Over the last two years, I have been at Currie High School and have just finished a year of teaching English at George Heriot's in Edinburgh, teaching S1 to S6 students. I thoroughly enjoyed both experineces interacting with pupils, acknowledging the criteria for success in the Scottish Curriculum for Excellence (no matter what that means for each individual) and understanding how best to help the curriculum become more accessible.
It is important, i feel, to overcome an attitude of "I can't do this!" and to work on tools that enable a student to feel more positive about his/her/their abillities. I would start the process by building on existing skills and progressing to strategies to make the project or task easier to complete.
At the centre of all this is the individual - in a non-threatening and encouraging environment, i believe that confidence can be developed...leading to competence. I like to get to know my pupils in a working relationship and to move on from there.
I can assist with English and American literature, poetry, grammar, creative essay-writing and literary essays, oral preparation and improvement of vocabulary or conversation classes, any project or assignments on GCSE or Scottish Curriculum for Excellence.
Description: (work) I really enjoy tutoring and the interaction with young people it affords me. To work together to overcome a challenging aspect of the curriculum is enormously satisfying. Despite the seriousness of the task that needs completing or the skill that needs to. be mastered, a bit of fun and laughter is also important though. Learning needn't be dull!
Description (of me): I am young at heart, enjoy (cheesy) puns and sometimes the silliness (and oddness) of English. Obviously, I thoroughly enjoy reading, particularly historical novels and more literary works and despite selling all my books from South Africa, I am well on my way to creating a new, personal library here in Edinburgh! My lovely dog, Lucy, is 15-years old and a very important member of the household - she is actually in charge!
The history of the UK is incredibly rich and my partner and I are working our way through all the interesting and significant sights - so much to see, so little time. My Scottish grandfather was born in Kelso, and it has been emotional coming back here to explore "his" country.

I like to keep my lessons fun and interactive even though we will be online - think games, quizzes and role play. If you have a specific goal in mind I am happy to cater our lessons specifically to your individual needs, for example, exam preparation or help with CV/personal statement writing. The ultimate goal is to make my pupils confident in their English skills.
With previous experience as a journalist and researcher, I know how important it is to be able to speak, read and write confidently and efficiently. It is often how we make our first impressions to new people we meet www.*** job interviews, phone calls and important applications to university or college. Being confident in your English skills can also help you to integrate with ease into new environments. I have now received my TEFL certificate in English tutoring. Which means I use effective tools and teaching methods that have been tried and tested by tutors all across the globe. These methods are guaranteed to help you reach your English goals and leave you feeling confident and accomplished!

My latest position was a senior tutor and module leader for the Sino - British cooperation programs between Staffordshire University and Chengdu University of Technology and later University of Stirling and Chengdu University.
When the department announced its plans to expand and open cooperations with new universities and new degrees, I saw this as an opportunity to teach media and journalism on the digital media programme as well as help in setting up a new department at a new partner university.

From the 2014 year I had managing positions at Bohdan Khmelnytskyi State Pedagogical University: Deputy Dean of the Philological Faculty for Educational Work (2012); Deputy Dean of the Philological Faculty for International Cooperation and Scientific Research(2015); Head of the Department of German Philology (2020). My tasks were to develop the faculty and manage students and staff. In 2016 I initiated the Educational Program “German Languages and Literature (including translation)” and in 2022 we got a positive accreditation of it. There are more than 100 students who got Bachelor’s and Master’s Degree. From 2021 to 2022 I was managing the Educational Courses for Children. I had four tutors under my supervision. Children improved their results in school and high school students successfully entered Universities.
As a lecturer, I always had to develop my professional skills and my students’ hard and soft skills. After my attendance international internship, my colleague and I organized a workshop for the staff and students of pedagogical specialties on how to develop soft skills during the classes and educational process. I have well-developed management skills, computer proficiency, leadership experience, communication skills, organizational know-how, collaboration talent, and problem-solving abilities.
As an experienced teacher, I am sure that respect is the most important component in any relationship. As a linguist and citizen of a multicultural city, I know how valuable to respect other cultures, nationalities, and their diversity.
As the Deputy Dean and the Head of the Department, I took part in the organization of various events, such as Ukrainian and International scientific conferences. I organized meetings and greeted people, providing their connection with each other, we always openly shared knowledge and skills to help each other to develop.
In 2014 I initiated an international project Double Diploma with the University College of Social Sciences (Chenstokhovo, Poland). As a result, nine students got Bachelor’s degrees and five students got Master’s Degree in Business English.
Most of my previous administrative work was related to arranging meetings, visits, and events, including requesting and issuing documentation, assisting in the editing and publishing of documents to promote the faculty, and advertising the Department's achievements.
As an administrative person, I had to support staff and students, contribute to their development, and at the same time explain or pass on complex or detailed information precisely and clearly to all participants of the educational process. Excellent time management and organizational skills and my ability to work under pressure helped me to communicate with different people and successfully run the Department.

My name is Laura O. and I am a master's student at the University of Edinburgh. I started my teaching process at the university by tutoring students who needed to organize their time. I am passionate about Spanish and I believe that learning it can open your horizon of experiences and prepare you for possible personal, academic, and professional opportunities. Besides that, Spanish is one of the most beautiful languages in the world!
I hope we can undertake this journey together and show you the wonders of the Spanish language.
