My experience tutoring began working with a fifteen year old girl a 4 years ago who was struggling with social anxiety and panic disorder. She was unable to go to school and I stepped in to help her pass her GCSEs. The whole experience shaped how I could help influence the student in an engaging and sensitive way, and inspire them to enjoy developing their knowledge. Also, as an experienced editor, it is in my nature to help the individual try and find their best way to express themselves in both an academic and creatively.
I specialise in the following:
ENGLISH LITERATURE:
- Poetry
- Shakespeare
- The novel
- Fiction and Drama
- Literal and inferential comprehension
- Critical reading
- Evaluation of a writer’s choice of vocabulary, grammatical and structures features.
- Comparing and contrasting texts
- Revision/exam preparation and coursework/dissertation help
ENGLISH LANGUAGE:
- Critical reading and comprehension
- Summary and synthesis
- Evaluation of a writer’s choice of vocabulary, form, grammatical and structural features.
- Comparing and Contrasting texts
- Producing clear and coherent text
- Writing for impact and purpose (selecting, organising and emphasising facts, ideas and key points; citing evidence and quotation effectively and pertinently to support views; creating emotional impact; using language creatively, imaginatively and persuasively, including rhetorical devices.
- Creative Writing (in the form of "workshopping" and experimentation fo devices and ideas.)
(If necessary, I have the experience to help students who suffer from anxiety disorder and issues surrounding self-confidence. Providing a tutoring experience that is aligned with the students personal needs and motivations)

Hello, I'm Marie from Oxford, UK. I'm a professional teacher, private tutor, University Lecturer and Continuous Professional Development (CPD) Trainer. My specialist subjects include Business, Marketing, English Language, Media Studies and Sociology, including coursework and exam support, and proofreading / editing assignments.
I'm also a qualified English teacher, and have recently been tutoring students to prepare them for their 11+, 13+, GCSEs, A-Levels and IELTS exams, as well as delivering a complete primary homeschooling programme.
In my career so far, I've been lucky enough to work with some fantastic education institutions including Universities and Colleges in Oxford, India and China. I've delivered professional development training to teachers and professional staff from many different countries, and my work has seen me travel to many places such as Russia, Spain, Switzerland, Malta and Kurdistan. I've also worked as a travelling Governess, accompanying families as they move locations, ensuring continuity and dependable tuition with excellent success rates.
I am passionate about helping my students and clients achieve their goals through education, and I'm equally as happy delivering bespoke training sessions to large groups of staff, teaching a University course, or getting a call from an individual student telling me they've achieved the grade they needed that we worked on in their private study sessions.
Before I retrained as a teacher, I worked as a Marketing Manager and Project Manager for a University in Oxford, and these skills and responsibilities have helped to shape my adaptable teaching style and capabilities.
I would love to hear from you and find out about your training and education needs, and let's achieve your goals, together.

Teaching Experience
Maxim has tutored since graduating from Oxford in 2019. He has delivered over 1000 hours of tutoring, a testament to his commitment and dedication. In 2022, one of Maxim's students scored an A* in A-Level Politics, despite the Covid-19 pandemic. His students regularly gain top grades in A-levels and coursework. In 2021, both long-term Politics students got their desired grades and went to their dream universities.
Maxim has experience across the Humanities, including various A-Level Politics syllabi and exam boards.
The Oxbridge tutorial system (going through essays forensically and discussing them in depth) is central to Maxim's tutoring. These were, in his own words, "the best years of my life, with a learning experience I'm keen to share."
Testimonials
“The amount of history and your ability to create a timeline in order to help me learn the syllabus, although (it) may seem like common sense, makes the course much easier to understand thanks to you.”
Andreas (A-Level Politics student)
“Maxim tutored our son regularly throughout his A level Politics course. He was awarded an A* in his exam. Maxim has extensive background knowledge about the subject, exam technique and offers patience and persistence. Our son said he misses the sessions now the exams are over, which is a real endorsement. I would thoroughly recommend Maxim.”
Jane (parent of former Politics student)
Bio
Maxim is a Masters student in London, studying Broadcast Journalism. Before that, he spent two years working exclusively as a freelance History and Politics tutor.
He spent three years at Trinity College, Oxford reading History and Politics. At Oxford, Maxim focused on British and international politics, achieving high marks in International Relations and US Politics. While a student, Maxim also appeared on University Challenge and was twice an elected member of the Oxford Union's governing body.

Hi! I'm David, a student at the University of Edinburgh. I love reading, cooking, swimming, and playing the piano. I have two years of experience in tutoring, as I spearheaded a volunteering program during my last two years of high school to tutor kids in a wide array of subjects. Therefore, I am trained to tutor in most high school subjects, although I am best at tutoring science subjects (biology, chemistry, and mathematics.) I am always open to new ideas and different methods of teaching in order to provide the best experience for my tutees. I look forward to helping as much as possible, so contact me in order to set up a free trial session, so that we can establish learning goals and design a strategy to achieve them.

I am a student at the University of Manchester pursuing a course in Biochemistry. I went to GEMS Modern Academy in Dubai and ranked 6th in my grade in my finals.
I have been mentoring on TutorHouse for more than a year now and have helped many students improve their grades and reach their academic goals. I have also tutored a lot during high school. These mostly included clearing doubts or explaining certain concepts to middle school students. I mostly tutored in subjects like Mathematics, Biology and Chemistry.
I am a fun, enthusiastic and patient person who loves pop music, and comedy shows and is committed to the conservation of our environment.
I want to become a tutor as I have always wanted to teach and help others who struggle to understand a concept. I want to help students who have an innate will to learn and all they need, to reach their goals, is some extra support and help.
I normally begin my classes by asking the student what they want to learn or discuss during the lesson. If they have a doubt about a concept, I ask them to explain the same concept to me in their own words and correct them wherever necessary. I provide some good methods to study or approach a concept they struggle with. I will conclude the lesson by asking them if there is anything they would like to discuss in our next session so that I could prepare some practice questions in advance.

Hi there! I'm Ilinca, and I come from a family of teachers. I have learned the essential skills one must hold to make lessons interactive, enjoyable and informative. I aim to encourage students and help them build their confidence while improving their current skills. My teaching method varies on each individual’s preferences and goals. For adults, classes are more structured and based on particular aims and goals. When working with children, I often use visual material to boost engagement.
Before moving to Scotland for my degree, I attended an international school in Germany, where I lived for 11 years. I graduated as valedictorian in Criminology and Sociology, finishing with a 1st-degree classification. I also hold a B2 DELE certification, having studied Spanish for over 9 years. I am TEFL certified, passing the examinations with a 95%. I have experience teaching English, Spanish and German to both children and adults, and completed my Postgraduate Degree in Education in Secondary Languages.
I am a fully qualified MFL teacher, currently working in England.

Is an English degree worth it?
Definitely! Whether you plan on pursuing the romantic life of a writer, want to start a career in journalism or even marketing, an English degree will teach you skills that you can apply anywhere. An English degree is also a great foundation for anyone wanting to become a lawyer.
How can an English degree tutor help me?
