For over twenty years I was an English/French teacher to students between the ages of 3 to 19.
I also have over thirty years of experience in teaching English, French, Romanian, Mathematics and Physics in private. The objectives varied from reaching higher level of achievement (facilitating the admission to elite schools, higher educational programs or award of scholarships) to getting better school results, feeling more confident, developping academic and social skills.

As a fully qualified and experienced French & Spanish Teacher with a QTS, I provide professional and effective tutoring to children, teenagers or adults who would like to start or continue learning French and Spanish for pleasure, travel or study. I particularly prepare students for GCSE & A-level as well as students in KS3&4 in French.
I encourage engagement in my lessons and wish to provide a space where students feel comfortable to ask questions or say they are unsure. Through continual praise and encouragement, I am well suited to be able to help students that are anxious or cannot grasp areas of their subjects. I provide a plan of action for going forward and keep parents consulted on their child’s progress. I am also happy to set homework questions to build upon the skills covered in the lessons and will mark and give feedback on any work completed.
I have successfully helped dozens of students to get A, B or C grades in PET, FCE and CAE Cambridge exams and have prepared a lot of young people and adults to get ready for School, universities in Europe or work. I prepare also students to learn or improve their Spanish, work for levels A1 and A2, respectively KS2 and KS3.

Successful preparation for IELTS
Improved knowledge, fluency and self-confidence in speaking and writing as well as in all the language skills
Professional tutoring, excellent knowledge in English, French , Spanish and Bulgarian which I can sucessfully transfer to my students.
Incessant support and student-friendly environment.
As a CELTA and an ESL teacher, I have experience in working with different types of students, of various ages and backgrounds. My lessons are fast-paced, engaging and effective. Let's do it together, it'll be easier and more fun!
The platforms I use to teach online are Microsoft teams, Zoom or Skype.
The ability to experience each student’s progress at every stage is incredibly rewarding and a wonderful part of my role as a tutor. I am looking forward to teaching your son/daughter and motivating them for their language improvement!
I am a qualified midwife since 1995.
I trained in Kerkrade with the PBL system and as students we already had to mentor our junior peers, which only increased our own learning.
I have taught and set up different antenatal classes (for several groups; parents, teenagers) and made lesson programmes when working as a clinical trainer and for my own students when working as a midwife.
Student midwives in the Netherlands are taught and trained to be independent medical specialists, not nurses, so I trained with GP trainees, junior obstetricians and medical students. Part of our training was in depth anatomy, physiology, pathophysiology, medicine management, gynaecology,family medicine and business management.
I did the Student mentorship programme in the Netherlands (Midwifery Academy Amsterdam) in 2003, I have my NMC accredited midwifery practice supervisor and assessor certificate too.
I am at the moment writing my dissertation for my masters in Education course (University of Hull) and hope to graduate in May 2024; I recently passed an SVQ level 3 course in teaching too.
I am NMC registered, I have a full DBS (on update service) and a full PVG (Scotland).
I mentored students from different healthcare settings and in the Netherlands and in the UK (midwifery, medical , nursing, paramedics and HCA/MCA), set up my own lesson plans and my students were always really appreciative for my teachings, they said it was fun and with the way I taught they could remember their theory much better, not only for exams but I taught them lifelong learning.
I prepared my 3 daughters for their GCSE and A level Dutch language exams and currently I help my daughter who studies medicine at Glasgow University (4th year) to revise for her practical exams.
I want to move from active midwifery into a more educational role, using the interprofessional experience, skills and knowledge that I gained over the years.
I am a big believer in interprofessional learning and scenario based learning; I did my VWO (comparable to A levels) in the Netherlands (Dutch, English, German, French, Biology, Chemistry and History.
I like teaching in small groups and on a one to one basis .
I also like to learn for and with my students.
The dissertation for my masters in Education (Hull, I hope to graduate in May 2024) is about a digital app for global healthcare education.
I am an extremely experienced tutor and I have a proven track record of success. My style is lively, engaging and encouraging. I find out what a pupil's needs are and then provide the skills, knowledge and approach to meet those needs.
As a Head of the Languages Department and Primary and Secondary Teacher in a school in Leighton Buzzard for over 10 years, I believe I am the right language tutor for you!
