Shane - London£26
£26GCSE/SAT/11+ Tutor - Maths, English, Science. (Any ages up to 18)
This class is the perfect way to get your child to where they want to be academically. Mathematics, English, and Science are available up to GCSE level, at which many exam boards are available. After lockdown, many kids are struggling across the country and tutoring is the ultimate way to catch them back up to speed. For all subjects available, classes are designed with the goal of making sure students understand the content rather than remembering them which gives them the upper hand in their final exam. This involves regular homework which will be marked outside of classtime, but will be reviewed with the student in the class to help outline and learn from mistakes. English: The English classes are specifically made to help improve reading comprehension and writing abilities, from creative to analytical writing. These skills are essential for success in GCSE English Literature and Language across any exam board. There are also English Classes available for kids sitting their SAT's and 11+ exams. The classes are designed to improve English profiency and prepare them for success in their final exams. Maths: Math is widely seen as an extremely difficult subject, especially amongst young children. These classes are perfect for building a student's understanding of Math rather than helping them simply remember formulas. Classes often dive into why math works, rather than just how math works to help solidify the student's understanding of what their learning. Math classes are available for all student's up to GCSE level. Science: Biology, Chemistry, and Physics are some of the most difficult subjects at GCSE level. There are classes for Combined Science and Triple Science available and are recommended for anybody preparing for GCSE Science exams. The classes are often based off of specific needs and are perfect for filling in gaps in knowledge. Science classes are available for any student preparing for their GCSE's. Please feel free to contact me with any questions!

Imogen - Islington£26
£26Maths and English tutoring for school children up to GCSE level, offered by an LSE Masters Student
I achieved 9s at GCSE in Maths, English Language, and English Literature. I also took Maths and English at A-level, and achieved A*s. I have tutored GCSE students in these subjects in the past, and I taught English to students in Burkina Faso. I also currently volunteer with children aged 11-15 at a charity called the 'Ministry of Stories' to develop children's writing abilities. On a personal level, as someone who was relatively recently in senior school (I am in my early 20s), and with two younger brothers who are at GCSE and A-level respectively, I want to use my up-to-date knowledge of the education system to help young people do well! I adapt all lessons plans to the student’s individual needs. Upon first meeting a student/their parent, we discuss the aims they want to achieve within the number of agreed lessons; e.g. whether there is a particular topic they wish to focus on, or if they would like to practise the subject more broadly. I formulate a potential lesson plan which I email to the student/their parent. After receiving feedback and comments, we agree on a final plan together. This is the approach I used in past tutoring jobs, and I have found it to be very successful. Due to my past tutoring experience with GCSE students, I am familiar with the current GCSE curriculum for Maths and English, for the AQA, Edexcel, and OCR exam boards. I use a combination of textbooks, extra material issued by the exam board, and past papers to teach students. I mark all their work according to the marking criteria issued by the exam board. I am also happy to go over a student’s class notes with them, if they are struggling to understand what the teacher has said. According to the student/parent preferences, I can set homework, which I mark before lessons and explain to the student during the lesson. In my approach to Maths, I aim to ensure the student fully understands the rationale of each mathematical step, rather than merely memorising the solutions to answers without understanding the logic behind them. During English classes, I will discuss texts and practise exercises with students orally and mark their written work, Also, I use my own tasks to improve students’ writing and analysis. For example, if students are often getting ‘stuck’ when faced with a text for the first time, I practise a list of key ‘trigger questions’ with them. (For instance: what is your instinctive emotional response to this text? Are there any specific sentences you think trigger this reaction in you? From the list of classic techniques authors use, like similes, extended metaphors, hyperbole, and oxymorons, are any used here? What is their effect? Are any of the themes we have identified in the rest of the book here?) To improve the students' writing abilities, I use techniques like encouraging students to produce ‘essay plans’ for me during lessons. They bullet point their ideas within ten minutes, and then we mark them together. This improves students’ structure, as they can more easily see the overall cohesion of their argument than if they were to write it out in full. It also helps students practise thinking on their feet. These are just two examples of techniques I use. Like lesson plans, I adapt the technique to the student, depending on what works best for them.
