At present in my early 50s. I began teaching, in a London tutorial college, straight after coming down from Oxford. A few years after that, I interrupted my teaching career to return to university to pursue doctoral research, but I continued to see a small number of private students throughout my time as a post-graduate student. Accordingly, I have somewhere in the region of thirty years’ experience of helping students to realise their potential and, quite often, to exceed their expectations of themselves. My original specialisms were English Language and Literature, and these remain subjects I enjoy teaching immensely, but I have equal experience by now in History of Art, Philosophy, Film Studies, and Religious Studies, each of which I have taught to A level students and undergraduates. I also specialise in Pre-U English. The following is a quotation from the reference supplied by the school from which I resigned last year, after twenty years as Head of English and de facto Head of Humanities, in order to focus on private tuition: ‘Bill’s main virtues as a teacher […] are his infectious enthusiasm for his subjects, his immense knowledge and erudition, his intimate familiarity with past papers and assessment criteria, his commitment to his pupils, his willingness to make supererogatory efforts on their behalf, his provision of extensive and meticulous course notes, and his generosity with his time.’

My name is Samuel and I graduated from Cambridge University in 2007 with a Bachelor's and Master's degree in Electrical and Electronic engineering. In addition to this, I hold a Professional Tutoring Certificate (Distinction awarded) and I am a fully qualified teacher too. I have a passion for teaching/tutoring Mathematics and Sciences (mostly Physics, Chemistry and Biology) to GCSE and A-level students. I have mentored and tutored students from an assorted array of backgrounds since 2002, helping some to get to Oxbridge and Ivy League universities and helping them with interview preparations when requested. My teaching journey started in 2002 when I took a year out working as an assistant/support teacher actively involved in mentoring, lesson planning and marking. I take pride in having been commended for my teaching style where I always ensure to explain everything in the simplest of manners and take an approach that most suits the student to bring out their best effort. After graduating from Cambridge, I went on to seek professional employment as a graduate engineer but never left my passion for teaching. I therefore volunteered as a STEM ambassador where I shared my passion for Science and Mathematics to students from various backgrounds. I continue to take utmost joy and pleasure in tutoring and helping students attain their full potential; and in this regard, I can assure any prospective students that they’ll be getting the most out of their time and money whilst paving way for a bright future.

I am a graduate in Paediatric Neuropsychology from University College London specialising in language disorders and brain injury. I have 2 years of experience working on multiple research projects and have been assisting students in their dissertations for a year now. I can offer help in Research design, statistics, and project planning/write up. My experience in tutoring started as a student tutoring my classmates in statistics, psychology, and biology with very positive results. I currently lecture at degree level the introduction to psychology class and work in brain research. My goal is to create a safe environment in which student will develop the confidence to conduct their projects independently. I like to equip my students with the right knowledge and tools that are needed in research settings. I am familiar with the IB curriculum as an IB student myself, and I can offer support in IA and EE projects. ***Before booking a trial call please send me a message about the topic of your project and a quick description of the problem you are facing.

I graduated from Oxford University with a degree in Classics before going on to become a fully-qualified teacher. I worked in the private school sector for nine years before focussing my career on providing high-quality online tuition. I tutor Classical Civilisation, Latin and Ancient History from KS2 all the way to Undergraduate level and I really enjoy bringing this wonderfully diverse and interesting subject to life for my students. I also have experience in tutoring pupils for 11 and 13+ entrance examinations in English and Verbal Reasoning which I find immensely rewarding. I have mentored students as a supervisor for EPQ projects, with a particular focus on written assignments. Helping learners to develop the quality, sophistication and originality of their written work is something that I love to do. Whilst I worked in a school, I was responsible for helping students to prepare their personal statements for UCAS applications, so I have a wealth of experience in that area. I have worked on applications for a wide variety of subjects, including Economics, Medicine, Psychology, History, and many others. I have an excellent track record in helping my students to achieve offers from their first-choice university. As an Oxford graduate myself, I am well-placed to advise applicants on what to expect from the application and interview process. As a tutor, I aim to create thoughtful, innovative and exciting lessons, which support my students as individuals. I am very motivated, hardworking and dependable, and I get a real sense of purpose from helping my students to achieve the best possible grades.

I recently graduated from Cambridge with a 2:1 in Natural Sciences and would love to share my passion for learning with others by supporting students to achieve their full potential. During my time as a UCAS tutor, I was able to clearly explain advanced scientific concepts by adjusting my teaching methods to suit the unique learning style of each student and applied my TEFL qualification to support English second language students, all of whom went on to receive offers from Russell Group Universities. Whilst tutoring an 11-year-old boy in Maths, he raised his average grade from a C to an A. Having been elected as the Welfare Officer for the Cambridge University Water Polo Team, I emphasise the importance of mental health and aim to promote the emotional wellbeing of all my students. My pet Labrador Goldie may also make occasional drop-ins in the background of tutoring sessions to provide a little well-needed dopamine. :)

I'm currently a PhD student in Psychology at the University of Birmingham and have previously studied at the University of Cambridge where I completed a research-based Masters degree in Psychology. I have over 6 years experience in tutoring pupils and university students in Psychology (including statistics and research methods), German (my native language), and Spanish (bilingual proficiency). I have also taught a variety of students online for over 2 years now and feel confident that this format can work well for building a positive learning environment. I always aim for students to feel confident and happy at the end of a lesson, which I believe is just as important subject knowledge. I have in-depth knowledge of the UK GCSE and A Level curriculum in Psychology, Spanish and German (AQA, OCR, Edexcel) and use up-to-date past exam papers to guide my teaching where relevant. Drawing on my experience from successfully publishing in academic journals, I also offer advanced feedback on dissertations or other project work at undergraduate and graduate degree level. In addition, I offer proofreading and individualised feedback to personal statements for university admissions. I plan my lessons to include small pieces of information and intermittent learning goals, balancing explanations with giving students opportunities for applying and practicing the newly learnt information. To ensure continuous progress, my lessons usually start with a quiz or a quick recap of the previous lesson’s content. If desired, I provide students with further useful materials to be completed independently in between lessons. Where possible, I like to connect study material to real life examples that students can relate to. I’ve observed that when seeing the personal relevance of the subject matter, students have often shown significant learning progress, motivation and understanding. I always welcome questions and feedback. I’m very much looking forward to continue working with a range of different students!

