English (Conversational/business/exam), Math & Science (test prep)

From 34.5 £ /h

Hello,

I am an experienced English tutor and have tutored different students with varying abilities.

My class is dependent on the needs of my students including; IELTS, conversational English, Business English, GCSE & A-level (English, Math and Science)

From my experience, I understand that everyone learns in a different way and at different pace, so I aim to tailor my style depending on the student.

My lessons are usually based on the syllabus (and beyond-depending on the student/parent preference. However, I am comfortable teaching certain topics.

Being a student myself I can relate to young learners I understand while they may know a lot about a certain topic, they might not be able to apply themselves to answer the question,therefore, I always aim to include exam technique/questions in my lessons.

The younger children (4 -14 y.o) I teach have shorter attention spans and find it more difficult to grasp new concepts and ideas, so I like to incorporate games,quizes and challenges in my lessons.

Before each lesson I like to test my students on previous topics, the test will be 5-10 minutes long consisting of 5 questions differing in difficulty. This is for me to know what the student does/does not understand, and for the student to reinforce any information.

Hello,

My name is Anna and I am a UK qualified teacher. I specialise in teaching English, English as an Additional Language and Humanities subjects. I have taught in the UK and also in Swiss international schools. and have experience teaching the UK national curriculum and the IB at Middle School & High School level. I have also worked extensively with pre-school and infant school aged children providing extra homework support or EAL lessons.

My classes are flexible based on the needs of my pupils. I understand that everyone learns differently, and it is very important to me to get to know my students as individuals. Normally I would follow the syllabus curriculum, but I am also very happy to tailor lessons on a more individual basis. I make sure that lessons are varied, including quizzes and different activities and also record pupils' progress on a weekly and quarterly basis.

I have been successfully teaching Swiss students for many years and have gained extensive experience with cantonal education in various regions of Switzerland. As an experienced, local tutor, I am intimately familiar with the requirements, structures, and curricula of the Swiss school system. I have all past exam papers at my disposal and have prepared numerous students for their cantonal and national exams in a targeted, sustained, and highly successful manner. I place particular emphasis on closing knowledge gaps, building self-confidence, and offering each student individualized support that supports them in the best possible way. My goal is not only to improve grades, but also to develop a long-term joy in learning and lay the foundation for academic success.

►Targeted exam preparation for:

High school entrance exams
BMS & Passerelle exams
International Baccalaureate (IB)
ETH courses & university modules
ZHAW & University of Applied Sciences

► How do I teach?
►I always emphasize a complete understanding of problems, not just learning methods: This ensures you get the maximum benefit from tutoring. I take the time to clarify concepts and address individual questions until everything is truly understood.

►The reason for my success lies in my ability to adapt my learning style to meet the needs of my students. I carefully observe which methods work for each student and adapt my teaching flexibly.

►I offer practical and lively examples to explain concepts in mathematics, physics, and chemistry. This makes theoretical knowledge tangible and ensures long-term retention.

►I am very patient and strive to eliminate the difficulty in key concepts by simplifying seemingly complex procedures. No student is left behind—my goal is a solid foundation.

►I firmly believe in building a positive working relationship with my students. Trust and a relaxed atmosphere are the foundation for sustainable learning success.

►Intensive exam preparation (e.g., during the holidays), subject-specific topic work, or overcoming test anxiety for all ages. Together, we develop a concrete plan and train under realistic conditions.

►I'm also a highly experienced online tutor and can deliver a lesson as effectively as possible in person using an interactive whiteboard. All materials and documents are shared in real time, making the lesson just as productive as in-person.

►Locations: At your home, online, or by appointment. I am flexible and adapt to your wishes and needs to achieve optimal learning results.

Math and Physics Tutoring (Native English Speaker) IB/IGSCE/A Level/General
-Need help preparing for a Math or Physics exam? I have degrees in Physics from Stanford University and the University of Chicago, and I help teenagers or adults understand the principles and techniques they need to get top marks on their examinations.

I teach adults and children of any age and any level,

The core of my approach is:

- Practice, practice, practice!
Language proficiency is not knowledge but a SKILL. Every single theoretical topic should be practiced. For that reason, all my courses are full of practical tasks.

- Having fun while learning.
Only by having fun can your studying be effective. That’s why the practical tasks of my courses are interactive games. Another crucial point is 100 % clarity of the course theory — learning objectives for every course is made clear from the start.

- Focus:
There is too much information nowadays. It’s more and more difficult to navigate through it. So it’s important to have high-quality curated information for your studies: precisely what you need to address your specific needs: a real language for real life.

- Authentic language:
My courses are free from artificial phrases that can still be found in textbooks. I provide only genuine language spoken by people in real life.

- A teacher’s mission is to inspire and to give direction, not just transfer knowledge into a student’s head.
The best result is when students can learn by themselves, and when they are motivated to use every opportunity to master a foreign language. I will readily share strategies and resources for independently studying foreign languages.

- Result vs process.
A foreign language is not about good grades. Its real purpose is to improve your life. That’s why each lesson is another step toward your better life. No unnecessary information but precisely what you need to achieve your goals.

I am eager to help you learn and improve your English language in an interesting and effective way. I know how to learn foreign languages efficiently as I have learned English on my own. Now I want to share my methodology, sources and tips with you.

The famous russian mathematician Nikolai Lobachevsky said that mathematics is the language which is spoken in all natural sciences. There is no any mathematical area which cannot be applied to real life. Mathematics makes you advance every day and be happy when you manage to solve a complicated task.

If you have troubles with math in school or you are interested in learning, I can help you. Together we can make learning easier and more interesting.

There is an online option, if it is easier for you.

Want to improve your languages skills? Or maybe even try to learn a new one?
