Preparing for GCSE English Lang/ Lit - year 9, 10 and beyond
KS3/ GCSE
As the lockdown eases, it's time to think about a return to study at school. Firmly established teacher of English since 1998; my specialism is raising the grade - especially tricky 3/4 boundaries. Another strength is accommodating learners with specific learning needs - G&T, ASD, MLD, PP, ADHD, and so forth. KS2 also accommodated.
Tutoring young learners on a one to one basis is so rewarding: the learners not only gain merit certificates and recognition form their schools - but also blossom in confidence and knowledge. To complement the two decades +, other assets include experience as a GCSE examiner for OCR; a thorough understanding of AQA and WJEC AO papers.
ESOL
Developing your spoken/ listening, reading, and writing skills - especially as English for Academic Purposes unlocks your potential and wellbeing. Experience of teaching in universities and specializing in Functional Skills, tutoring is planned around your needs.
Functional Skills
Are you preparing for teaching? Do you want to go for a promotion at work? Do you want to improve your literacy skills? If you need to get a Level 2 in FS English - tutoring is available.
Once described as an expert, teaching the essential skills in English was the core of my management career in FE.
Whatever your needs - contact me to discuss how tutoring can help you change, shape, and free your future.

About Me
Working in education has taught me a lot about people. With an MA English Lit, I have over two decades of experience across compulsory, further and higher education. Whilst I specialise in GCSE English, Functional Skills, ESOL and improving literacy skills has sustained my teaching. Coaching NQTS or tutors through to QTS, QTLS; private tuition; TEFL - these are all strengths of my education services.From my teaching experience came the ability to coach others. Everything we believe about ourselves is developed by the interactions with others. Our beliefs, assumptions and so aspirations are all limited by a negativity from these experiences. My L5 coaching qualification vindicates my experience of helping others make SMART decisions about their own lives. My passion to help others is an abiding driver: lifestyle changes such as coming out, changing jobs, dealing with difficult people - are but a few examples I've helped with.
Personally, a second MA in fine art underpins the voluntary work I enjoy. Keeping fees to a reasonable price ensures everyone can get the support, guidance and learning they need.

Experience / Qualifications
Widely travelled, gregarious, ongoing voluntary work; painting, drawing and sketching has turned into exhibitions, voluntary community work.Have you ever drawn with words - or write with drawing/ mark making?
In each session, we will look at techniques to develop both drawing and writing skills to produce an image/ prose to be proud of. The aim is to then use this creativity to address the demands of every day living - to find a moment of calm amidst the punishing to-do list we give ourselves.
Drawing and writing - why not combine the two?
Through creativity comes inspiration and revelation. Combining creative writing/drawing and coaching, you will explore the steps and actions needed to reach your desired goals. Following the cycle - old habits and fears are addressed, replaced and repurposed:
check-in: pre-session questions to prepare you
session pathway: in-session activities to create action
check out: review and evaluate the session, you
into action: post-session tasks and activities

Benoit
Private online mathematics lessons - Qualified and experienced teacherI am a qualified and experienced mathematics tutor. Graduated from the Free University of Brussels in 2011, I started my career by teaching remedial courses in different schools in Brussels. I then specialized in individual academic support by following educational training at the Harvard Graduate School of Education. I have been giving private mathematics lessons daily for over ten years.
The students who follow my private lessons benefit from personalized support. The first session is devoted to an in-depth assessment of the student's mathematical knowledge. The objective is to detect its weak points and understand their origin in order to adapt my courses to its needs. I develop a tailor-made remediation program for each of my students aimed at filling each of their gaps. Over the course of the sessions, the student builds a solid foundation for learning and regains self-confidence. At the same time, I help him acquire a work methodology that allows him to gradually become autonomous in his studies.
I have a perfect knowledge of the mathematics program of the College and the High School (from the Sixth to the Terminale). During my formative years, I studied and developed many techniques that make it easier to learn math. The strength of my pedagogical approach lies in my ability to explain in a simple way everything that the student finds complicated. I am passionate about this job because it gives me the opportunity to guide dropout students on the path to success. It is a real pleasure to see them evolve and come to terms with the fantastic world of mathematics.
I provide my private lessons in Limoges (at the student's home) or remotely (online via the internet). My distance learning courses take place on an interactive online whiteboard. This board is specially designed to promote student/teacher interaction on the internet. Thanks to this educational tool, my online courses are as effective as home courses. The student only needs an internet connection and a computer, tablet, or smartphone to take advantage of it.

Younes
give courses in languages and applied biochemistryMy name is Younes and I give language lessons, for me teaching means learning twice so my learning method is based on simplicity and above all you have to move forward according to the student's rhythm to allow him to learn. improve and acquire new bases and be able to assimilate new information without ever becoming saturated. Sometimes it's better to go slowly but surely. In addition, I am a young researcher in applied biochemistry and a temporary teacher at the university for 4 years, so for those who have difficulties and gaps in biochemistry, I will be there to simplify you and above all to make you discover the world. wonder of biochemistry and thank you for stopping by.

IB MYP, IGCSE, GCSE Algebra,courses/support for all levelsI am Mavi, a physics engineer working at an aerospace company.
I have been teaching private lessons at the primary, secondary, high school, and university preparatory levels for 9 years. I teach mathematics, physics, chemistry, and science. I have a good command of the curricula of IB, IGCSE, American, Hong Kong, and international schools.
Additionally, I hold the position of president at the Astronomy Society, where I foster my students' interest in astronomy and science beyond the lessons. I prepare the learning environment by incorporating experiments and exploration, moving away from rote education. I often bring experimental materials to class, aiming to make learning memorable through hands-on experiments.
As an educational mentor, I approach my students as if they were my siblings, valuing creativity. I have a deep passion for mathematics, physics, and science. I am dedicated to helping students understand and learn because life encompasses both SCIENCE and ART. The more people I can inspire to know, understand, and love mathematics, physics, and chemistry, the more proud I am.

English(Improve Academic/Language skills, Terminology, Proofreading Thesis/Papers ): Beginner/Intermediate/AdvancedEnglish as a language is not only widely spoken but also, has made itself a prerequisite to the international world. Even if it is academic or just a beginner learning it for the first time, I will be helping you learn and master the English language just as I did until I achieved my dream of attending a university in English. Reading, Listening, Writing, and Speaking are essential fundamentals to truly master a language so we will have a lot of experience during our sessions in all of them depending on the student's needs.
