My passion for education and cross-cultural communication prompted me to transition from a career in law to teaching English Soft Skills and Cross-Cultural Communication overseas. I have taught in-person and online classes in a variety of countries including Thailand, Malaysia, Italy, Spain, France, Germany, Russia, the UAE, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, and Turkey. I specialised in teaching Young Learners, Academic English, Business and General English. I helped students acquire the ability to understand, speak, read, and write in English. I provided academic English instruction to students aiming for success in academic settings, focusing on advanced language skills, essay writing, and academic vocabulary. My experience has made me self-motivated and skilled in teaching students of various proficiency levels. I create personalised lesson plans tailored to each individual's learning goals and areas for improvement. I have a Bachelor of Laws (LLB) degree, which served as the foundation for my legal skills. To further my interest in justice, I pursued a Master's degree in law and comparative criminal justice, focusing on immigration and modern slavery concerns. I recently completed a CELTA (Certificate in English Language Teaching to Adults) course to improve my English language teaching skills. My educational background demonstrates a dedication to both legal knowledge and language instruction.

**SSH** Hi, I'm Sophie (she/her) ! I'm currently studying English Literature, French and Dutch at the University of Sheffield, and I can't wait to share my passion for books, languages and everything in between! I have been tutoring for 2 years and am offering tutoring in English, French and History to A level. I finished my A Levels in summer 2021 so I completely understand not only the current exam system and latest revision techniques, but also how stressful school life can be, both inside and out of the classroom. My goal in becoming a tutor is to do my best to help you achieve your personal goals, whether you're aiming to simply pass a class or achieve the highest grade possible. Our sessions will be focussed around how to achieve your best- everyone's 'best' is different, but yours is what matters to me. Outside of studying, I am usually found relaxing and having a giggle with my friends, curled up with a good book (my favourites are usually fantasy or romances) and a cup of coffee, or dancing! I've also been vegan for three years and a huge animal lover. Degree in English Literature and Modern Languages and Cultures (French and Dutch) (September 2021- present) I am currently in my third year and I am averaging a First across my first and second year. A Levels (achieved May 2021) A*: English Literature (AQA), French (AQA), History (Edexcel) A: Extended Project [English Language focus] GCSEs (achieved June 2019) 9: French (AQA), Combined Science 8: History (Edexcel), Religious Studies, Latin, English Language 7: English Literature (AQA), Mathematics

Hey! My name is Dylan Archer and I'm currently studying Economics, Finance, and Banking at the University of Portsmouth. I play goalkeeper in football and corner in American Football, both at university level with my American football career taking me to two national championships in my first year of playing. I grew up and studied in Derby and took Geography, History, and English Language at A-Level. I think the most important thing in tutoring is the atmosphere between the tutor and student, with a calm environment allowing for learning to take place and the comfort of being able to ask questions. I love studying languages too and over the summer I practiced my Urdu and Punjabi (very basic now) and I currently am studying Arabic through my university. GCSES: English Literature: 7 Mathematics: 8 English Language: 8 History: 8 Geography: 8 Science: 8/8 Drama: 9 A-Levels: History: C Geography: A English Language: A PSAT: 1540 (couldn't take real one due to Covid-19) University (currently studying/on track for): Economics, Finance, Banking (1st w/ honours)

I have always been drawn to the power of storytelling, and have nurtured this passion through my BA (Hons) in English Literature from the University of Exeter. I am a frequent writer of short fiction, creative non-fiction, and poetry and am currently studying for an MA in Creative Writing. For the past four years I have worked primarily as a private English tutor, with the majority of my students being GCSE and A-Level candidates. As a student myself I was lucky enough to have exceptional teachers and tutors who not only instilled their enthusiasm for the subject in me, but also gave me the confidence needed to achieve my full potential. These principles form the foundation of my own tutoring, and it is of vital importance to me that students feel they are obtaining valuable skills and knowledge which will serve them for life. Following the Covid-19 pandemic I sought to provide some stability and reassurance to students given the unprecedented disruption to their education and I feel very fortunate to say that I have supported them in achieving, and often exceeding, their target grades. Exam boards I have experience with include: AQA, Edexcel, OCR, & WJEC. I primarily teach secondary school students. Specialising in GCSE & A-Level. My SEND experience includes working with students who have Dyslexia, ADHD, and ASD. BA English Literature (University of Exeter) MA Creative Writing (University of Exeter) MSc International Marketing (University of Reading) I specialise in English and creative writing, with a personal interest in prose and writing for the screen.

