Hello! My name is Tamara and I am a primary teacher from Toronto, Canada. I have been living and teaching in the UK since 2015. I have taught Foundation Stage, Year 1, Year 2, Year 4/5 as well as covered across all other year groups in KS2. I also have experience teaching Functional Skills Maths to adults 16-21. Alongside teaching, I have been tutoring for the past 8 years across all primary year groups as well as secondary year groups. I absolutely love teaching and believe that children learn best when their interests are considered. I tailor my tuition to each child, using their interests and their academic and emotional needs to plan a program that works for them. I have worked with children with special educational needs, including Autism Spectrum Disorder and Dyslexia.

I pride myself on my ability to identify and solve students' difficulties, helping them to 'get unstuck' and teaching them the skills they need to become independent and enthusiastic learners. No matter your starting point, I can meet you where you are at and get you where you want to be. I am used to using a variety of approaches depending on class size (individual or small group), student age, and the goals of the student. My focus is on helping my students to understand the learning process, so that they can ask the right questions and take charge of their own learning. I will provide you with resources and guidance to help you practise independently so that you can build on the progress you make in your lessons with me. I have a thorough knowledge of several exam syllabuses and can teach you the techniques you need to do well in exams, but I also want to help you set your own targets and have fun with your learning!

My name is Lydia J. ( also known as " The Maths Specialist"). I am a creative, outgoing and experienced tutor with a contagious passion for maths whose mission is to infect every student I meet with the love for maths.
I have been teaching maths since I was 17 and I am 44 years old now. It's been 27 years since I first started teaching maths. If you or your child struggles with maths and you want results then you have come to the right person.
The study of mathematics, like the Nile, begins in minuteness but ends in magnificence - Charles Caleb Cotton.
These days, anyone who hears me say, "I love maths" thinks I've always loved maths but that's far from the truth. I struggled with maths and even failed my GCE in maths ( an equivalent of GCSE).
So many teachers tried teaching me but I just could not grasp the concepts because they used the same methods I struggled with at school and never worked on finding out what the cracks were in my knowledge. A house built on a faulty foundation cannot stand the test of time.
One day I met the greatest teacher in the world, in my opinion, because not only was he able to teach me maths but he made me love maths. The quote above pretty much sums up how he taught me. He started from the basics, no assumptions made and he used all sorts of new methods to teach me. He showed me that there were so many ways to learn any topic.
I retook my GCE in maths and got the highest grade possible, won an award in maths, studied engineering, taught other students that were tagged "hopeless in maths" and got my daughter ready for her GCSE in maths at a very young age.
It doesn't matter how 'bad' any one is at maths, if they have a desire to learn and time, I can teach them. I am not just any other maths tutor. I am one that produces results.

He is currently studying at Trinity Laban Conservatoire of Music and Dance as an undergraduate in composition.
His work has been called 'Chilling, thrilling and entrancing' by Stephen Fry, 'There's dissipation, despair, erotic shivering and fabulous tension in the air'. An adventurous harmonic language, intense lyricism and a colourful sense of timbre all characterise his music. Often writing for smaller ensembles, he is equally adapt composing for larger forces too.
The world of contemporary music is extraordinarily varied. For Morgan, embracing all aspects of this and taking hints of inspiration from a variety of sources, is key to creating a unique and personal sound-world.

Current Head of Geography, teaching from KS3 - KS5. Specialise in AQA specification, but also have experience with Ed-Excel.
Calm and patient and enjoy working with individuals keen to improve, with some motivation to suceed. I like to focus especially on looking at exam technique and work with students to develop and model good practice and deepen subject knoweledge.
A - level is much current specialism and teach across both the human and phyiscal sides of the course and as a result I can help them think 'synoptically' in their responses.

Originally, I am from Germany, but I have lived and studied in the UK for almost 5 years now. I have an undergraduate degree in English Literature, where I was awarded a prize for having achieved the highest marks in my year, and a Master’s in Comparative Literature.
As you can tell, languages have been one of my passions for years and as I am approaching my academic career, I want to share this excitement for languages and literatures with you and help you feel confident. Aside from being a native speaker in German and fluent in English, I have learned multiple languages in a classroom-based setting over the years. I have had French at school and university level, and I am still taking classes in Mandarin Chinese. I know what it means to learn a foreign language, both the exciting as well as the challenging parts. These experiences are the very foundation of the way I teach, which is individually tailored to my students’ needs and interests. We can focus on conversational English grammar, but I also have experience in writing applications for universities, cover letters and doing practice interviews. At university level, I teach topics related to World Literature, Postcolonialism and Comparative Literature. Let me know what you want to learn, and I will tailor our lessons specifically to your requests.

I am a passionate and dedicated individual when it comes to the education of children. Nothing makes me happier than supporting a child in their education and finding ways together to help with their understanding. I am deeply caring and always treat every pupil with the upmost compassion and respect. I have many years experience working with children at primary age. I was a teaching assistant working 1 to 1 with children from aged 5 through to age 11 including at times taking classes of 30 children myself if a teacher was absent.
I am degree educated earning a 2:1 Bachelors Degree in Education. I performed well in my GCSE’s and A Levels too.
I hope you consider me as your tutor and I really look forward to working with you and your child. I wish you the best.
