Trusted teacher: Graduating with a First in English Literature in 2017 from Trinity College, Cambridge, I have tutored 250+ hours in the past two years, at all levels from 7+ to A-Level, and in exam boards from AQA to the UKISET for international students. I have taught both English and international students, and so am familiar with the varieties of difficulty that students can encounter and a variety of approaches for addressing them. I enjoy re-examining the elementals of the subject through tutoring. My students have all registered often substantial improvements and I continue to be asked back by different families if they feel they need a boost. I'm happy to provide references from students and parents. I have taught a variety of age ranges for school admissions from 7 to 13+. I have worked with students aiming for schools including Godolphin and Latymer, Harrodian, Kings Canterbury and Wycombe Abbey. The problems students have had have varied each time, from simple confidence and time-keeping issues, to more difficult ones like English being a second language or dyslexia. However every pupil I’ve taught so far has markedly improved and gained admission to at least one of the schools of their choice. I think my main strength as a tutor is an ability to explain concepts dealing with question structure and exam technique, and help the student to gently internalise them and gain their own confidence. I aim to strike a balance between engaging, personal commitment to making the student see and realise an organic interest in reading and writing, alongside the necessity of navigating exam requirements - but without making them seem restrictive or daunting. I really enjoy trying to individualise lessons for the student's specific needs and so will also try to stoke a personal interest and response to material studied, as I believe this makes for a much more enjoyable and painless process of learning. I am always keen to recommend or discuss specific books or authors of possible help or interest to students or parents. I aim to strike a balance between engaging, personal commitment to making the student see and realise an interest in reading and writing, alongside the necessity of navigating exam strictures and requirements - without making them seem restrictive or off-putting. I can also help with general essay-structuring/researching/writing skills in subjects not related to English. I can also help with Drama and Theatre-related studies.

I am a Mechanical Engineer and completed by degree with distinction. Maths was one of my favourite subjects in School & Engineering College. My daughter is in Year 2. During this COVID-19 lockdown, I started teaching my daughter as I realised she was not upto the mark in Maths skills. I was so busy in my normal job that it never struck me that my daughter needed help with her Maths. In last 2 months we both have worked very hard on her Maths. I can now confidently say that she has become very good in Maths and we both feel proud about it. I have now even started with Year 3 Maths with her so that when she starts her school in September, she is already familiar with it. She is becoming more and more confident and I feel good about it. This is the best job I have done in this lockdown period and I am so happy to see my kid happy and confident. I now want to share what I have learnt with my daughter with any other kids who might want some assistance to brush up their Maths skills. It is very important to have a strong Maths base as that helps with their confidence and to do better in senior classes. I plan to take only few kids to start with for online teaching. After 2 months of hard work with my daughter, I have my own tricks and games to help develop the skills needed for good Maths foundation for any kid out there who wants to be good and confident in Maths. Also as this is aimed for primary kids, the each online class will be for half an hour. What I have realised with my daughter is that she is best first half an hour and then she starts to loose focus and gets tired. So ideally what I am aiming for is a half hour class where we will cover one Math skill and questions on that skill. Also I will give them homework on that skill for which there would be a deadline to return so that I can see where they are progressing and where they need more support. With my daughter I also do 15 minutes of mental maths every day. This is very important for continuous progression and learning. If you will opt for this session too then I can explain it over the phone call how it will works. If what I have mentioned above interests you, please feel free to call me for a chat and I will be happy to take you through the process of how we can achieve the best results for your kids. Thankyou for your time to read this and I look forward to hearing from you. Many thanks Sachin
