English Tutor for Children and Teens Needing Help with Reading (and analysis), Essay Writing, and Exams

Hi! I'm Chrissie, and I would love to help you with your English studies. Whether you just need to pass an exam or are really interested in literature I can help! Hopefully, after having some lessons with me, you will have an increased interest or love for the subject.

I work in a very friendly, enthusiastic and encouraging manner and my approach to teaching and guiding students is to facilitate self learning and reflection. If it works for the student, I will encourage them to take studying into their own hands and empower them to tell me what they want to learn and will try my best to give some guidance.

I will teach mainly online, however if you live in central London and you cannot, for whatever reason, do tutorials online I am open to a discussion about meeting in person.

About Me

- I am currently studying English at Kings College London
- I am very eager to work with young people who need some help with English and having tutored both my younger brothers, who struggle with dyslexia, I feel I have experience with tutoring children of all different abilities
- Hiring a tutor can be a daunting process, knowing who to trust and who will provide the best service; by hiring my services I will not only help you, or your child to get to where they need to be with English, but I will supply them with personally adapted skills that they can apply to all different areas of school, such as organisational skills and useful learning techniques.

Education

Kings College London - Undergraduate - English with Film Studies. I was a straight A* student at school and am determined to achieve a first class degree in two years time.

Experience / Qualifications

Whilst I have no academic teaching qualifications, I have amateur experience tutoring my younger brothers, and other students whilst I was still at school. I am also a trained ski instructor so I have experience in teaching and training children through this.

Ask a question

Send a message explaining your needs and Chrissie will reply soon:
The more detail, the better.
Ex. "Hi, when are you available to meet for a lesson?"

French lessons with literature, poetry, philosophy if interested
Master's student in physics at EPFL and literary at heart, I obtained the baccalaureate with honors (19.8/20 general average) and willingly help in learning the French language, its literature, its philosophy and its culture if interested. I propose to give French support courses for all levels, occasionally or regularly :) I have previously given lessons to children. Having several young nephews and nieces and having regularly carried out baby sittings, I am used to supervising children. I can also help with English classes (after having lived for several months in Cambridge, England), mathematics, science or provide general academic support for homework help for children. Currently doing my master's thesis in Japan, I give lessons via webcam. Do not hesitate to contact me if you are interested. Hope to meet you, Iolene

"Online Turkish Lessons with a Guaranteed Speaking Practice with a Turkish Teacher 🤓 / Over 6 Years of Experience 👨‍💻 / Easy Learning Met
Hello, my name is Yunus. I'm Turkish and live in Izmir. I can't wait to learn Turkish with you.🤗 I love teaching Turkish. If you want, I would like to briefly tell you how we can learn Turkish.🤓 First, in our first lesson, we determine your level together📝 and start our lessons suitable for your level. Our lessons include reading📕, writing✏️, listening🧏🏽‍♀️, and speaking🗣️. I want you to read and translate reading passages in the reading section. Here, we write down and memorize the new words and verbs we learn.🧠 Then, after listening to a text related to our topic, I want you to explain in Turkish what you understood. Of course, understanding the texts might be a bit difficult at first, but we overcome this and learn together. 💪Then, we come to the most fun part, of course, the speaking part. In this part, we talk about the texts we have read and listened to before. Of course, we try to use new words and verbs more. I love people who talk a lot in my classes. It's not a problem even if it gives me a bit of a headache🤕😁 As long as you learn🙏❤️. And finally, I give you a writing assignment related to the topic and eagerly await our next lesson. Also, you can contact me anytime outside of class.📲 I look forward to having you in my class and getting to know you and learning Turkish together. Take care.👋🏾

Rico (Ph.D)
Guidance in (scientific) writing and communication.
Like no other, I know how difficult it can be to structure a research or project in a short time. You want to distinguish main issues from side issues and be in the final report to-the-point in communicating the results. From MBO level 2 I went on to a doctorate in astrophysics at the University of Amsterdam. During this path, I have written hundreds of reports, published 6 scientific articles and presented my findings hundreds of times both informally and formally. In addition, I have been a successful thesis supervisor of 3 bachelor students and 1 master's student. I would like to help you get the best out of yourself with the help of my knowledge and experience. However, I do not want to do this with a leadership mentality, but from an advisory mentality in which we can put together as equals a nice end product that we both support. I can offer concrete support for your research/project in: - Setup and planning - Doing literature study - Quality assurance - Presentation and structure/content - Popularizing the topics with catchy texts - Review with a critical look - Give layout and design input - And much more Do you think I can help you or do you want to know more? I would love to hear from you!
