Overview:
I offer bespoke tutoring services to school pupils and individuals studying History, Politics, and English. With a background in History and experience in the teaching and media sectors, I provide a professional, insightful, and comprehensive service aimed at improving a client's understanding of a topic, their confidence within it, and targeting specific issues and skills as required.

I also provide advice on university selection and applications, building on experience as an applicant myself and coach for successful applicants to highly selective universities (including Oxford, St Andrews, and UCL).

Teaching methodology:
I believe that the best way to teach is to communicate, work out the student's needs with them, and proceed from there. We live in a diverse world, and it's important to reflect that diversity in teaching. I believe in using a variety of sources to help teach, ranging from films, to books, to music clips. This is particularly important in the context of clients with LS needs, as a focus on one kind of source can impact the pupil's experience,and hinder their success.

My lessons are based on a core Learning Objective, changing from lesson to lesson with the curriculum. Around that, there will be a series of case studies, examples, and anecdotes, with personalised support for exam answers if required. Half the battle with the humanities is ensuring that good ideas are communicated well- I seek to teach history and support the development of those communication skills to ensure that the pupil's ability is reflected.

Hi! I`m a Biological Sciences student at the University of Edinburgh. I`m from England and am tutoring up to GCSE level sciences and Maths. I sat my A levels in Maths, Biology, Physics and Chemistry. I love teaching and helping students get the most out of themsleves and their studies, covering a wide wide range of problems, from learning content to practicing exam questions. I believe the most important part of learning is identifying and strengthening different weaknesses in the student's individual learning process, with the end goal of helping the student become self sufficient. If this sounds like a goal of yours, I will be able to help!

Biology the study of living organisms and their interactions with the environment. It covers a wide range of topics, including the structure and function of cells, genetics, evolution, ecology, and more. Biology helps us understand how living things work and how they're connected to the world around us. Let me know if you have any specific questions or if there's anything else I can help you with!

Mathematics is a highly sought skill in any job or career. In my experience, the beginning of high school is when students decide if they love or hate maths; this is an important time to show them that it isn't that scary! Everything has a reason and, if you learn it right, can feel like cheating!

This class helps students learn how and why mathematics works the way it does, crushes their fear of complex equations or concepts, and instills a newfound confidence and appreciation. From learning how counting works to nailing your Higher maths exam, this class is tailored to the student!
Lessons are aimed at students in high school, however anyone outwith this who wants to learn about these topics is more than welcome!

I hold a doctorate in Business and Management and have been teaching degree programs for over 7 years at the University of Strathclyde , Glasgow. I incorporate math into almost all the modules I teach, recognizing that many students lack basic skills from high school. I provide refresher lessons on various math topics to bridge this gap. With a passion for math and its relevance to practical business issues, I aim to make learning fundamental math concepts enjoyable and easy to grasp for high school, college, and university students by connecting it to the real world (Primary , GCSE, A-Levels, Higher Maths and Degree programs)

I know GCSE is very scary, and feeling a little behind in class can feel like you are miles behind everyone else! I am here to help teach the foundations so the more complicated application of GCSE questions starts from a basis of clear understanding of the fundamentals!

Open and friendly discussion about student's very specific struggles. For example, if RUAE I will go through each question type with student. If they highlight say linking question. I would break it down to the basic concept. Then use a formula for these questions that is always successful. I would then model the formula and after this apply to past paper link questions. I then would ask the pupil to complete easier examples, building their confidence until they felt comfortable to attempt past paper questions. Normally at this stage the student successfully understands how to complete these questions in all variations.
This strategy is how I teach all different types of RUAE questions.
