Hi there! I am an experienced and empathetic English Literature and Language tutor with over 5 years of experience and many success stories under my belt. I have experience teaching English Literature and English Language for the following levels and exam boards: A-Level— AQA, OCR, WJEC Eduqas; GCSE— AQA, OCR, WJEC Eduqas; Key Stage 3, as well as the 11+ exams. I'm also very interested in tutoring students at the undergraduate level. I only (fluently) speak English, and I do not have any SEN tutoring experience. My approach to tutoring is student centric, with a focus on developing skills via scaffolding. I encourage participation and employ multimedia learning tools when and where appropriate. Empathy and support are the cornerstones of a good classroom experience, so I am highly patient with all of my students and try to structure my tutoring to build on their schoolwork and complement their existing learning. My proudest moments are when something has 'clicked' for one of my students that they have previously struggled with in class! In my spare time, I (predictably) enjoy reading, walking and listening to podcasts, but I'm also an enthusiastic home cook, amateur forager and volunteer at a local art gallery. I have something of a tech-y side also, and I've been known to tinker with computers and play videogames (usually on the artsier side)!

Richards Davidson

My tutor has helped me so much when I first started year 7 I didn’t quite understand how to do the math and as I got further and further into the year I gave up on my homework but this year I got a tutor and have caught up on all my homework . They help you understand so much more in an easier way.

Levent Öztürk

Its my third month with GoStudent and I am fully satisfied with all the services especially my teacher Marco Cespa who is a perfect teacher by all means. He can teach Italian to anyone... Also, many thanks to Gizem Erin for her problem solving approach with her always cheerful voice. It is exactly what I have get which Fulya Tokmakoglu has explained and I am very happy with it. I do definitely recommend GoStudent.

Tracy

We paid for a block of sessions up front as this gave us better control over booking sessions. We started at the beginning of this year with English and Maths to help our son pass the GCSEs. I would highly recommend it. In particular our English tutor Maire Ryan who has been great. She has great enthusiasm and knowledge and knows how to get the best out of our son. His confidence and ability has definitely improved and only wished we’d done it sooner. She gives brilliant feedback straight after the lessons and I think she deserves tutor of the month! Would definitely recommend. Tracy

All you need to know about IGCSE tuition

What is the IGCSE?

The IGCSE (which stands for the International General Certificate of Secondary Education) is taken by students aged 14-16 (Year 10 and 11) to prepare them for further pre-university level study, such as A-levels.

It offers the same level of education as a traditional GCSE but does not have a UK-centric curriculum. For example, Shakespeare is a compulsory part of GCSE English Literature but not the IGCSE.  

Children in state schools usually take GCSEs whilst those in private and international schools are more likely to take IGCSEs. Universities do not distinguish between the two when it comes to entry requirements. The exams are assessed externally.

What is the focus of the IGCSE?

The IGCSE focuses on developing understanding, skill, and knowledge in the following areas:

  • Subject content

  • The application of knowledge and understanding to new as well as familiar situations

  • Intellectual enquiry

  • Flexibility and responsiveness to change

  • Working and communicating in English

  • Influencing outcomes

  • Cultural awareness

What subjects are studied?

IGCSEs are available in a broad range of subjects but curriculums vary considerably depending on the school.

Students typically take seven to nine subjects, which must include the core subjects of English, mathematics and science (biology, chemistry, physics).

Optional subjects include humanities (history, geography), modern languages, the creative arts (art, music), STEM (science, technology, engineering and mathematics) and sports.

Preparing for the IGCSEs

Historically, the GCSE had a greater amount of coursework in the syllabus compared to the IGCSE. This has changed in recent years and both qualifications are based mainly on the end-of-course exams.

The exams test theoretical knowledge, practical skills, problem-solving abilities and critical thinking skills – which are essential for further education as well as future careers. 

Revision is key to retaining information and reinforcing understanding and should be done regularly rather than cramming all the content at the last minute.

Practicing past papers and taking mock exams will allow you to become familiar with the exam structure, improve your time management skills and discover any areas of weakness.

How can a tutor help with preparing for the IGCSEs?

A tutor can help at any stage of the process, whether it is over the two years of study or in the run-up to the exams.

GoStudent IGCSE tutors have experience in the specific subjects covered in the curriculum as well as a proven track record of success. They offer personalised lessons that can target problematic areas and can help create realistic and achievable study schedules that balance your time across the different subjects.

ICGSE tutors can also teach you effective study techniques. These will help you not only with the exams but in your future academic career.

If you are struggling with either the coursework or exam preparation, don’t delay seeking help. Feeling prepared and confident for your exams allows you to have a clear and focused mind - and achieve to your full potential.

Answering student's questions about iGCSE level online lessons

Is private iGCSE tuition affordable?

Your child can get iGCSE tuition for as low as £21.99 per session. The price of each private tuition session depends on how regularly and for how long your child takes tuition with us. Book a free trial session with us and you can find out how affordable private tuition with GoStudent can be for you.

How many other levels does GoStudent offer other than iGCSE tuition?

As well as private iGCSE tuition, GoStudent can help your child with 11 other levels. Pick from many subjects including Spanish, Economics, French. And with GoStudent your child isn't tied into one level. If they are taking iGCSE tuition but then need support with a different level, we can help them get that support with a tutor specialised in that level.

How can your child benefit from iGCSE tuition?

The main reason that parents often start to look for a iGCSE 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 iGCSE 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 iGCSE tuition online?

With GoStudent your child can get private tuition online from one of our iGCSE 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.
