As a multingual myself, I speak four languages fluently (Tagalog, Spanish, Catalan and English) and one intermediate (Italian). I want students to learn the how to pronounce and I also want them to be confident when speaking. Of course, the grammar is very important!

Reuben
Oxford Graduate offering English tuition from KS2 to (I) GCSE
As an experienced online tutor of English Language and Literature from KS3 to GCSE, I am eager to help more students achieve their academic and personal goals. I believe that the challenge is as much psychological as it is of preparation and ability. I encourage students with the confidence to aim high in their academic goals and equip them with enthusiasm and passion for their learning. I often take a direct approach to learning to diagnose problems before drilling back to basic theory and fundamental knowledge blocks. This approach enables students to set their sights on the long-term goal of examination success and helps me devise a realistic and targeted plan to ensure their best chance of success.
