After excelling in the fields of Sociology and Religious studies i would like to pass on my knowledge in a fun and inspiring way.
lessons pre planned and tailored to individual students age requirements and needs in order to help them excel and flourish within there subject.
Primary Maths, English, Grammar, Spelling and SATs prep lessons in Coventry, UK.
I am a 65 years old tutor of predominantly History and Politics, with English and Religious Studies as my supplementary subjects.
Willing to teach on-line by Skype (preferred) or Zoom, as well as person-to-person.
As you will note from my qualifications and professional experience, I have taught all four subjects for some 35 years, at College, University, Sixth Form College and High School. While the majority of my teaching has been in the UK, mainly in Birmingham, London and Bristol, nevertheless I have also taught abroad at university in the Philippines. Additionally, I have been an A'Level Politics and History examiner for the former London and Oxford & Cambridge boards in the 1990s and early post-millennium decade. So also, have I written course brochures for the History and Politics Distance - learning programmes for the National Extension College, Cambridge. All of this has added up to my having acquired a broad professional experience, which I put to the benefit of my students.
My teaching style is very much subject and communication based, with the emphasis applying knowledge and essay skills towards achieving the best exam results. There is also a priority attached to reading and grammar skills, both of which appear to be neglected by the contemporary British educational establishment. Hopefully I can use my experience and robust teaching methods towards enabling students to gain their best performance in exams and careers. - Please also note that I am happy to tutor students on-line - ie. Skype (Preferred) or Zoom, and have a fair experience of this kind of teaching.
Hello!
My name is Najma and I study History at the University of Birmingham. I studied History, English Lit and Religious Studies at A-Level so I understand the stresses that come with essay-based subjects!
Throughout my life, I have been taught by some incredible tutors and I hope that I can not only help you succeed in your exams, but also grow in confidence.
I aim to make the sessions as relaxed as possible as I know how stressful school can get. My sessions will be tailored to you, ensuring that your academic needs are met. In order to find out what you want to work on, we can have a Trial session where we can get to know other as well as discussing your goals. From there, I will make a thorough lesson plan which specifically caters to you.
During the sessions, an emphasis will be placed on exam techniques which will allow you to answer questions effectively. I will also offer useful revision tips and help you make resources (to spare you the chaos that is last-minute flashcard-making!)

Hi!
My name is Alexandra and I am a 19 year old student currently studying a Theology and Religion degree at the University of Birmingham.
I would describe myself as a friendly and compassionate tutor, with a huge passion for Religious Studies. My hardworking nature and strong understanding for the subject propelled me to secure an A* at GCSE, and an A at AS-Level. I also have a DBS check that I am able to provide upon request.
My tutoring style is very personalised, as I take each tutee on a case by case basis, adapting and changing the topics and session focus to best suit your needs. I have skills and experience regarding both the subject content and exam/essay structure, so we can tailor our sessions to focus on your specific aims.
I completed my time at Sutton Coldfield Grammar School for Girls with 10 GCSE's (2A*, 8A, B), and 3 A-Level's (A, B, C), as well as a grade A in the Extended Project Qualification ('To What Extent does the Bible and Further Gnostic Texts Portray an Accurate Representation of Jesus?') which further highlights my skills and enthusiasm for religious studies and essay/academic writing.
I am now in my second year of study at university, and have gained some fantastic experience during my education to further improve my degree level understanding and enthusiasm for the subject, such as writing blogs for Newman University to highlight use and interpretation/analysis of the Bible.
I hope that my warm personality, combined with my qualifications, tutoring style and passion for Religious Studies, show that I can be a suitable and reliable choice to help you achieve your goals and better your understanding within this subject area.
Hope to hear from you,
Alexandra
Please note that I mainly teach Biology (AQA) and Maths (Pearson Edexcel) GCSE in foundation tiers as I have more experience within the specification for this tier, however Higher may be possible but not guaranteed.
*Religious Studies is only AQA Christianity and Islam as these are the only two religions I have experience in*
Thanks for understanding
