Trusted teacher: English SL and Higher Level for the International Baccalaureate is a rigorous course, especially for ESL students. I completed the IB with HL English and received a 7 (highest mark) in my final exam. I will be able to go over both Standard Level and Higher Level syllabuses for the course specific to the material covered in your school, and prepare you for mock and final exams. I will include essay writing skills, literary criticism and analysis, as well as vocabulary expansion techniques in my teaching. A brief overview of the key features of English SL/HL as set by the International Baccalaureate Organisation: • Higher level study requires a minimum of 240 class hours, while standard level study requires a minimum of 150 class hours • Students study 13 works at higher level and 9 works at standard level from a representative selection of literary forms, periods and places • Students develop the ability to engage in close, detailed analysis of literary works, building understanding of the techniques involved in literary criticism • The study of literary works in context is emphasised, and through the study of literature in translation the student is challenged to reflect on the role of cultural assumptions in interpretation • Students are assessed through a combination of formal examination and oral and written coursework. • The formal examination comprises two essay papers, one requiring the analysis of a passage of unseen literary text, and the other comparative response to a question based on two works studied • Students also perform an oral activity presenting their analysis of two works studied • HL students comply with an additional written coursework requirement which consists of writing a 1200 - 1500 word essay on one of the works studied

I am an experienced guitar tutor teaching lessons face-to-face and online. I also cater to groups. I have been a musician for over 20 years and have been teaching guitar for over 10 years, giving me a vast range of knowledge, teaching methodologies and learning resources. For older beginners and adults, I offer fun and information-rich lessons on what the guitar is and how to play it, along with how to get the most from your practice time. What can be seen as an insurmountable task is broken down into easy-to-follow steps grounded in whichever genre you're interested in exploring. On both electric or acoustic we'll cover the fundamentals of good playing technique, how to teach yourself songs, chord shapes and common scales, as well as rhythm and timekeeping. For those looking for UCAS points, Duke of Edinburgh award Skill, learning for fun or to complete grades, I will equip you with a wide understanding of music and the instrument leading towards creative self-expression. Here are some of my testimonials from upper-Secondary school and adult students: "A very friendly, knowledgeable and accommodating guy, knows how to play AND teach to a high standard and has been a godsend for me with my physical medical issues.

I would like to thank Ajay for giving lessons to my two boy's ( 12 and 13 years ) and my daughter who is 14 year old. Ajay is passionate about his craft and is enthusiastic about imparting his knowledge to his students. His lessons are well planned and executed to give a sense of accomplishment to the students at the end of the session. I wanted Ajay to teach my children. However, he has managed to turn me from a silent spectator to an active participant !!!!
