East Linton Tutors & East Linton Tuition

Personal Description:
I work as a Solicitor, working in a busy High-street Firm. I have been working for 10 years. I have been tutoring for the past 7 years and it is something I enjoy immensely.

I am able to obtain all exam papers and mark schemes, in order to help the students.

I am very patient with my students and can keep a calm temperament. I will assist my students in any way possible, in order for them to reach their maximum potential.

As a person, I am very approachable and like-able. This is also my approach as a tutor as I aim to make my students feel comfortable. All the students I have taught have provided me with positive feedback, as they have enjoyed sessions and feel they can relate to my style of teaching.

I am also able to provide sessions in order to assist with coursework deadlines etc and general English speaking and writing.

Teaching Experience:
I have been tutoring for 7 years, with a wide-range of students, from GSCE to Degree level. In addition to this, I have continued tutoring my younger brother, who has now completed his LLB and he further provides me with constructive feedback and the up-to date course material.

I have taught around 40 students, with varying abilities levels, although I have succeeded in helping them improve.

Tutoring Approach:
I take tutoring very seriously and approach each student on their own merits. I am recently qualified I'm my area for work, therefore my approach to teaching is relatively up-to date and contemporary. My recollection of School confirms that the classes in which I excelled, were the ones where the teacher would take an active-role in class. I have incorporated this into my teaching method. I have an individualised teaching approach and adapt my style to the student's needs.

If any students require one-off sessions, for help with coursework or exams, I am able to provide this.
With the exam period forthcoming, I have experience in going through exam techniques and revision methods.

Personal Description:
I am a flexible and gentle teacher who is willing to go miles (literally) to ensure the success of my students.
Patience is needed to provide a long-term improvement of the student. I am an outgoing person with a sense of humour.

Teaching Experience:
My teaching experience stretches over nine years at different schools in Germany and England. I taught English, Biology, German to various levels. I have a deep insight into the ability of students and can easily identify the weaknesses and strengths of a pupil.

Tutoring Approach:
I don't like to overstretch a student at the beginning. It might cause frustration. Gradually increasing the quality of work is better.
I take care that a student says on task, because sometimes it's just lack of concentration. Music,television or even playing computer games while doing work is a hindrance to success. It is important that a student finds his way to the right result, so that his or her confidence increases.

Personal Description:
I was a student researcher in Church laboratory at Harvard Medical School. My research interest lies in synthetic biology and molecular biology. Currently, I am an undergraduate Biochemistry student at the University of Surrey.
I believe that I am a calm, collected person who enjoys encouraging others to take an interest in Science as it is a fast-growing field with a wide variety of job prospects. In my personal experience, one to one tuitions greatly benefited me before I applied to University. For that reason, I would like to provide others with the same opportunity to boost their confidence so that they can excel even more in biology and chemistry.

Teaching Experience:
I have volunteered and Henry Tyndale Primary School from 2012 to 2013, in which I was able to help and teach pupils of ages 10 to 11. Through attending the school every week, I was able to develop my communication skills and learn new teaching methods depending on the student's needs.

When attending Sixth Form College of Farnborough, I tutored AS Chemistry students from 2013 to 2014. This tuition was set up by the college in order to help new students understand difficult questions, equations or coursework. This was a great chance teach them simple tricks to help them overcome anything they struggled with.

Tutoring Approach:
With biology and chemistry, I believe it is vital to understand basic concepts before learning anything in a higher level of detail. Due to this, I believe it is important for tutees to be taught the basics of a topic before learning detail.
If the tutee seems comfortable with a topic and would just like to consolidate, I would test them with some questions from either past papers or textbooks. This will ensure that, they are able to apply their knowledge.

Also, I believe memorizing key terms and definitions is very useful in exams so I use flashcards or small tests during the beginning or end of the tuition session to test their understanding and make sure that they learn these key words and definitions.

My new approach to teaching includes making online presentations containing key concepts and diagrams that will help my tutee learn about a topic with a new perspective.

Personal Description:
I was born in Malatya, Turkey. I attended Hacettepe University.

Teaching Experience:
I have been teaching in Chemistry and Science since 2002 working at several High Schools in Turkey. Between 2016 and 2019, I was working  at a Science School as a Chemistry teacher. During 2 years, I coached and prepared the students for the National Chemistry Olympiad.  .I have been tutoring in Chemistry, Science and Turkish lessons since July 2019 in the United Kingdom to support Turkish students.

Tutoring Approach:
Tutoring is a supportive action both the teacher and student should be involved. It is essential to strengthen the student for the areas that needed to develop. I try my best for my students who have difficulties in understanding the lessons or who want to improve themselves farther.
Especially being new in a country brings some difficulties in the school environment. Changes in the education system, language, culture challenge the families and students. Therefore to have  tutoring support in Turkish helps to adapt and acclimate the students to a new education system and culture.

I enjoy working with families who are fully committed to the process and I believe that the student, tutor and parent(s) working as a team can achieve amazing progress.

I have a Masters degree in Coaching from Warwick University where I am also involved in tutoring Maths teachers in how to get the most out of the different levels of student. As a professional performance coach (who has worked in education and business) I have a unique insight into what facilitates success.

Tutoring Approach:
I love what I do. I am a passionate educator and this is my vocation.

My approach is unique and recognises the need to align conceptual understanding with an ability to apply it in different situations. There is often a disconnect here which explains why pupils struggle in exam situations.

I am currently in the process of collaborating with Warwick University in writing a book that makes Maths more accessible and relevant to the students of today. The plan is to follow up with books at different levels which will support teachers, students and parents.

Personal Description:
I have 14 years' experience as a tutor of both Maths and Business Studies at GCSE and A Level, and have a record of helping students of all abilities to achieve and exceed their target grades.

I believe in a personable approach and work with the student to explore topics and prepare for exams. My style has been appreciated by my clients, many of whom have asked me back to help the younger siblings or recommended me to others.

Outside work, my main interest is travel!

Teaching Experience:
I have tutored both maths and Business Studies since 2006 and have six years' teaching experience, five of which were as a Head of Department. Whilst now working in industry, I have continued to tutor students up to and including A Level. I have worked with students of all abilities to help them exceed their target grade in examinations, including getting top grades.

Tutoring Approach:
Everyone is different and, by its very nature, tutoring is focused on an individual. This makes it very different to learning in a classroom environment. I believe in having an adaptable approach which best reflect the learning style of the individual to bring out the best in them. I also like to bring in real-world examples as a way of contextualising topics.

I will spend time on topics and explain and demonstrate concepts methodically to ensure a full understanding and increase confidence when tackling questions. Rather than just show the 'how', I will show the 'why'. By having this deeper understanding, it helps provide context to a topic and will allow students to approach questions with confidence. I also believe in stretching students to achieve their full potential - I will always encourage you to go the extra mile.
