Grade 9 GCSE Student willing to assist others to succeed and close gaps English, and to more importantly enjoy doing so.

Methodology

I believe in the power of peer-reviewing. I find that learning cannot be achieved simply by talking at someone, which is mainly how it is done in schools, as this way a student is unable to retain information and is not learning from their own interpretations, rather someone else's. With English especially you'll find that students struggle to grasp concepts and lack creativity or forming ideas, and this is because they only know what they have been taught, or told, by their teachers, and are therefore find that they simply are regurgitating rather than actually learning. I believe I can find and open a student's imagination more than their teachers can, and by doing so will form a yearn for knowledge, that we so desire our children to possess.

Experience

I am a GCSE Student currently working towards predicted Grade 9's in all of my courses. I believe in hard work, and dedication, and am here simply to guide others onto the path of success where I direct myself. For me peer reviewing and teaching not only benefits the tutee but also will act as a form of active-learning revision for myself, as I can solidify my own knowledge of the subject as well as teach others.

Shayraz's CV

Shayraz (15)- Hard-working, diligent young man with a bright and clear future ahead of him. Believes in the success of others and finds great contentment in being able to educate and provide for others- has assisted many others in academic achievement and motivation for finding the potential that we all possess.
Known for his wisdom beyond his years and incredible ability for critical thinking and analysis, and has spoken at many seminars including the Srebenica Memorial at age 14, giving a speech about the power of youth and how only together we can overcome the inequality we find ourselves living in today, and will soon be giving a TED Talk in June.
Throughout his academic career he has excelled well beyond his years and from the age of 5 until 10 was put in the higher year-groups' classes to learn, and rarely spent time in his own.
Currently studying in Year 10 and is already working towards a grade 9 in the three science subjects, as well as English and History.
Has had a particular interest in writing since a very young age and has written many poems some of which have been published into books and stories that have entered national school competitions.
Worked with Writer and Social Activist Khadijah Ibrahiim to produce the poetry anthology 'The Dreams of Those who Stay Awake', published last year.
Big fan of Akala, and others who preach the message of the power of reading and education.
Looking forward to spreading knowledge to a wider audience, and allowing others to excel in English and express themselves freely with their own interpretations of texts and allowing them to explore the art that is our language, and freely express themselves on the canvas that is paper using the brush that is the pen.
