I graduated university in the Netherlands just about 2 years ago and obtained a a double degree in English and economics! I am now beyond excited to help you get better at math, economics, business studies, English, or maybe a combination of all 4 haha! I currently am still living in the Netherlands but will soon be moving to Vienna to start a new chapter! I really enjoy tutoring and helping people become better at their desired subject(s), it really is incredibly rewarding to watch people make progress and exceed their own expectations with my help. I spent a lot of my teenage years moving around Europe, I ended up settling in Vienna, Austria and going to high school there. I graduated and obtained the IB Diploma before moving to Tilburg, the Netherlands to get a bachelor's degree in Economics and English. Moving to study in the Netherlands was an amazing decision, I have loved every minute here and I highly recommend the Netherlands to all students considering studying abroad! Soon though, I will be moving back to Vienna to start my professional career within the heart of Europe and alongside the people that matter most to me haha

I have taught at The Grange School – an Independent school situated in Hartford, Cheshire. I was at the school for 23 years of which 16 were Head of Department and have just recently taken early retirement. I have taught 11-18 years old and at A level have experience of all examination boards. I have been leader for the NEA aspect of the course for the last 5 years and have mentored students in topics such as The Angevin Empire, Tudor Rebellions, 17th Century Witch-craze and The American Revolution through to Civil War. I have taught A Level and GCSE every year at school and our results have been excellent. We have had nothing less than a B grade since 2018 and this year gained 5 A* 9A and 4 B grades. Our results at GCSE were 100% Grade 7-9 from 42 students half of which were Grade 9. In relation to tutoring I have extensive experience of online teaching and have mentored students at GCSE and A Level. Our school did online teaching during the whole pandemic and I am proficient in using Zoom, Teams and AdobeConnect. I also mentored students who were looking to study History at University including Oxford and Cambridge of which we have had many successes. I have been a team leader, examiner and moderator of coursework at both GCSE and A level for over 10 years working for AQA, OCR and EdExcel. I have also taught Government and Politics and I am able to offer that as well to a very high level. Availability: Flexible weekdays and weekends during term time and holidays. Testimonials: From a parent of an A Level Parent who gained an A * at A Level. I’m delighted you chose today to ‘connect’. I wanted to write to let you know how pleased we are that Jess was so lucky to be taught and inspired by you. Today is a cherry on top moment but we have always appreciated your teaching. We think her very lucky to have had someone like you, who sought to educate rather than just prepare young people to pass exams. The passion for learning that you shared will stay with Jess forever. Hi Mr Robson, I hope you are enjoying a well earned summer holidays and relishing the new ownership for Newcastle. Great news that Molly got her grades (and a A* in History) to go to LSE (and perhaps just as importantly a year out!). As you can imagine, relief, absolute delight and pure emotion has outpoured! Both Lorna and I have so much to be thankful for in the support, relationship and encouragement you have played in her Grange life. We cant express enough our gratitude for the role you have played not just in history teaching but as someone who has been there for her at all times - simply above and beyond. I know Molly has valued your friendship and guidance and I have no doubt she will keep in contact with you. Best wishes to you and once again thank you. I have been a teacher for the past 23 years after working 16 years in the NHS. In my 30s i decided to go back to school and take my GCSEs which i had neglected first time round. I gained a place at the University of Newcastle upon Tyne after gaining 4 A Levels in the course of a year. Is gained a first class degree in History and followed this up by gaining a PGCE and began teaching in 2000. I have expertise at all levels and have worked with children with Special Educational Needs such as dyslexia, I am an avid Newcastle United fan which has not been easy in the past but is definitely getting better. I am passionate about History and have been lucky enough to indulge that passion. I am a keen reader and love cinema and TV. I have been married for 41 years and have two grown up children and two grandchildren.

ABOUT ME I have a deep interest in history, human and physical geography, anthropology, technology, architecture and engineering. I especially enjoy the history and geography of languages and language families. I am a keen traveller, audiophile and technophile, with a love for all kinds of technologies, analogue and digital, new and old. Thanks to COVID I learnt a lot of DIY skills through necessity. My house also has a garden full of fruit trees, so I guess that would make me an amateur gardener by default. I try to keep fit by cycling when possible, but my favourite sport is swimming. TEACHING EXPERIENCE/PREFERENCES The subjects I teach are History, English Literature and Language for GCSE and A-level, as well as EFL/ESL English. I tend to teach students aged 14+, so from Year 9 to Year 13 or older, but I do have a few students younger than this. I use a variety of teaching approaches, ranging from traditional methods of text analysis to modern forms of teaching, such as interactive quizzes, questionnaires and even YouTube videos if they benefit the students learning style. Exam Board Experience: AQA, Edexcel and OCR in the main. WJEC/Eduqas to a lesser extent. Languages:- English: as a first language to advanced level. Turkish: fluent to college level.