I am a professional musical educator, historian, and performer based in the UK. I graduated from Cambridge University with a MA in Music, before postgraduate study in Clarinet Performance at the Royal Academy of Music, where I graduated with highest honours and the prestigious DipRAM. I balance a high-profile performing career with educational posts at Merchant Taylors' School, Hertfordshire and the Royal Academy of Music, London, where I teach music history, theory, aural skills, analysis and university interview preparation, as well as online tutoring on a freelance basis. I am also experienced in proof-reading, editing and coaching students in writing, providing feedback for extended pieces of work such as dissertations, academic theses and personal statements, regardless of the subject of specialisation. In my teaching practice I always endeavour to pass on my enthusiasm for the craft of music to all my students, irrespective of age or ability. My teaching ranges from near-beginner to diploma/advanced level. For my younger/lower-level students I try to create a rounded approach that focuses on fun and freedom to explore, treating each aspect of their musical study as feeding into the others rather than being discrete elements. I try to always use a piece of music as the starting point for a new topic or piece of information, rather than introducing them as abstract ideas. With my advanced students I encourage them to penetrate deeper into the music that they are studying; to consider and discover aspects of music history and context; to broaden their listening and musical experiences to include a variety of different genres and styles. Whether the student be at a beginner or advanced level, I try to tailor the programme and pace of study to each student's needs, rather than being governed by examination schedules and syllabuses. If my students show an interest in a particular style, genre, composer or artist, or perhaps if I believe that a specific piece, melody or song will most effectively open the door to a new topic or area of study, I will try to incorporate those into my tuition. Being a freelancer requires a high level of organisation and time management, and I rigorously apply these principles to every aspect of my professional life. Keeping detailed records of a pupil's progress and trajectory is very important, as is maintaining active lines of communication via the relevant procedures.

Through my 2-year journey during International Baccalaureate (IB), I learnt that the most crucial element in success is the bond between a student and the teacher. Although I had some "bad" teachers in the past, I wouldn't be here if it wasn't for my teachers in Bromsgrove School. For the last 4 years, I have been creating a bond between me and my tutees which lasts to this day. As my IB journey was not too long ago, I can relate with all problems you are facing. Therefore, I can assure you, our lessons together will overcome any problems in Maths, Physics and Economics whether it is A Levels or IB.

I am currently studying towards my PhD degree in Mathematics at Queen Mary University of London (QMUL) and at the same time, since 2017 I am employed by QMUL as a Teaching Associate for various Schools within the college. Being employed as a Teaching Associate for the Schools of Mathematical, Biological and Engineering Sciences at QMUL equipped me with a certain level of initiative and commitment when it comes to resolving complex situations that may arise within the classroom. The modules I have taught range from “Probability & Statistics” to “Data Analytics with Excel”, always within the field of Mathematics and Physics. I am experienced in submitting accurate reports and working efficiently within a team, due to my PhD course. Apart from my academic teaching experience, since 2018 I have been employed as a Private-Tutor for Kaleido Tutors London as well as BE Education, where I had the opportunity to teach students of various ages on Mathematics and Physics for GSCEs, A-Levels and Cambridge Pre-U. Moreover, I familiarized myself with online tutoring, by providing lessons over Skype for students who were not able to physically attend the session. This taught me how to continuously engage with students and enhanced my ability to correctly evaluate situations where students lack the understanding of important notions related to the subject taught. During 2018-2019, I was employed as an Application Consultant at the Careers & Enterprise Center for the Careers Group UCL & QMUL where I learned how to quickly build rapport and provide targeted advice to students, with respect to their Oxbridge & Greater London Undergraduate and Postgraduate programmes applications. I specialized in applications concerning degrees in Natural Sciences (Mathematics, Physics) but I also got valuable experience in Engineering and Biology subjects. Moreover, I prepared the students for their upcoming interviews for their placement by providing mock-interviews and various methods to answer difficult questions. These one-to-one appointments taught me how to handle personal data with discretion.

Hi, I’m Dharani! I am a junior doctor and have been a tutor for 5 years, teaching maths and science up to A-Level. In addition to my 5 years of tutoring, I have experience as school mentor, helping a group of Year 12 students with their AS Biology during lunchtimes. The Sessions: Before the session, it would be helpful if you could let me know what you would like to cover. At the start, I will give you a topic overview and then we can do some exam questions to find out which areas need more work and to develop a good exam technique. I will try to be enthusiastic and make the session enjoyable so that you will be more engaged and therefore grasp the concepts better. I'm applying to medical school - can you help me? Yes! I have been through the application process and am familiar with how intense and demanding it can be! I hope I can impart some of my knowledge and advice to reduce the stresses of your university application and hopefully enable you to go into the process feeling a little more clued up.
