Oxford University student providing multi-faceted online teaching in English and communication skills
Methodology
Would you like to improve your communication skills, think more creatively and write more effectively whilst learning more about British culture and current affairs?
I am a humanities student at a leading university with experience tutoring under-18s, giving effective advice for secondary school entrance exams as well as Oxbridge interviews and UCAS personal statements. I am particularly keen to work with young people whose first language is not English, helping them with their confidence in spoken and colloquial language.
Experience
- I have been tutoring in basic literacy, English, Classics, Latin, and, more recently, offering Oxbridge interview preparation and UCAS personal statement guidance to a range of pupils from ages 8-20.
- I also have experience working with people with special needs, as my brother has autism.
- Many of my students are working towards e.g. university or secondary school entrance, and all have been satisfied with their outcomes.
- My aim when teaching is to work with my students to think of more effective ways of thinking, helping to encourage their sense of curiosity and motivation.
