Italian, English, Spanish Language Learning and Test Prep TutoringAs an English Literature graduate and current MLitt Publishing student, I am specialised in reviewing academic texts, journal articles, fiction and non-fiction both for essay writing and copy editing. This class will help you structure your understanding of English, Italian or Spanish, with a tailored approach based on your personal needs and requirements (grammar, exam preparation, text comprehension, speaking, essay writing, and so on). Whether you’re a beginner or advanced, my goal is to apply a suitable learning system designed for you.

Personal statement for UCAS and graduate school applicationI am an admissions consultant specialising in guiding students to apply to universities or graduate schools in the US and the UK. Most of my clients are third or fourth-year undergraduates or professionals with a few years of work experience applying to graduate schools.
My teaching philosophy is to be a mentor, friend, and sometimes emotional support counsellor for my clients. The admissions process can be daunting, especially for students with little or no experience writing personal statements and academic essays. I guide my students on a journey of self-discovery as they explore what they want to study and why.
When I am working with a student on crafting their personal statement, I will first ask my student to brainstorm ideas. We will discuss what to keep and what to delete when we are structuring the essay. I will then guide them on using the STAR method to give examples and details to demonstrate their skill or experience. The final stage is polishing the essay so it reads well and still retains the student's voice.
I also coach secondary school and undergraduate students how to write academic essays. They need to first become familiar with the materials by reading extensively and writing summaries and critiques. I will then guide them on how to come up with an argument and how to structure the essay. Finally, we will add supporting details and examples to demonstrate the main points.

Essay writing and IB English Lang/Lit SL/HL tutoring to help you with your essay writing and form ideas while speaking coherently in your IOAfter completing IB English Lang/Lit HL and receiving 7s in my HL Essays and IO, I am ready to help others achieve their highest potential when it comes to essay writing.
In my recent written university work I have received 80+/100 and this grade range is the Highest Distinction.
We will begin with a first lesson in order to get to know each other and see whether our goals align. We will discuss what exactly you need help with and make a weekly tutoring schedule. This is especially important when it comes to planning and writing HL essays and IOs. I will provide you with feedback, help you structure your work and read through it with you. I will also set deadlines for the next class that I expect you to meet. Keep in mind I pay great attention to grammar, spelling and overall clarity. IOs can be especially daunting, the idea of speaking for 10 minutes straight in essay format scared me too but I did it and received a 7, and I am here to provide you with tips and advice on how to achieve this.
I am looking for students who are open to receiving constructive criticism for their work. I promise I will approach all of our lessons with patience, kindness, motivation and support!