Greetings, pleased to e-meet you! I'm a devout maths and physics enjoyer. But don't be fooled by my academic pursuits, for I'm also a lover of history and all things fantastical! My heart beats with excitement for European history, with a dash of far east Asian flair, and I've got an insatiable thirst for knowledge on modern Turkey, Germany, and Russia! I've journeyed through different phases of history, from the grand days of the Roman Republic and the legendary tales of Julius Caesar, to the explosive French Revolution, and even the epic battles of the Napoleonic Wars. But my current quest is to uncover the secrets of the 20th Century, and I'm determined to discover its hidden treasures! And when I'm not busy unravelling the mysteries of time, you can find me wielding my mighty dice as the dungeon master (overseer of games) of Dungeons and Dragons! For over four years, I've crafted immersive campaigns in two worlds, filled with colourful characters and thrilling adventures! Consequently, I've even been imbued with the power to create spinning tales that will entrance and captivate all who read them! But that's not all, dear reader! My love for fantasy and strategy doesn't stop there! I've been enchanted by the epic adventures from Middle-Earth namely The Lord of the Rings since I was but a young hobbit (4ish), and my father's grand strategy games have taught me to master the art of video games. I still indulge in strategic games to this day, and chess is always a favourite. And let's not forget about music! My appreciation for classical music has led me down the path of the piano. With diligent practice, I've learned to play any song that tickles my fancy with ease. So, come on, let's embark on an adventure of a lifetime! 4th Year Mathematical Physics University Student A-Levels: - Mathematics (Edexcel) - A* - Physics (AQA) - A* - Chemistry (AQA) - A GCSEs: Mathematics, Computer Science, Physics, Biology, Chemistry, History, Geography, Business Studies, English Language, English Literature, French, Art All qualifications have been completed in the United Kingdom

I am a Dedicated Teacher with a 6 year plus track record of successfully encouraging and leading pupils. Highly organised, motivational teacher with an exceptional behaviour management skill set. Expert in providing constructive feedback to maintain pupils’ passion for learning. I pride myself on my ability to help students attain the grades they want – even on topics they don’t especially like! Whether it is Language or Literature, I’ve managed to produce amazing results, even after only a few weeks of tutoring. . I have a proven ability to engage and motivate young learners from a diversity of backgrounds, age groups and abilities and remain passionately committed to raising student outcomes. I am very flexible with my teaching style and will go above and beyond for the academic development of each student. I am well versed with their mark scheme and awarding criteria. I provide a world class experience of learning, that suits the needs of each individual learner. My lessons are fun, dynamic, engaging, challenging and full packed with excellent learning resources and activities that help the student achieve and success at obtain great results, My teaching style is a unique blend of vibrancy and professionalism. I've always believed that both teaching and learning should be fun and this is the ethos I adhere to in every lesson. I have a proven track record of significantly improving students' grades and I believe this is because my students genuinely enjoy being in my classes. Once the topic is consolidated, the second part of the session consists of past paper question practise. We work together through topical exam questions to prepare the student for the layout and standard of question they will receive in their exam. In my opinion, question practise is vital for success in english exams and is a key form of revision. If a student can confidently work through past paper questions on the topic covered, we can both feel confident they will succeed in their exams BA degree in Relgiious studies and education studies.

I spent ten years living in Athens, Greece where I worked as a private tutor: teaching TEFL to a wide variety of people - from complete beginners to students wishing to take Cambridge Proficiency exams in order to access UK universities. I have a BA Hons degree in Modern Languages: English/French with a module in Classical Greek Language and Literature. I believe in stress-free lessons , and learning in a relaxed setting.

I’ve had many years of experience volunteering with schools helping students excel in subjects that they find difficult. I’ve always had a passion for science leading me to have a career in microbiology so I know tutoring biology would be a strong suit. Hopefully, I can encourage more students, especially young women to pursue a future in STEM. I loved maths back in school and I do find myself still doing random mathematical questions as I love the subject. I was my favourite back in school. My teacher made English enjoyable and allowed me to have creative responsibilities, making me want to pass that on to the next generation. Apart from my educational background, I enjoy art, allowing me to be more creative and express myself in a different light. But apart from my academics, Im very creative and enjoy doing lots of artistic hobbies such as painting and drawing. My most remarkable talent is drawing landscapes. I also am a big movie buff so hopefully, I can if I have that in common with a student I use that to tailor lessons for them.

My 12 year old daughter needed extra support in English and Maths so a friend recommended us to GoStudent. My daughter had listened into one of my friends child's sessions with Isra and following her own trial session she wanted to get started straight away. We have 2 sessions booked a week with Isra for Maths and Daisy for English. My daughter loves her sessions and finds the way things are explained to her much easier to understand outside of the classroom environment
