Hello, I specialise in tutoring for the 11+,13+ and SATs. I passed all exams and now I am in a top-achieving grammar school. I can help tell you what to look for and what not to. My goal is to keep students challenged but not overwhelmed, I believe that my lessons are fun but challenging. On the first week, we will be starting with Non-Verbal Reasoning and in the second lesson, we will do a recap. We will be doing that series for at least 5 weeks, and we will do a recap exam of all the Non-Verbal learnt to see how much you have learnt. We will do the same for Maths, English and Verbal Reasoning.

In my class you will learn how to write effective pieces in English, and achieve outstanding grades with lots of different techniques. We will be covering basic SPAG and writing techniques that you need for creative writing, and also how to analyse a comprehension for details. In verbal reasoning, we will be covering how to think constructively and use skill to understand different concepts framed in words.

Mathematics is a fun game that we play with numbers.Rather than thinking it as a subject my class will be more innovative that will help the students to understand the subject more easy and also it will help them to shine better in their academic.I will dive into the world of Algebra with my Algebra essentials class which will be perfect for middle and high school students,this class will explore variables,equations and functions.Also prepare the students for the challenge of calculus.I can take classes from primary to adult and clarify all there doubts and make them a great mathematicians.Other than maths I will also take class for English and also I will help students to prepare for their exams.I will help the students to shine bright in their academic.

English is important to us because its the language that the whole world speaks in’t
I would like to help people who don’t speak English to make them know that this language is easy and help make it better for them to understand the language and the basic grammar

I am a masters student Pursuing Msc International Health Policy Health Economics studying at LSE and have completed my Bachelors in Economics Honors with an overall cgpa of approx. 8.5 which makes me eligible to provide classes for economics. I completed my high school in 2021 with a cgpa of 9.1 and am passionate about studies and value co curriculars as well. I scored an 8 band in IELTS in my first try as a proof of my fluency in the English language.

Private tuition in English Language and Literature. For those students preparing for exams I like to take a syllabus-based approach while also allowing time to further explore any specific areas of personal interest the student may have. If a student is not working towards exams but requires private tuition, my aim is to approach the English subject enthusiastically and broadly, highlighting the vast range of approaches that students can take towards discovering new topics, practising new learning techniques and exploring their own personal interests within the subject in the most educationally enriching way possible.
If a student is having difficulties at school I believe I have the skills and personable approach to transform their learning into discovery and demonstrate this process to be appealing and exciting. Learning should never seem like an obstacle. Instead it should be seen as something that enlightens a student to their own potential.

My name is Younes and I am a qualified English teacher and a French instructor who lives in the UK.
I love working with adults and children of all ages, which allows me to help them reach their full potential.
I am currently teaching in London at my own college. I have been teaching and preparing students for the last 12 years. I taught many French and English classes such as ESOL, ESL, or Functional Skills. Most of these exams are based in England however I have also thought TOEIC to prepare French students for all of these exams.
I use different software to teach such as Zoom or Skype.
I use different resources (such as PDF and Word documents) for my classes. I also have a virtual whiteboard available.
A typical session with me takes between 1h30 minutes to 2 hours.
I like helping students that are between A1 to B2 levels however my main goal is to help students to become advanced or fluent.
I would be happy to adapt to any student based on your objective, of course.
One of my main goals is to support your vocabulary and grammar.
What really made me unique is that I was in the same position as you and today I have become fluent.
If you have any questions, you could contact me and I would be glad to have a conversation with you.
See you soon.
