Hello! My name is Sophie and I graduated from Durham University in English Literature in June 2024.

I grew up internationally and lived in several countries before finally moving back to the UK.I also write my...

I teach each area of knowledge a few times, supporting and demonstrating how to tackle problems together, before applying the knowledge gained to exam questions, once students feel confident. Teaching one-to-one, allows me to work at the pace required by individual students, filling in their personal gaps to enable them to progress. I use a range of resources from practice sheets (sometimes a bit of good old-fashioned practice is exactly what’s required!) and flash cards to interactive games online so that students can experience learning from a few different angles. This can be particularly h...
