Fiona - Wisbech tutor
Information About Fiona:
Personal Description:
I am a 19 year old qualified TEFL tutor from Emneth, near Wisbech. I am taking a gap year and need to earn money to pay for my studies (I hope to become a history teacher). I love working with children and teenagers of all ages, and have been involved with several youth groups, the last one being a drama workshop group for primary school children.
I have many interests including drama, history, language, travel, media and arts and crafts which I practice alot in my spare time and have linked in to some of the youth groups I have partaken in.
Most of all I like to make learning fun for all and to relate to every individual student for how they themselves are.
Teaching Experience:
This is my second year of teaching, though prior to this it has part-time in the holidays. I have done many one to one and two to one jobs as a private TEFL teacher. This summer I also had the pleasure of working in a summer school as one of three teachers, where I had to devise my own lessons and teach a class full of foreign students in English, which was an enjoyable challenge. Their ages ranged from 13 to 18. The oldest student I have taught was 25, the youngest was 13, but the norm is between 13-19.
I have also studied both German and Spanish at A2 level, achieving a C and an A respectively, and therefore I would like to offer my services as a tutor in these languages at a primary school level for basic to intermediate skills. At my college, I joined a group of learning support students, and my role was to assist my language teachers in their year 7 and 8 classes (ages 11-13) so I do have some experience in teaching foreign languages.
Tutoring Approach:
I would love the opportunity to work with new students and I am adaptable to whatever tutoring services you require in these subjects. I am also open to trying new things in lessons be they using media such as famous songs, films and books, or drama exercises and games along with grammar and of course reading, listening, speaking and writing.
Being relatively young myself, I feel that I can understand young people well and can respond to them in a fun and authoritative manner, using encouragement and praise to help struggling students. I try to bring things to the students level, using modern developments to keep their interest piqued.
