Ben H
Experienced and engaging tutor of English and music.
I firmly believe that teaching is a two-way process. Whether I'm in a classroom or online, I will create a dialogue so the pupils/tutees feel involved in the process and are able to question, inquire and verbalise what we are learning. Very few people learn by being told something once, so my tutoring sessions are generally about discovery, mastery and learning side by side to answer the big questions along with my years of expertise providing the content.I have worked in education for 12 years in all sorts of settings, with a huge range of pupils. My track record is impressive and I firmly believe...

Effective tutor
My name is Lauren, I am a current BA Theology student at Canterbury Christ Church University. I have tutored in GCSE geography before online.

I have also tutor in GCSE English, although I don’t offer that service anymore, I approach the teaching in a similar way. For example, we would discuss relevant quotations and language techniques. Again focusing on weaker parts at stages, I did make sure to cover as much as possible with both s...

Charilaos V
Charilaos has a clear understanding of how specifically the AQA board for GCSE English Literature works. He provides you a structure for writing a paragraph which helps attain all the AOs naturally when writing. He also gives you feedback after writing your own essay which makes it feel very personalized. He has a very strong understanding of the texts studied in GCSE English Lit and if you are looking for a GCSE English Lit teacher I highly recommend choosing him.

Feba A
Feba is a fantastic tutor,greatly improving my understanding of both biology and chemistry. She takes time on topics I struggle with and tailors her lesson around them, often creating presentations to help me understand the material better. She explains concepts in biology and chemistry thoroughly and always encourages curiosity. I have never felt discouraged to ask questions.
Furthermore, she has gone out of her way to support me beyond lessons including helping with my university reference which is incredibly helpful as a private A-level candidate. She’s flexible and understanding with lesson times accommodating to your schedule. Overall, her support is consistent, genuine and above what I expected from a tutor. Could not recommend more!