I'm fluent in Spanish, ( my native language) French, and English and have spent many years teaching and studying languages. I completed a bachelor's degree in Spanish and English at Manchester/ALmeria University (2008) and studied Spanish and English Literature in school (GCSE and A-Level) so I know how daunting grammar can sometimes feel and how stressful language/literature exams can be... but also how great it feels when you finally start getting it!
On the language side of things, I can help you with your writing, listening, speaking, grammar, and exam technique. I can help you with conversational skills if you're just looking to go traveling or make Spanish/French friends.
On the literature side of things, a large part of my degree was literature-based, so I would be very happy to help any Literature students if you are struggling with the subject.
If you're in school and really want to get an A/A* (7/8/9), I can make sure you achieve your goal. Whatever your current grade, an A/ A*/7/8/9 is achievable. I have taught these exams for many years so I know how they work and how you can do well in them. We will work closely with the syllabus and go through some secrets of exam technique to make sure you get a top grade.
Alternatively, if you're wanting to learn languages for travel or business purposes (or just for fun!) we can tailor the lessons 100% to suit your needs. I also teach courses to adults from beginners to advanced and I always tailored to each student's need. I also teach English to foreigners to achieve the Cambridge Examinations ( A1 to C1).
I effectively deliver and plan online outstanding lessons and the feedback that I have received from parents, pupils, and adult learners have always been very stimulating. I strongly believe in the student centered-approach as always shown in my lesson plans. I believe that all students are individuals with very specific needs so differentiation has always been at the forefront of my teaching practice. I find it very important to address any students’ needs in order to get the best potential out of every single student. I am successful in establishing high expectations of behavior in the classroom whilst still developing positive relationships with my classes.
I love online teaching as well as face to face. I have been doing online experience for the last 5 years and I have helped most of my students to achieve an excellent language level. I use Google Meets, Google Classroom, or even Skype for online teaching. I generally send and post great, fun, and genuine resources so that the student can access them easily and successfully. There are so many fun online resources that I could provide you to enhance your language skills, especially in Speaking; what a great way to speak the language with a native speaker! You will also gain a broad cultural awareness and your fluency and pronunciation will speed up!
Contact me and ask what it is that you need and I will make sure you will get the best of your language skills!
On the other hand, I am a 200hr yoga certified instructor for the last 2 years and I can give you online 1-1 lessons from beginners to more advanced practitioners. I can also give the online yoga class via zoom to you and your whole family! If you have children, you will be glad to know that I have trained to teach kids yoga and I have been organizing yoga workshops in primary and secondary schools.

I have been teaching for over 24 years. My experience is in tutoring and teaching English/Maths/IELTS/Esol in schools and colleges. I have been teaching on line for 5 years. I have a BA in Education, Celta, Cert-Ed teaching qualification.
My passion to teach Design and Technology stems from my university degree background in Home Economics (BSc and MSc) and my considerable teaching experience in this field.
I completed my NQT at Hans Price Academy in July 2014,along having completed the PGCE D&T in 2013 at the University of the West of England and obtained QTS. These qualifications have added to my international experience of lecturing in Art and Design to BSc level and teaching to GCSE in educational institutions in Pakistan.
I am now confident at imparting knowledge and practical skills to students of differing ability levels and behaviour. I am familiar with the curriculum requirements of Key Stage 3 and 4 in Food preparation and Nutrition, Resistant Material, Graphics and Textiles and have also taught ancillary subjects: Personal Social and Health Education; and Careers. I have also been involved in school enrichment and clubs at my school such as: the ‘Cookery Club’ focusing on healthy recipes and a celebration cake for Christmas; ‘Coursework catch-up’ that, offered extra sessions in GCSE Food Preparation and Nutrition, Resistant Materials and Graphics ( CAD/CAM); and ‘Homework Club’. I am keen to offer these pastoral and extra-curricular contributions in my next appointment and also will be actively involving myself in other lessons and activities at the school.
With my past experience and through the recent academic and extra-curricular activities I have participated in I believe I now understand the way children learn and use this to maximise their benefit from the lessons I plan. Each child I teach is encouraged to develop through a tailored personalised programme by using contributions from a range of professional inputs. This is achieved by developing an environment where the pupil and I have an understanding of clarity, mutual respect and fairness between us. Believing successful learning accrues from making the subject matter relevant and accessible through differentiation I initially identify and target the Gifted and Able, the Average and those students who are in greater need of support and I use Individualized Education Programs to best facilitate their learning. Also, I identify those who have English as an additional language and support their needs.
