Experienced UK Secondary Entrance Exams Tutor (7+, 8+, 10+, 11+, 13+/Common Entrance, Sixth Form)

Experienced Admissions Coach and Tutor.

A graduate of SciencesPo Paris and the University of Glasgow, I offer tuition for all British secondary entrance exams (7+, 8+, 10+, 11+, 13+/Common Entrance, Sixth Form).

I tailor lessons to the pupil's current abilities, focusing on problem areas that are easily glossed over (or not covered at all) in large school classes. I have an outstanding track record of grade improvement and exam success, assisting UK-based and international students to win admission to the independent or grammar schools of their choice.

I make lessons engaging and enjoyable, and am happy to set homework or mark practice tests if needed.

I am flexible with timings and teach online via Zoom or Skype.

Thank you for taking the time to read my profile. I hope to hear from you soon!

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. Are you curious about how nature works? Let's explore together!

My objective is to support learners towards success in the DELF (Diploma of Studies in French Language) or the DALF (Advanced Diploma in French Language), as well as the TCF (French Knowledge Test).

For me, helping enthusiasts practice the French language is an enriching experience, because I understand the importance of success in the lives of ambitious people. I speak Arabic, French, Spanish, a little English and a little Turkish. During my classes, I explain concepts in French, Arabic or Spanish, depending on your preference. At the end of each session, I offer exercises to do as homework, in order to identify your gaps and monitor your progress. Here are some essential points to know about the DELF and DALF: - The DELF (Diploma in French Language Studies) and the DALF (Advanced Diploma in French Language) are two high-quality official diplomas.

Mathematics all levels: private lessons and class support
Maths is a powerful tool in itself, one that can open many doors in your future. I offer to help you master it, no matter you current level/skills! I usually start the class answering your questions, then I believe it is better to confirm and deepen the knowledge with lessons before illustrating them with clear exercices. I create my own curriculum, but if you only need a follow up on the courses you already attend, it's not a problem! I will adapt our sessions together to it.
