She finds that academic success is best achieved when students are really engaged with their subject. Georgie enables her tutees to get the grades they want but also teaches students to read deeply; skills which will benefit them throughout their education and later life. She finds that such a focus also helps students develop lateral thinking methods, important for Oxbridge interview.
She has wide experience teaching a range of subjects and syllabuses - from Primary to Undergraduate. She is experienced with a range of exam boards including Edexcel, AQA, Pre-U, OCR and WJEC.

In addition, I have served as the Head of English & PBL at a private elementary & junior high school, as the Academic Director of a test prep centre, and have provided educational consultancy & tutor training to Oxford's oldest tutorial college.
I am focused and driven; I tutored for Kaplan Test Prep for 20-years serving 10,000 students. My students dominate exams; I am very excited for them and for the opportunities that lay ahead of them!!
Paul's last completed A Level Creative Writing job with Kevin: 1-2 hrs/week - I need a creative writing portfolio with one factual piece and 3 or 4 creative pieces to apply to a hnc course in professional writing.
I'm a recent History & Spanish graduate from UCL, with over 1500+ hours worth of experience of dedicated one-to-one tuition across multiple subjects and over 60 students. 80% of my students have achieved their first choice school and 90% have reached or achieved beyond their target grades, with the majority achieving As/A*s or 8/9s at GCSE.
If you're a prospective History student, I have expertise in all the main exam boards (AQA, OCR, EDEXCEL, Cambridge iGCSE) and further specialize in coursework assistance. All of my previous students have achieved their target grade or higher, with many achieving 9s and As and A*s at A-Level. I also offer tuition for undergraduate level, particularly for dissertation/coursework assistance, planning and writing.
For Spanish students, I like to take an adaptive approach to tutoring and go at the student's pace. I try to place a lot of emphasis on getting you to practice as much as possible, especially with the speaking and writing components. I know the AQA and Edexcel exam boards inside out and often conduct the official oral exam with my students.
Furthermore, I tutor English all the way up from 7+ to A-Level, but mainly focus on GCSE English Language and Literature and particularly specialize in writing and analysis skills. Have covered majority of the set texts but please specify which texts you're doing if you're looking for help with the Literature exam or coursework.
I have been tutoring for the past two years, both in person and online, teaching primarily English Language and English Literature to a range of students. I have students at the age of 4 and 5 who I am teaching to read and write before they begin school, students who are at Key stage 1 and 2 level, to whom I offer assistance on improving and developing their skills in reading and comprehension as well as writing and sentence development. I also teach 11+ English and 13+ English as well as GCSE. At GCSE level I have worked with students on their coursework, both creative writing and essay writing. I have also worked with students on their text analysis and composition skills, assisting them with writing techniques and exam practice. At A Level, I work with students studying English Literature, and Drama and Theatre Studies. At this stage, I have noticed that often students require assistance with learning to structure their arguments and also with revision skills as well as a focus on the subjects and information they are working with. When working with students at University Level, I have mostly taken sessions online, offering support with critical thinking and developing an argument in essay writing. I am always concerned with engaging with my students properly; really listening to them and then finding a method of tutoring which will be most useful to them. I believe that no student is the same, and therefore all students require specific tuition which is designed around their needs.
Providing IT tuition as part of existing work roles for past 19 years.
I have been a professional film maker for over 14 years for both corporate and film drama.
I am a highly qualified and experienced tutor of English and the Humanities with a PhD in English Literature and Creative Writing from the University of Manchester.
I have experience tutoring all humanities and social science subjects to a high standard up to degree level. I have a lot of experience preparing students for exams and an exemplary record in improving their grades and confidence quickly. This year on average my GCSE students improved by more than 2 grades.
Many of my students are being home educated, or need some extra support aside from exams, and I specialise in being a flexible tutor, who can teach a variety of subjects in engaging ways. I have designed curriculum for home educated students and figured out ways to incorporate education into games, projects and experiments. I love working with parents and children to find what they need from education.
I also particularly focus on special needs tutoring, including home-schooled students, and those with a variety of additional needs. I have many students with dyslexia and other specific learning difficulties. Additionally, I have a lot of academic experience in Disability Studies. I have a Dyslexia Training Certificate, a Certificate in Specific Learning Difficulties and have passed the core modules from The National Autistic Society.
TEFL specialist fully certified. Experience (6 years online) ranges from low level English ability to preparing students for IELTS and TOEIC exams.
Dance and drama specialist and lecturer, 20 years.
BA (Visual Arts and Performing Arts)
My experiences of tutoring in a school as well as teaching drama have taught me that people learn in different ways, and that it's important to be able to adopt a style of tutoring that works for your student. Not everyone gets everything the first time around (least of all me), but at the same time you don't want to spend ages on something you know you understand. As a tutor I am both patient and challenging, whichever is appropriate to the student and their circumstances.
I have been teaching in classrooms and one-to-one settings since 2010. I particularly enjoy the chance to work creatively with individually with students to help them reach their full potential. Most recently, I have been working with university English literature students with their studies in environmental literature, 19th and early 20th century literature and poetry and with their dissertation projects. I have previously helped A-level, GCSE, IGCSE and university students and adult learners to flourish in their academic studies.
