With over a decade working in education and private tuition, I have extensive experience in preparing students for National exams. Academically, I focus on English Language and Literature, French and Spanish. I also have a wealth of experience in successfully preparing students for the Foundation Tier Maths exam.
At GCSE and IGCSE level I have experience teaching all of the major exam boards including AQA, Pearson Edexcel, WJEC, CIE and OCR. There isn't a great deal of variation between the different boards in terms of content as GCSE level is largely standardised. Nevertheless it does help to be familiar with the variation in the emphasis of a particular syllabus and the format of the exam paper.
I hold a BA and MA in Modern Languages from the University of Oxford. I found the tutorial experience offered at Oxord University to be a revelatory way of learning and so when beginning my career in education, from an early stage, this became the route I decided to pursue.
In my teaching and tuition career I have work with many of the most reputable tuition agencies in the UK and overseas, specifically the Profs (UK), Modelex (Monaco) and Living Learning English (UK). All three are industry-leading, award-winning agencies with rigorous selection criteria for their academic tutors and the highest standards of integrity and professionalism. In addition to working with these agencies, as an individual tutor I'm a full-member of the National Tutors' Association, the national body upholding standards of professionalism and ethics within the UK Tuition industry.

I am passionate about supporting your child to reach their full potential. In collaboration with yourselves and your child, I will construct and adapt my curriculum to best support their individual needs. While I can offer support elsewhere, my best knowledge is with the GCSE and A Level AQA scheme. Skills that I seek fo develop are:
- reading comprehension
- essay writing
- exam technique
- understanding of a text
I also feel that enjoyment of the texts is key to building confidence in the subject, and will provide tailored 1:1 teaching to do so. English literature is a rich and interesting subject that can sometimes feel intimidating to some students, but over the course of tutoring we will remove these barriers and make learning accessible and fun!

As an experienced teacher with over 12 years experience in both the state and independent sector, I am able to provide support with English Language or English Literature. I have prepared pupils for AQA GCSE, WJEC GCSE and also the IGCSE examinations.
In addition, I have also taught both English Language and English Literature at A level and I have worked as an examiner for A level Literature. I can provide targeted support with A level coursework or examination components.
Furthermore, as the Key Stage 3 English coordinator in my school, I have an excellent knowledge of the skills required in Year 7, Year 8, and Year 9.
I can offer short-term or long-term courses to help your child achieve their goals.
Do get in touch if you would like more information about my experience or if you would like to talk about your child's specific targets. I look forward to hearing from you!

I’ve been teaching now for 25+ years. During that time I’ve taught the whole age and ability range from age 11 to A level. Since 2011 I have been tutoring one to one and also small groups. So far all of my students have achieved their required grades.
I have taught in schools and colleges at home as well as abroad. I am still enthusiastic and able to tailor my lessons to suit all individuals, including those with extra educational needs. In my home I have a designated teaching room where I have all my resources too. As long as the student is within a reasonable distance I would be happy to travel.
As well as my vast teaching experience, I also write. My work has been published in The Guardian, The Times Educational Supplement and some online publications. I have also had a novel published - in 2014.

My name is Alexiane G., a 25 year-old French native speaker and fluent in English. I have an English Language and Culture Degree from the University of Lille. I also have a good level of Spanish.
I am currently working as a Language Teaching Assistant in a 6th Form College in West Yorkshire. I am teaching different classes, from conversation classes to prepare the oral exam for the A-level, to cultural classes for non-French speakers. In this role, I have been doing a lot of administration job as well as the teaching side, and managing the team of teaching assistants.
I have been tutoring English and French for a number of years now. I usually work with children from the age of 5 to the age of 18, as well as working with adults who would be interested in learning or improving a language.

Having worked within Additional Educational Needs at Alderwasley (with A level Politics and GCSE History and Citizenship students); City and Guilds English and Maths at both Red Tape and Sheaf Training; AQA English Language at the SUFC Academy (ah, the enemy!); an EFL tutor at Birkdale; an Edexcel GCSE History examiner and privately in the subject areas of History, Politics, Drama and English Literature, and a spell at both Low Edges and Atwood Primary with many a colourful unicorn, I feel my abilities have been sufficiently honed to provide an insightful, compassionate and dedicated individual, who, not only loves his disciplines and the thrill of communicating, but does so with a sense of humour that only years of being a SWFC fan and Labour voter can bring. Moreover, my experience of performing has equipped me with the talent to convey information with erudition and intelligence. Incidentally, some of my plays have been produced in Sheffield, Leeds and London with the good folk of Leeds having had the equal good fortune of witnessing me grapple with musical theatre.

I would love to help other children going through GCSE's and SAT's and to boost their confidence. I hope to make children realise that with the right mindset, one that they realise if they work hard, they can do it and achieve good results. As someone who has just finished their GCSE's, the subjects are very much fresh in my mind. I would love to use any tips and tricks in which I have been taught that may differ to any others they have been given and to help them understand more.

Hi there, I am an experienced tutor offering Maths and Science lessons. I am a graduate from the University of Nottingham, where I studied Cancer Sciences.
I am passionate about science and mathematics, which is shown in my attainment "within the highest few hundred" at GCSE and A level. Therefore, I thoroughly enjoy helping students to achieve their aspirations and often exceed their academic expectations, and I have many happy clients who would testify to this.
I believe it is important for students to feel comfortable with their learning environment, so all sessions are specifically tailored for each student, ensuring that each session is effective.

I would love to help younger people with homework, classwork or general queries / struggles they're facing in school. I'm experienced with dealing with people of younger ages and with various disabilities. I specifically have a passion for music and for helping others to love and understand music. As a young person myself, I understand how to appeal, encourage and communicate with younger people. I am flexible with hours, and can work around your schedule. I enjoy helping people to achieve what they're capable of.