I understand that it is not just ability that should be differentiated but behaviour also. When presented with challenging behaviour rather than viewing negatively I see this as a challenge which both stimulates my interest and my commitment to push these students to higher levels. I have developed learning strategies and found my students have interacted more, becoming less disruptive and performing better. I found this experience to be personally rewarding.
I derive my goals of the learning process from Bloom’s Taxonomy and concentrate on the combined areas of Knowledge, Skills and Attitude. By addressing each of these pillars I feel the pupil is able to acquire a complete understanding of the subject matter. This develops a higher form of education focusing on analysing and interpreting rather than just remembering facts.
As part of the learning process I find it helpful to engage with and encourage parents to participate in their child’s education and have found this to have a positive effect.
Assessment is an integral part of my lesson preparation. My experience of marking Key Stage 3 & 4 theory and practical work using the formative assessment technique and learning dialogue has meant I am able to focus on educational needs. Learning is a journey and if a check is kept on students’ learning by identifying ‘What went well’ and ‘How to improve’ they perform better. I regularly ask students to keep a record of their thoughts and how they hope to act on my comments. I use students’ grades for target setting during plenary sessions.
As I have matured in my approach to teaching, the knowledge and understanding I have developed has naturally become part of my practice. One such example is using the Every Child Matter outcomes in planning a ‘Fruit Salad’ lesson: using seasonal fruits to stay healthy; awareness of health and safety with cutting/chopping; enjoying the preparation and feeling achievement when taking home a tasty fruit salad; contributing positively as part of a team; and using home ingredients to keep simple and costs low.
From the extra-curricular perspective I like to play a full and active part in the school’s life. I encourage teacher-student relationship-building exercises and one such example was a trip to Laser Quest. Although a fun day out and reward for hard work, the trip had the important objective of developing the student/teacher rapport. This excursion was kept within the boundaries of health and safety and the policies of the School.
I am constantly reassessing myself and working to develop personally and professionally and so I regularly attend after school meetings. To update my health and safety practices I completed the DATA safety course. In order to acquire additional knowledge of the UK’s attitude to food I attended the Chartered Institute of Environmental Health course on Food Safety and the Licence to Cook course. I have gained proficiency in Information Technology (IT) through completing the Computer Literacy and Information Technology and the European Computer Driving Licence courses. I use these skills in IT to make my lessons more visually appealing and stimulating to pupils who now are proficient with graphics and computers. At Hans Price Academy I have used Corel draw 12, Creo, illustrator and Pro desk top 8 softwares in my key stage 3 Product Design lessons and generate plan schemes of work for my Key stage 4 COPE group – Food and Catering based on healthy eating. Through my background I have introduced various multicultural cooking in my food lessons too.
Through my passion for Design and Technology I have developed a literacy, Stage 3 booklet which will help students to attain higher levels. I also run a series of extra curricular after school salt dough modelling and photo editing workshops. These have been met with great enthusiasm and attended by students across the whole school. I have taken part and encouraged fun day initiatives which include house musicals and leading on assemblies.
I believe teaching to be a vocation and am willing to contribute and support the team and go the extra mile. A teacher must strive to bring out sensitively the best in pupils, parents, oneself, colleagues and the school itself. It is the collective responsibility of all users of the school to improve the environment as a place of learning. The role of a good school is to provide a learning environment where pupils are keen and happy to attend whilst enjoying learning on a daily basis. It is a place where pupils are taught the importance of learning and the benefits and what can be accomplished by it.
I have trained food assistants and NQT to inspire, motivate and challenge pupils by setting high expectations in practical sessions. My plan for a session is always to initially to draw attention to the health and safety issues in the practical sessions and follow-up with the learning objectives.
I use an interactive style with my pupils so they are able to ask questions so as to feel comfortable and understand what is required of them in a safe and stimulating environment. During sessions I interact with the pupils, and encourage my Teacher assistant and NQT to do the same, so as to mentally stretch and stimulate the pupil in order to maximise their potential during these learning exercises.
I have been able to show and explain to the colleague how to plan and make the Literacy based project booklets. How to assess the progress of the students during that session how to explain clarify the misconceptions in order to make a memorable experience for the students.
