Information About Anastasia:

Personal Description:

I am a confident and happy individual who enjoys watching young minds develop from confusion into clarity as they begin to grasp concepts that previously alluded them. I work as a freelance Communication Support Worker within the educational system and therefore can be flexible with my time. I have had a lot of success with pupils so far, raising grades from Ds to Bs and the occasional A. Obviously this depends on the student's abilities and their desire to learn. I believe that encouraging enjoyment in learning can be beneficial for the whole of the academic mind of the student and can help them learn faster and with more ease. I am particularly passionate about English and correcting spellings and punctuation may seem pedantic but it seeps through the rest of their education and adult career and therefore, in my opinion, is worth spending the time on.

Teaching Experience:

I have been tutoring for over a year with great success for my students in both their attitude towards learning and in their formal exams. My degree gave me experiences in working in a multitude of ways when teaching and therefore, in my tutoring, I can adapt my methods to best suit each student on an individual basis. I work as a Communication Support Worker and often help deaf and hard of hearing students to understand written and spoken English. I am experienced in teaching mainstream, SEN, and deaf students.

Tutoring Approach:

I focus on the student's abilities and use their strengths to help them learn. I create worksheets, activities and set homework. I aim to raise the bar of learning for the whole subject/s required and not just focus on the one concept the student is struggling with, although, obviously, this is also achieved. My aim is to leave the student with the ability to help themselves when they get stuck and to give them a passion for learning that will continue and spread throughout their whole educational life.
