UCAS Personal Statement and CV Mentoring: Online Class

In this online class, I offer one-to-one support with writing, editing, and submitting a successful UCAS application. Having been through the UCAS application process myself only five years ago, I fully understand how complex and stressful it can be. As a student at the University of Nottingham, I also have a direct insight into what lecturers and admissions staff look for in a prospective Russel Group student.

From my own UCAS application, I gained one unconditional offer and three conditional offers. What's more, I have just completed a one-year Erasmus internship in Munich, which required me to edit CVs in English and German at a professional level. I have so much experience to share, so if you are interested please send me a message and I will get back to you as soon as possible! I am so excited to (virtually) meet you :)

About Me

I am a 21 year old final-year student at the University of Nottingham, studying BA English and German. I have just returned from my year abroad in Munich, where I tutored a Computer Science student for 4 months to help them with an upcoming English exam. I have a passion for languages and have built a really good rapport with all of my previous students. My specialities include German, English Language, English Literature, CV writing, and Personal Statement help.

Please message me if you would like to book a class!
This class is for anyone who needs additional support with learning German. I do not follow a specific teaching curriculum because I prefer to tailor my focus to my student's weaker areas. We can focus on grammar, conversation, writing, and reading. I have multiple text book resources and grammar exercises which I can send electronically for you to complete, which I will then mark out of lesson time. I have a deep-rooted passion for learning languages. In addition to studying German as part of my BA degree at the University of Nottingham, I have just returned from a one-year Erasmus internship in Munich, where I worked full-time in a German-speaking office. If you are interested in this class, please send me a message and we can get something booked! I can't wait to meet you :)

Interview simulation & video analysis filmed if necessary. - Identify your values, promote your professional project / your assets and strengths but also work on areas for improvement in order to find new momentum in your career. Note that during the videoconference session, all the notes are transcribed in the chat so that you can access them at any time when you wish. Statistically, the progression following these private sessions is quickly noticeable, from 2 sessions.

But currently and until further notice, only by videoconference in accordance with national recommendations on Covid. These sessions also seem perfectly unanimous since they have the advantages of direct (example: quality of the interaction), without its disadvantages (example: loss of travel time) with additional advantages (example: chat notes that can be read later). In this context, these videoconference sessions for which you have requested me, seem to suit everyone perfectly, take place in a very optimal way and generate a certain enthusiasm (and a certain enthusiasm).

English Pronunciation and Accent Coaching / Training with a Native Teacher
💬 A customised English accent coaching / training course with a dedicated native-speaking coach will enhance your communication skills, boost your confidence, and ensure you can be easily understood in English conversations, presentations and meetings. I help clients identify and fix the issues that cause misunderstandings, helping you cultivate a more natural and relaxed speaking style. In our course, we'll work on building stronger connections between your mind and your speech muscles so that you can make adjustments that help you sound more native. We'll also compare the similarities and differences between your natural accent and your target English accent, so you can pinpoint the sounds that you want to work on. ⭐ Select between Accent Reduction and British English Accent Coaching. 🌍 Accent Reduction identifies and targets the issues that cause misunderstandings in your own specific natural accent. This varies depending on your accent. For Dutch speakers, this usually includes: • the consonants th, p, t, k, s, sh, r, and v • the vowels in "strut" and "foot" • making intonation less flat and more meaningful • relearning the connections between sound and spelling – famously fiendish in English! Accent Reduction is perfect for people who may feel that their accent is part of their identity and may not wish to change it completely but still want to be more understandable to an international audience. 💂 British English Accent Coaching is a step-by-step course that teaches you to sound like a British native speaker. It teaches all of the sounds that makes British English sound unique. This includes: • shifting many vowels towards a more forward placement in the mouth •adopting British intonation patterns for questions, lists and speeches • and of course the distinct British "t" sound (Brits do love their tea, after all). British English Accent Coaching is ideal for people who pride themselves on sounding like native English speakers. WHAT MAKES MY LESSONS STAND OUT? Affordability, quality, and expertise. In this industry, materials are rarely professional or customised. As an independent teacher, I provide my clients with a tailor-made learning experience just for you. If you want a mix of Accent Reduction and British English, or if you have any special requests, I will adapt the course for your needs. WHO SIGNS UP FOR AN ENGLISH PRONUNCIATION COURSE? Prounciation trainign benefits pfessionals from a variety of sectors. Clients include individuals from diverse backgrounds such as bankers, consultants, creatives, therapists, lecturers, teachers, performers, estate agents, hosts, broadcasters, corporate trainers, small business owners, international executives, and facilitators. ABOUT ME My name’s Tom and I’m an English teacher from Southeast England, based in the Hague, Netherlands. I teach English learners how to communicate more clearly. I have taught for various schools and agencies in the Netherlands and been frustrated by the lack of high-quality teaching materials and expertise among teachers of Accent Reduction and British English pronunciation. So in 2021 I set up my freelance teaching business to change the situation. I have over 10 years of teaching experience in various countries, and I have a master's degree in Linguistics from Leiden University, with a specialisation in English Linguistics, Phonetics and Speech Processing. I am trained in speech analysis software, a highly effective tool in helping learners not only hear but also visualise their mistakes. In my spare time, I study and learn languages. I can speak Mandarin, Finnish and a smattering of many others. Currently I am learning Japanese and Dutch. I have the technical, academic, and practical skills to help you improve your accent.

Native French teacher. Interactive class all levels (A1 to C2) Preparation for DELF and DALF, By student, professional, translation.
My French method is very didactic. According to the student, because for me each student has his or her own, their interests.

I teach a high-quality French, for students who want in addition to having a good diction and pronunciation, can have a conversation, with a very cultured person (learning all the French conjugations and use) The other point is that I teach, not only the French language, but also the French Culture, traversed the history, geography of France, its territories and outer province of France (Guadeloupe, Martinique, Tahiti, etc ...) and of the many countries where French is spoken. French. Also with knowledge of art, literature, music, etc ... I want my students to fall in love with the French language, of course it will depend on the student, and their abilities. I use a French literature for learning, and personal document so that the vocabulary is learned as soon as possible, to make phrases and sentences. Pronunciation will be very important to me, and I am very demanding but the result will be excellent. The rest to you to discover, I hope you very soon, in this linguistic journey in the world of French History. My French method is very didactic.