I am able to create stimulating environment with mutual respect , e.g. from the start of lessons students clearly knows their targets and their current levels, they are clearly explained through detailed and effective tracker system, what they need to be focusing on to achieve higher grades. I always try to share the bigger picture to students in timely manner.
I collaboratively work with other colleagues and contributed through effective Professional Development coaching sessions. Based on development and implementation of various coaching strategies that lead to good progress and outcomes. I try to met regularly on fortnight to discuss and exchange notes and try the strategies in lessons.
I also Completed my Emerging Middle Leader course, which gave me the opportunity to help, guide and support my fellow colleagues in the schools’ wider community.
I always demonstrated secure subject knowledge and kept myself updated with current changes. In lockdown I done various online Professional Development sessions to keep myself updated and in line with National Curriculum.
I collaboratively work with Professional Development colleagues and supported various teaching strategies by experimenting the technique on students and assessing their progress of learning .
My Priority always has been for students to achieve good grades and progress in life is always , E.g the non- attenders and vulnerable students in my Year groups whose attendance was below 70%. By collaboratively working with College leaders, mentors, Head of department and ELT, I arranged catchup sessions in lunch,break and afterschool time for them to motivate and build positive relationship with them which lead them to complete and achieve reasonable good grades especially in GCSE.
I have been actively moderating the GCSE Food Preparation course work with senior members of CLF federation. Which greatly help to understand and help students to achieve good grades in course work.
On other hand I collaboratively worked with SENCO of Schools to offer students the experience of doing cooking practical and learning new skills in a secure and friendly environment. All students had various individual complex behaviour needs, I was able to build good relationships and offer memorable experience to them. They were able to adapt to the situation and behaved very well. I am also have been the active member of the school engage centre, to support and teach 1-2-1 sessions to students identified with special requirements, such as teaching DT sessions and cooking practices for the ones who missed out regular lessons and EAL to build bridges to overcome language barrier, especially year 11 students in order to help them at least achieve level 1 for college course.
I was invited to be part of the CLF Food Curators team, I planned and designed the collaboratively the Year 7 and 8 scheme of work to go live at the time of lock down ( which is available on CLF website).
I always try my best to give the students every opportunity to exceed in life.
I teach English language and music. First, my experience of teaching music. I have extensive experience of working with students at all levels. I have undergraduate and postgraduate degrees in music. I have taught music for the Open University and currently teach music for Rose Bruford College of Theatre and Performance, where my specialty is the history of opera. I am also a senior member of the examinations team for music at the International Baccalaureate Organisation, with particular responsibility for the extended essay in music ( a subject I have written a guide on). My role with IBO involves setting the standard for the extended essay, in consultation with my colleagues, and then leading a team of examiners with the aim of ensuring that the standard is adhered to. I am a trustee of the Society for Music Analysis, the UK's leading learned society for the promotion of the study of music analysis. I have contributed papers to international conferences and founded Theory of Music Ltd a not-for-profit company which provides free and low-cost resources for the study of the history and theory of music. I have extensive experience of teaching online as well as face to face. I am particularly interested in teaching music history and theory.
Second, my experience of teaching English language. I have extensive experience of teaching adult students. I have taught corporate clients for the past 10 years and for the previous 4 years was an IELTS instructor for Aston American University. I taught students online worldwide and helped many students achieve the result they needed in the test. Lessons were usually conducted on zoom or Skype. I also wrote a PTE Academic Test of English course for Aston American. I have published degree level distance learning courses and occasional reviews, e.g. in the Times Higher Education Supplement. I very much enjoy meeting students from different cultures and helping them achieve their goals.
I have been teaching as a private tutor in the private education sector independently and through agencies across Hampshire for over fifteen years. I tutor full time and this is my business and full time career. Therefore, unlike many teachers who do a few private lessons here and there, I am fully committed and can spend all of my time preparing lessons and focusing on just my private students. I have taught children who are being home schooled, pupils who need some one to one tuition, group tuition, helped to run successful revision courses through an agency and prepared pupils for exams such as Common Entrance, GCSE's and SAT's (all of which I have had successful results with and have kept a record of.)
I have experience of working with several learning difficulties as well as behavioural problems.
I have taught in several schools across Hampshire and other areas of the country.
