Daniel - London, United Kingdom£58
£58PhD Candidate in Music at the University of Cambridge teaching Essay and Dissertation Skills
Trusted teacher: Approach to Teaching – I favor a structured approach. I devise lesson plans in advance of every lesson, catering to the student's specific needs. – Academic lessons tend to be structured around specific sections of the syllabus, or particular topics that students require help with. – I employ a seminar-style format. I flesh out ideas with the aid of quotations, other audio-visual resources, and analytical commentary. I structure my lesson plans with a view to providing gaps, in which students are able to ask questions about the content. I am also happy for students to interrupt the flow of the lesson if a burning question arises. – I use Powerpoint to provide students with a variety of resources and visual stimuli. Lesson Structure – Academic lessons tend to be 45 minutes to an hour in length, but I can adapt my teaching schedule to provide students with additional support if needed. – Typically violin lessons range in length from 30 minutes to an hour, but I am flexible: I am more than happy to devise a lesson structure that caters to a student's requirements. Academic Credentials – I am a candidate for a Ph.D. in Music at the University of Cambridge. – I hold an MPhil in Music from the University of Cambridge, where I specialized in Historical Musicology and Musical Aesthetics. – I have a first-class music degree (74.4%) from the University of Manchester, where I won three Hargreaves Prizes for Academic Achievement. – I have worked as an Assistant Music Teacher, which involved teaching Music A-Level students. Professional Credentials – I have worked as a private violin teacher for 7 years (since I was 17). I have taught a variety of students, from beginners starting their instrumental training to more advanced performers looking to improve their technical facility and performance skills. – I have an extensive portfolio of performing credits on documentary films. Recent highlights include the BAFTA-nominated score for the BBC docuseries on Ghislaine Maxwell and Jeffrey Epstein 'House of Maxwell' (BBC2, 2022), and 'Sir Alex Ferguson: Never Give In' (Netflix) (Passion Pictures / Universal Pictures) (2021). – I have extensive experience as an orchestral musician and chamber music performer. I led the University of Cambridge Experimental Music Ensemble (CUEME) when I was studying for my master's degree at the University of Cambridge. I also led the University of Manchester Chamber Orchestra in the second year of my undergraduate degree at the University of Manchester and premiered a good deal of new music with The Eskandari String Quartet. – I have performed at the West Road Concert Hall (University of Cambridge), the Lee Tseng Hall (Wolfson College Cambridge), the Buxton International Festival, the Manchester International Festival, and Bridgewater Hall. – I achieved a distinction (92%) in my ATCL Diploma in violin performance, and a First (78%) in the final violin recital of my undergraduate degree. Expected Ability of Students – Academic level: Beginner through to GCSE, A-Level, and Undergraduate Music and History of Philosophy

Monalee - Geneva, Switzerland£36
£36Ask me about Jamaica! Are you curious to learn more about Jamaica- to go beyond Reggae and Jerk? Its history, people, politics and culture?
Trusted teacher: Ever wondered about life in Jamaica beyond the lights of Kingston’s allure? This class offers an ethnographic journey of practises and cultures in rural Jamaica, illustrated through photos, songs and videos. Let's explore life in rural Jamaica! Born and raised in a remote rural district/village, I will take you on an authentic journey of first hand experiences- reliving fond childhood memories, the stories my grandmother told me and what a typical day is like. This will be grounded in the history and culture of Jamaica. Coming from a background in diplomacy, sharing about Jamaica's culture and historical experiences has always been essential for opening the door to a deeper unerstanding. I have an avid interest in other cultures and always take the time to explore wherever I go. Having been to South and Central America, Asia, North America and Europe, I know the unique value of such rich experiences. Whenever I was home-sick while posted abroad, talking about my homeland was the only cure. I will share with you all there is about living in rural Jamaica, from different perspectives of my childhood, teenage years and adult life. One unique bit is that the district's enduring small farms form the centrepiece around which everything revolves. Come prepared with a curious mind, and if you want to make notes take your pen and paper or do so on your devices. It is important for me that your are learning, so I encourage you to ask questions. Let's go beyond Kington's enigma!

Alice - Kuala Lipis, Malaysia£16
£16School at home or school on the road – Certified teacher-tutor open to the world
Trusted teacher: Have you decided to homeschool or go on a world tour with your child? Did you think being a teacher and parent was easy but it turns out to be more difficult than expected? Are you afraid of rushing your child, of damaging the relationship you have with him or you don't feel like a teacher or are not sure of your knowledge? I can help you ! Certified Classics teacher, I taught French and Latin in middle school for eight years at all levels, namely high-potential, dyslexic or struggling children or non-French-speaking children from various cultures. Before and during my teaching years, I gave private lessons and tutored children who wanted to prepare for French exams, who could not read, or who wanted to learn ancient Greek. Then I went on a world tour. Traveling for three years, I met on my way families who traveled around the world, others who had settled abroad and were schooling at home and I also approached other teaching methods such as the Waldorf method (Steiner). I offer tutoring for your child in French, history-geography, English and/or Spanish. I am also able to offer an opening to science and art. I am aware of the difficulties presented by schooling at home and while traveling and myself introduced to various innovative educational practices and open to the world, I am an exciting resource for your child. I particularly like project-based teaching, so why not build learning with your child based on carrying out projects based on what they experience at home or while traveling? Teaching is done online using Zoom. During the first lesson, we get to know each other and I take note of your expectations and needs as well as your child's personality, his tastes and desires and the framework in which you want this teaching to take place. The qualities of organization, rigor, kindness, adaptability and creativity that are mine have allowed me to successfully teach all types of audiences and I look forward to being able to build a personalized course with your child !

Tuition in Violin/Viola Performance, Musicianship, Music Theory, and Music History (Barnsbury)
Daniel
My first lesson with Daniel was just what I wanted and more. Daniel made me feel very comfortable and let me play some music I had been working on. Then Daniel looked at all aspects of my playing in a thorough manner and signposted plans for future lessons. I was really wanting my technique to be reviewed thoroughly and Daniel did exactly this, in a very supportive and encouraging manner. It was incredible to hear the change to my playing Daniel helped me make within the hour. Looking forward to the next lesson! Many thanks!
Review by SOUMEN
Teaching greek language in an interactive and playful way. (Amsterdam)
Pely
Pelagia is the best teacher I could possibly ask for my 7 year old son. I wanted to find a Greek teacher for him, as he is being raised in the Netherlands (Dutch being his first language) and I am Greek. Pelagia is patient, kind, with great teaching techniques, and she really cares about her job. I highly recommend her, she is amazing and my son loves her. We are very lucky to have found her. Thank you so much for everything you do!