Levels and Subjects I teach Lower Level: All Sciences, Maths and English GCSE: Biology, Chemistry, Physics, Maths, Business Studies, Accounting and Economics A-level: Business Studies, Accounting and Economics Exam Board Experience: AQA, Edexcel, WJEC, OCR, 11+ Languages: English fluent Preferred student age group: Primary, GCSE, A-Level About me: Hi there! My name is Abdurrehman and I am a Business student at the University of Salford. My friends describe me as hardworking, dedicated and focussed. Business and Economics has a huge importance in my life, not only because of its link to my career, but because of an interest I have in me. Having attained AAB in my A Levels and 8s and 7s in GCSEs, I have developed from an outstanding student to an incredible tutor. In high school my Maths teachers always applauded my excellent problem solving and maths skills as I acheived an 8 in GCSE, and I am looking forward to sharing these tips with students of my own. I enjoy teaching science because, apart from being great at it in my GCSEs, i like how vast the subjects are and how ever evolving they are. From my own journey, there has been many instances where I have taught myself content because the way the teacher taught me I just didn't understand. This made me an independent learner and encouraged me to reach my highest potential - not to mention all the amazing tips and tricks I discovered and am excited to pass on to my students too. I have a vast experience of teaching, from volunteering experiences to jobs in different settings with tutoring - which helped me fine tune my teaching skills and made me really adaptable to different teaching styles. As a young tutor, the age gap between me and my students will be relatively small and will allow me to understand them much better, as well as make the lessons more fun and engaging as I know how to meet their needs.

Lucetta Lam

Teacher Kehinde is a very patient teacher and he is organized and confident to gradually build up my son’s confidence and clarity of concepts in the math subject. I would highly recommend those students who lack of confidence and confuse about Math subject to try out teacher Kehinde.

Becky is brilliant!! My kids absolutely love working with her and she sticks to the brief we originally set which was getting my son to have more confidence. The important factor in why I wanted extra support was for my sons confidence and it is working a treat. It definately makes him feel smarter which is perfect.

Answering student's questions about GCSE English online lessons

How affordable is GCSE English tuition?

The cost of GCSE English tuition can be as low as £21.99. The price of each individual lesson is dependent on how long your child would like tuition support and how many lessons they take per week. The more they learn, the lower the price of each lesson! Why not book a free trial session for you and your child to see how we can help?

What other subjects & levels can GoStudent help with other than GCSE English?

We can help your child support with private GCSE English tutoring as well as offering tuition for other subjects and levels. Choose from a whole host of subjects including Maths, Geography, Physics. Your child can learn more than one subject with GoStudent. Your child may need support with GCSE English at the moment but as these needs change we can also offer tuition across different subjects and levels.

How can your child benefit from GCSE English tuition?

The main reason that parents often start to look for a GCSE English tutor is to improve their child’s academic performance. It’s needless to say that tutoring will prepare your child for important exams and tests and address specific problem areas that they might have in a particular subject. Your child’s grades and understanding of the subject will improve when working with a tutor but there are also other benefits you might consider when deciding whether to opt for private GCSE English tutoring. Tutoring encourages self-directed learning. This means that your child will learn to take the initiative in their schoolwork with the result that they will feel less overwhelmed or frustrated with school and more in control of their own learning. They will also learn study skills that will help them in life when it comes to university and beyond. Whether it’s learning to overcome obstacles in their studies, losing the fear of asking questions or even working on their social skills. Sign up for a free trial lesson to discover the benefits of tutoring for yourself.

Can my child take private GCSE English tuition online?

With GoStudent your child can get private tuition online from one of our GCSE English tutors. Online tuition is a great option for you and your child, meaning you don't have to take your child to a class or cover the cost of a tutor to come to your home. Why not see how private tuition can work for you and your child by booking a free trial lesson.
