First year student studying Chinese Studies (Mandarin) and French at Durham University

Methodology

My teaching method is based heavily on my own experience in revising for public exams. I find it essential to make sure to learn in as engaging a way possible, whether that's with conversation activities or games, and to make sure you are being tested throughout. Conversation forms a large part of my teaching style - if you can explain an idea to someone then you must understand it yourself.

Background

I am currently a first year student at Durham university, though I live and tutor in London and Suffolk. My mum is an ex language teacher - it's in the family - and languages have long been a passion of mine. I have A level and iGCSE qualifications in Mandarin in French, including 10 A*s at GCSE and an A* in A-level Mandarin. I have had regular babysitting jobs and get on very well with children. I am especially keen to pass on my love of languages.

Harry's CV

Profile:
I am a 20 year old student currently studying Chinese Studies and French at Durham University. I am planning on studying Mandarin at university, and languages have always been an interest of mine. As such, I greatly enjoy making conversation, learning from others and discussion in general. I am hard-working, diligent and happy to perform any task that is required. The majority of my experience is in a corporate setting and the hospitality business, which has served to further my interest in a professional career and in customer interfacing. Additionally, I have a great personal interest in design and fashion. In my own time I design, sew and alter my own clothes. As I hope my CV will highlight, my skills include communication, a professional demeanour under pressure and a willingness to get stuck into whatever tasks are required to complete a job.
