About Remus:
I'm a professional tutor and philologist with a history of getting results fast through a self-designed language teaching programme that throws away such antiquated ideas as learning by rote and emphasises learning through interaction and activities.

Teaching Experience:

In my four years of teaching at all levels, I've had a 100% rate of success, with beginners getting to an advanced level in a matter of a few months. Previous tutees have gone on to pass exams, home and foreign universities, and to work abroad in a country of their chosen language.

Tutoring Approach:

An individual approach is the cornerstone of my approach to tutoring. I personally tailor my tutelage for each student, taking into account their strengths, weaknesses, interests and aspirations. I dislike the approach of teaching a few phrases by rote - my central aim as a tutor is to teach each tutee how to express themselves.

I used to teach Spanish abroad for kids from 2-17 years old and also for adults and businessman - with particular goals.

About Thomas:
A recent graduate in English Literature and Language, I am passionate about good communication and relevancy. I have intimate knowledge of the current education system as my wife is a secondary school teacher, while my own experience of education was mixed between state primary, private preparatory, online secondary and state sixth form college, before attending a prestigious London university.

I'm a warm and caring person who is willing to tailor his tutoring to each individual pupil with patience and a professional attitude.

I also offer guitar lessons to beginners, which may work alongside pupils studying music up to GCSE level.

Teaching Experience:

I spent four terms working in a private boarding school in West Sussex. This taught me a huge amount about how the teacher/pupil relationship works, and particularly what makes the pupil want to improve and what makes the pupil lazy and demotivated. I've also had a lot of experience working with my fellow undergraduates, many of whom clearly suffered from our education system's lack of formal teaching on grammar and the importance of understanding register in academic writing. This has meant that I've become able to tutor people of my own age, or even older, without patronising them.

Tutoring Approach:

I believe in making education fun, but at the same time in achieving real results. For too long, the education system in our country has meant that pupils are encouraged to settle for second best in terms of how they understand specific subjects. In English this has meant an over-emphasis on comprehension of specific texts, without a wider knowledge of period, intertextuality and context. In History, it has meant increasing reliance on fact-based teaching, without a willingness to grapple with the real issues at stake - for example, in the rise of fascism, or the battle for Civil Rights in the USA.

I believe in educating people to think for themselves and to understand the why as well as the what.

About Caroline Elisabeth:
I am 29 years old. I have an undergraduate degree in Hispanic Studies (2:1) from the Univeristy of Liverpool and an MA in European Studies from the Univeristy of Exeter. I have studied abroad at univeristies in Spain and Portugal and have taken language refresher courses in Montpellier, France and Buenos Aires, Argentina. I love learning and teaching languages and believe they are very important to learn both for being able to travel easily and for helping to break down cultural stereotypes.

Teaching Experience:

I have been a part-time private tutor now for a couple of years (mainly Spanish) and have taught young children, AS level students and adults. I have also worked in Poland as an English teacher to Polish chiildren aged 8-15.

Tutoring Approach:

When I work as a private tutor, I like to meet or speak to the clients first to establish what their specific needs are so I can make the lessons specifically to meet their needs, be they grammar, conversation, writing, reading or any mixture of the above. Depending on what the student wants to achieve and why they are studying the language, sometimes I will use a recognised text book and supplement it with my own materials / materials from other books, or I will use a variety of books and my own materials.

About Nadia:
I am a student of Spanish and Portuguese at the university of Manchester. I have lived 7 years in France and speak it fluently while my level in Spanish is very good and my Portuguese is catching up to my Spanish. I received an A grade in my A-level art and I continued through to a foundation art course at Camberwell-University of the Arts London. So I am aware of the structure required for GCSE and A-level in order to achieve maximum marks and also how to create a good portfolio to get into art colleges. My aims are to finish my degree and do a Masters in translation to enable me to work anywhere in the world and continue with my real passions, ski instructing and painting.

Teaching Experience:

I have experience tutoring French for GCSE and A-level and Spanish for GCSE. My approach varies depending on what the specific focus of the client is requiring. Some students struggle with pronunciation in which case we do a lot of reading out loud, repeating words, learning tricks such as keeping a log of phonetically written words for reference when practising without a French speaker.

I have also been a ski instructor for two years and I am aware of a variety of teaching techniques for different students and try and use a mixture of these to enable maximum learning outcomes.

Tutoring Approach:

For languages:

As stated before it varies depending on the needs of the client. Generally I would start by assessing the strengths and weaknesses of the client and plan accordingly. If the students are currently studying at school then I will try to keep the same schedule if planned according to tenses. I will also help with their homeworks by clarifying the topics and rules of tenses and grammar. I also believe it to be important for the client to develop an interest in the culture and history of the countries of the subject language and will integrate this into the classes for certain tasks. It is very important to be enthusiastic about the topic studied and I am very keen on tapping into the interests of the student i.e. some students respond well to listening to the target language's music in their spare time. On top of this I will be continually assessing the student in order to make sure they are definately improving.

Art:

For art it also depends on the needs and wants of the client. For example if the student needs particular help with GCSE or A-level art I will need to know which board of examination is being used to assess the clients work. Then I will help with techniques, different ways of researching, suggest particular artists and movements relevant to their work, help them develop their ideas. I am also able to take the client on outings to museums and art galleries. I am to develop their knowledge of techniques, art history as well as giving them the methods involved with finding inspiration and letting this carry you through right to the end of a project in a creative and original manner. I can also help with creating a successful portfolio for entry to art college. I also will reccomend activities to do seperate of any course to develop basic skills.
