Oxbridge English Admission Application and Test Coaching
Applications for English at Oxford and Cambridge both involve a written assessment, both of which I provide expert tutoring and guidance in as a first-class Classics and English graduate from Oxford.
English at Oxford uses the English Literature Admissions Test to decide who will be invited for interview, whereas at Cambridge only candidates shortlisted for interview will be required to take a written assessment. Both tests require detailed and thoughtful responses to literary extracts, which I will help develop your thinking and writing for.
Applicants are also required to submit two pieces of written work prior to interview, which I am able to advise about if requested.

About Me
Hello! My name is Maya, I am a first-class Classics and English graduate from the University of Oxford with significant experience in subject tutoring and Oxbridge admission coaching.I fully appreciate the significance 1-to-1 tuition can have on a student's ability, confidence, and enjoyment in a subject. After I received such teaching at Oxford (having come from large state comprehensive schools), I ended up coming 2nd in my cohort in my finals. I want to help others realise their potential in the same way -- whatever they are aiming for.
I can offer Oxbridge admissions coaching, as well as teaching to all school levels in: English Language, English Literature, History, Classics, Latin, and Classical Greek. Please enquire as to the level and content you require, as I can offer further subjects at KS3 level and under.

Maya is an excellent Latin teacher, and especially valuable for any 6th form level student aiming to do classics at Oxbridge.
Applications for Classics at Oxford and Cambridge both involve a language assessment, for which I provide expert tutoring and guidance in as a first-class Classics and English graduate from Oxford.
Classics at Oxford uses the Classics Admissions Test (CAT) for Course I (for students with Latin/Greek to A Level) or the Classical Language Aptitude Test (CLAT) for Course II (for students without Latin/Greek) to decide who will be invited for interview. At Cambridge only candidates shortlisted for interview will be required to take such assessment, which will be a translation exercise for the 3-year course, or a language aptitude interview for the 4-year. All assessments involve careful application of linguistic knowledge, whether of classical languages or English, which I will ensure you are extremely well-prepared to do.
Applicants are also required to submit two pieces of written work prior to interview, which I am able to advise about if requested.

English Language - Writing, Speaking, Listening Comprehension
Can learning English be fun, insightful, productive and effective at the same time? I believe so!
Whatever your background or profession, deciding to learn a foreign language is a great way to add another dimension to your life and make your mind work in a new way. You become a (slightly) different person, since along with a new language, one learns to look at the world in a slightly different way. This is why my approach to teaching English is not only aimed at laying or strengthening the foundational knowledge - grammar, speaking, writing and listening skills, but also at introducing students to the culture of the English-speaking population. We will find out what English speakers find funny, what drives them to tears, what makes them feel proud and what they get embarrassed about.
Open to students of all levels, my course usually is taught online, using a variety of visual aids and a wide range of material, from textbooks to YouTube videos. In teaching advanced learners, I often refer to pieces of literature such as novels and poems, since they easily spark discussions, which in turn improves the students' grasp and feel of the language. In doing so, I take students beyond ordinary textbooks and grammar books, since they are no more than guides to learning, not absolute authorities, and because to me language is a living, constantly evolving matter, which you must submerge yourself into in order to understand.
In addition to my unorthodox approach, what sets me apart is a collection of unique, language-related experiences, which translate into a good ability to understand nuances of the English language. A native Russian speaker, I have lived in the UK for over 5 years, went to a Scottish boarding school and have even completed a university degree in English. Thanks to my linguistic and cultural competency, I will make sure that you are never lost in translation! Are you interested? Then contact me today!

Learner English for beginners and all other learners
Acquiring additional languages will broaden your horizons; it will enable you to interact with a greater number of individuals and enhance your social network, while also enhancing critical thinking skills from diverse perspectives that may result in significant career opportunities. Cultural awareness, improved communication skills and enhanced academic performance are just a few of the benefits of learning new languages or improving your language skills.
For an academic student, I would monitor their current classes, design exercises to enhance their proficiency and concentrate on identifying and ameliorating their weaknesses.
In a lesson for a volunteer learner, I would prioritise speaking practice, since the pronunciation of certain syllables is essential.

My love for language and teaching is evident in my enthusiastic approach to making learning both fun and engaging. I believe that every student has the potential to excel, and my goal is to inspire a love for learning that extends beyond the classroom.
I have a rich experience in tutoring primary school students, with a particular focus on English language fundamentals. In my previous role as a tutor, I guided students through the intricacies of grammar and vocabulary.
My approach involves interactive lessons that encourage students to explore the meanings of words and how they can be used effectively in sentences. I create a supportive environment where students feel comfortable asking questions and expressing themselves. This not only helps in their academic performance but also builds their confidence in using language.
I believe in a student-centered teaching philosophy, where understanding each child's unique learning style is key. I use a variety of teaching methods, including games, storytelling, and practical exercises, to keep lessons dynamic and interesting. My goal is to make each session enjoyable and educational, leaving a lasting impression that motivates students to continue learning.
Parents can trust that I am not only knowledgeable but also approachable and patient. I prioritize clear communication and regular updates on progress, ensuring that both students and parents are comfortable and satisfied with the learning process.
I specialize in teaching children aged 5-11, focusing on foundational English skills. My classes are designed to help students:
Understand Basic Grammar: Identifying and using nouns, adjectives, and verbs correctly.
Sentence Construction: Crafting well-formed sentences for both written and spoken communication.
Vocabulary Building: Expanding their lexicon and understanding word meanings in various contexts.
I have a thorough understanding of the primary school syllabus and am familiar with common examination formats. My experience includes preparing students for standardised tests and assessments, such as the Key Stage 1 and Key Stage 2 in the UK. I use materials and practice tests from reputable sources, ensuring students are well-prepared and confident when facing their exams.
To get started, I offer a friendly introductory session where we can discuss your child's specific needs and goals. Whether your child needs help catching up, staying on track, or getting ahead, I'm here to provide the support they need. Let's work together to unlock your child's full potential!