I am extremely familiar with The National Curriculum, different syllabuses and the variety of examination boards that schools use #/k#and stick to following these.
I have a firm, fun but fair approach to tuition and encourage pupils to work to the best of their ability through praise and reward. I always follow up lessons with advise on what areas need to be improved upon, followed by a positive and encouraging remark about the pupil's work so that confidence is not lost.
I enjoy providing parent's with continual progress reports after each session and offer advise as and when it is needed. I am happy to provide references on request.
I always offer an initial assessment before sessions commence so that I can get a general idea of how I can help the student, and for the student to see whether they like my teaching style. After the assessment, lessons are carefully planned and prepared to meet each individual's needs/requirements. Continual support via e mail is offered (especially for those special cases like exam times, which as we all know can be very stressful for the parent and the student.)

Hi,
I am Cristiane a passionate EAL academic coach
I help students from all over the world to reach their dreams by achieving the grades they need in their GCSE, at the same time supporting individuals to overcome cultural barriers so that they can integrate within the community.
I teach English as a foreign language and also prep students to pass international language exams.
I'm also a yoga & wellness teacher.
I am a well-motivated, highly conscientious English teacher of students aged 9 to adult, including speakers of other languages. I want to inspire my learners to exceed expecations. I firmly believe that the key to excellent teaching and learning is to make the approach ‘student-centred'.
I have taught English Language and Literature in independent and maintained schools for 31 years, preparing students for ISEB Common Entrance, SATs, GCSE and A Level. Additional experience includes teaching English to speakers of other languages, either for general purposes or in preparation for the University of Cambridge Examinations, KET, PET, FCE, CAE and CPE and IELTS. During my career, I have been a Head of Department and SENCO. Until recently, I have been based in schools but now wish to focus on online tutoring, which I believe suit a large number of learners extremely well.

English (ESOL)- I have Cambridge CELTA qualification and also I'm a student of TESOL and Linguistics at Bishop's Grosseteste University in Lincoln.
Turkish (as a second language)- I completed a PTLLS (Preparing to teach in the Life Long Learning Sector) course to be able to teach Turkish.
I have worked in a local secondary school for five years, and as Assistant Subject Leader in English for three years.
I currently teach the GCSE AQA Language and Literature specifications as well as A Level AQA English Language and Literature.
I qualified as 'Outstanding' in my teaching practice through the University of Birmingham's SCITT programme. I have since worked in a local secondary school and regularly receive 'Outstanding' observations.
Before teaching in a secondary school, I qualified in tTeaching English as a Foreign Language' (CELTA qualification) and taught English in Seville, Spain.
I offer bespoke tutoring and have been tutoring intermittently for nearly eight years.
The classroom space has been an avenue to put my theoretical knowledge and teaching strategies into practice. I teach English for specific purposes, English grammar, English vocabulary and English composition to beginners, intermediate and advanced level learners. I employ diverse strategies such as the communicative language teaching (CLT), task-based language teaching method, the Dogme approach, etc., depending on learners’ proficiency level. I incorporate real life objects which learners can easily relate to (Realia), trending topics and current world events in my lessons to keep my lessons fresh and relevant. This helps learners connect their learning experiences in the classroom to the world around them.
In addition, I encourage active learners’ involvement in my lessons through engaging activities, feedback and assessment reports employing role play activities, student led presentations, debates and break out room sessions (for virtual classes). My teaching practice aims to support learners in their quest to improve their English skills. As an ESOL tutor, I am saddled with the responsibility of providing quality English lessons, I prepare lesson materials that suit learners’ needs, considering factors such as age, background, and proficiency level.
I have taught primary level pupils (age 5-10), secondary school students (age 10-16). I have also developed my pedagogical skills through teaching opportunities in summer schools in the UK (2022 and 2023 in Perth and Edinburgh respectively). I taught English to teenagers from Italy, Brazil, and Spain providing English lessons in their preparation for the Trinity GESE exam, working both individually and collaboratively with various staff members.
I demonstrate some leadership skills such as relationship building, problem solving, critical thinking, time management, resilience, innovation, and adaptability both in my teaching practice and outside practice. In my leisure time, I participate actively in a charity organization in Dundee, especially every weekend, where I sing, play the drums and the guitar. I also take a leading role in the youth arm of this organization.
