Film and Media expert offering support across a number of subjects, including maths and English.
I'm an active film producer and film theorist who takes on some private tutoring work on the side. As such, I tend to only have one or two clients at a time, meaning my time with you is focused and catered towards your individual needs.
I started my career in film after completing an undergraduate degree in Media Production at Northumbria University in Newcastle. Before graduating, I was already working in film production offices in the city and delivering work which won awards globally, including a BAFTA nominated feature film, I Am Nasrine (2012, dir Tina Gharavi).
My experience has also seen me working with the delivery teams as part of large British film festivals, including Berwick Film & Media Arts Festival, Sheffield Doc/Fest and now London Short Film Festival.
Over the last 3 years I have supplemented this work by offering my services as a tutor, specialising in media studies and film. I have worked with private clients of all ages: either to support a young learner in their understanding of filmmaking skills, film history or perhaps the basics of animation, to augment a college or academy application; or working with adult learners, delivering more targeted sessions on specifics such as video editing, script writing or project management.
Now based in South London, and shortly to complete an MA in Film & Screen Studies from Goldsmiths University of London, I am keen to share my expertise with new clients via Tutor House.
I'm happy to discuss possibilities and opportunities with anyone whose curious to know more, and create a tuition plan which works best for you

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.

I am an engaging and proactive personal tutor with 12 years of experience in tutoring English, Drama, and Creative Writing.
I work with GCSE, A-Level and undergraduate students, predominantly on their English Literature studies
I adapt every session to the specific needs of the student and ensure that each lesson is successful in obtaining their personal goals.
In Literature tuition, we will focus on analytical skills and essay writing (considering structure, context, and critical analysis). We will also compile a revision portfolio, which greatly aids the student when preparing for their exams, allowing them to review their work in a clear, compartmentalized, and accessible manner.
For many years, I worked as a school tutor with students from year 2 to year 13. This has provided me with a strong and comprehensive understanding of academic demands and the school curriculum. Additionally, I have experience teaching KS1 and KS2 subjects and have extensive experience working with SEN students.
I hold a Masters Degree in Creative Writing and have led many writer's workshops for young people. I run a theatre company in London and have taught workshops and classes with drama students, varying in age from 9 to 19.
I am a positive, reliable, supportive, and fun teacher who works hard to ensure that each student is able to learn in an enjoyable and accessible manner.

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.

I am a UCL English graduate with extensive experience in writing, editing and peer reviewing essays, critical reviews and texts.
I have further tutoring experience teaching digital skills, including Photoshop, Microsoft Office and video editing. Across my time at UCL, I hosted workshops in the film studio as the Film Society's Documentary Producer, guiding students as they directed and edited short films. As an English student, I further mentored younger students through the course, engaging with texts and practising writing and proofreading - in a degree that required a fortnightly essay.
My background is in writing and sub-editing magazine content, filmmaking and creative writing. As a keen reader, with a strong knowledge of literary and film history, current affairs and global news, my tutoring approach takes in the bigger picture, considering the context of what is being studied and its purpose in today's world.
Always friendly and approachable, I am a strong listener and clear communicator, ready to provide insight on cultural and digital skills.

This is what motivates me to teach.

Hello! I have experience with one-on-one tuition across the humanities, with a specialty in English language and literature. I have helped students tackle GCSE exam preparation to proof-reading degree dissertations to helping adults with developmental disabilities write fiction. I would be thrilled to help you, too. I am able to support SEN students across a range of areas, including dyslexia, dyscalculia, aspergers, ADHD and more.
Whether it's specific help needed on a set text or guidance required for exam technique, I am here to work with you to improve your grades! I am a filmmaker and fiction writer so I am very happy to provide help with creative writing and general writing skills, too.
I have been a teaching assistant for graduate-level classes at Columbia University in the United States, helping students to hone their writing and editing skills. I received a BA from Bristol University in English Literature and a master's from Columbia University Graduate School of Journalism, where I was a Pulitzer Fellow, awarded to the top five students in a cohort of 250.
Apart from my teaching experience, I have worked for an HBO documentary show in New York, made award-winning documentaries and narrative short films, worked on the arts desk at The Daily Telegraph newspaper in London and as a reporter at The Tibet Post in northern India. I have written about films for GQ and HuffPost, and my fiction is published in The Stinging Fly, an Irish literary magazine.
In my spare time, I love to read (anything and everything, with a preference for American fiction), watch films, spend time in nature, meditate and cook for family and friends. I also love animals, and have a 10-year-old cat named Stevie.
I look forward to working together!

I am a Senior Learning Mentor at a primary school in Waltham Forest working with Early years foundation stage (EYFS) and KS1 children, however I have worked and gained experience in KS2 and tutored KS3 and KS4. I have been working in education and as a tutor for over 3 years. I have extensive knowledge of the national curriculum which has helped me tutor children with their SATS and GCSES and to also improve their confidence. I am able to offer tuition in a number of subjects particularly English, Maths, Reading and Media studies. I also supply resources such as up to date and past SATS and GCSE papers to support each child.
I am very passionate about children and am a firm believer that children need the right environment and support in order to grow and reach their vast potential. I advocate for the child-centred approach (CCP) to tailor my sessions around the children and their needs. I specialise in looked after children and Special educational needs (SEN) but I am also experienced in tutoring those with other requirements. I regularly speak with each child’s parents to inform them how the sessions are going and to also find out how their children are doing at school. This helps me to set up an assessment plan to show their progress and the work I am doing.