Abdrahman
A remote & onsite Arabic class where students can learn speaking, writing & reading. It's also a class where Quran and Islamic Studies are taught.
Hello! My name is Abdrahman, from Nigeria. I have studied Arabic language (including reading, writing, listening and speaking skills). I also studied Quran & it's sciences, Tajweed, and other Islamic studies for more than fourteen years.
I have studied Arabic from the International Open University and Arabic Institute.
Currently, I'm also an Undergraduate student of Islamic Studies Education in the University of Lagos, Akoka. I also study under the tutelage of Sheikh Raslān from Egypt.
I am a tutor of modern standard Arabic, classical Arabic (the language of Quran and Hadith) and colloquial Arabic ('āmiyyah).
I love teaching Arabic because it is a very important language of Islam. Prophet Muhammad S.A.W said we should love Arabic language because: he is an Arabic, the holy Quran is in Arabic language and the language of the paradise dwellers is Arabic.
I also love teaching Arabic language because it is the fifth most spoken language in the world.
It is the official language of 26 countries including 5 of the wealthiest countries in the world. And it's sixth most spoken language in the world.
Learning such a language will avail you to the discovery of most interesting cultures in today's world. It will also look good in your resume.
With Arabic language, you'll become a polyglot and you will be able to adapt to the environments of Arab. As a Muslim, with Arabic language, you'll have thorough understanding of Quran and Sunnah.
I have been tutoring Arabic and Islamic Studies since 2014 both online and offline till date. I tutor the learners between the ages of 5 - 80.
The focus of my instruction is on all the important skills of the language (reading, writing, listening and speaking), grammar and vocabulary development. With these, you'll be able to intermingle with Arabic speaking people in any Arab environment you find yourself and of course, you'll have yourself prepared and fit for any formal exam.
I am also certified to instruct in the memorization of Quran, the sciences of Quran like different versions of Quranic recitation (riwāyāt), the exegesis of Quran (tafsīr), e.t.c
I have syllabus and materials for tutoring Arabic efficiently within a period of six to twelve months.
I'm well experienced in tutoring with these books:
➡️ I love Arabic
➡️ Lessons in Arabic language
➡️ Nūrul bayān
➡️ Iqrā' qirā'tī
➡️ Qā'idāh Nūrāniyyah
➡️ Qā'idāh Makkiyyah
➡️ Qā'idāh Baghdādiyyah
➡️ Arabic in your hands
➡️ Tuhfatul Atfāl
➡️ Exegesis of Ibn Kathīr e.t.c
I also have experience in teaching English language and Philosophy.
Learning English language helps in developing ideas and communicating them.
I would be glad to be your tutor in this journey, choose me and you will not regret it.
See you in my class!
I have 7 years of teaching experience. I'm a certified Arabic and English teacher. I have TESL and simplified Arabic certification. My teaching method is philosophical, experimental and persuasive. My teaching approach is simple to complex.

"Master the Art of English: From Basics to Business, Colloquialisms to Confident Communication"
As an English teacher, I design my classes to accommodate learners of all levels and ages. My goal is to help students improve their skills in reading, writing, speaking, and understanding English.
Beyond the basics, I also prioritize teaching colloquialisms and reducing accents for those interested in sounding more natural and fluent in their speech. For students who are looking to improve their business English skills, I provide specialized lessons that focus on industry-specific language and terminology.
Throughout my classes, I strive to create a positive and engaging learning environment. I encourage my students to participate actively, ask questions, and practice what they've learned through class discussions and exercises. Ultimately, my aim is to help students develop a lifelong love for the English language and the confidence to communicate effectively in any situation.

Business English Lessons for Effective Business Communication (online/offline)
Apart from general English language learning, this type of classes will focus more on English business vocabulary, business writing, business conversation and listening comprehension. This class would be suitable for people who plan (or already do) to study business/economics, want to enhance business skills for the business trips/clients, want to communicate and network effectively with international people in English.
For this class I will use several books as materials (popular editions) dedicated to Business English growth. I will involve much conversational practice and discussion activities of specific topics. The material (books, texts, exercises) will be shared with a student. All the classes and preparation for them will be adapted to each student individually. Feel free to contact me for questions or book a time slot for a class.
