Carla C.

Final year Mathematics undergrad student at the University of Dundee, fluent in German, Croatian and of course English. I love the outdoors, as I regularly go out hiking, running, cycling and whitewater kayaking. I still stick to the student lifestyle of having a healthy balance of work/study related things, social life and fitness thus making the most of my time when I have it!

Subjects and levels: Lower level - Maths, 11+. GCSEs - Maths Exam board experience: Edexcel, AQA, 11+ SEND experience: ADHD, Dyslexia, Dyscalculia I am passionate about education having worked fulltime as a tutor for over two years and in various education roles for 5 years including student outreach for a UK university supporting the learning and future education progression of students with lower predicted outcomes due to a wide range of social and personal circumstances. I have tutored over 100 students, with my GCSE maths students overachieving thier predicted grades by 1.8 on average. I currently tutor 20+ students on GoStudent and have new spaces available with my previous cohort of Yr 11s having completed their exams. I believe learning can be an enjoyable experience for all students, given the right space and support to blossom in their own time. GCSEs - A* Maths, Physics, Chemistry, Biology, Geography, A Spanish, History, Business, English Language B English Literature Bachelor of Science (Hons) Psychology 1st Class Postgraduate Certificate - Forensic Psychology Merit

I have been a tutor since early 2020, when I started this career choice alongside working in the NHS as a mature student nurse at the University of Sheffield. I later went on to make this my full-time career, and in this time have worked with over 300 students, both long term and short term, of all different ages. I have worked both through agencies, and privately, with most of my students being referred through word of mouth. I work primarily with children in Year 5 and 6 in maths, and also children who are preparing for their Grammar School 11+ exam. However, I cover maths, English and science up to Year 8 level, 11+ exam preparation, English as a second language (for adults and children), and home schooling for primary school children. I am a member of MENSA, and I have achieved this because I work very routinely and am able to break things down into step-by-step techniques. These techniques are passed on through my tutoring, especially in maths, and I have had great feedback and results from this. I am very passionate about my career, as I love to educate others, and I believe it is so important to be a good role model and inspiration to young people, to drive them towards wanting to achieving their goals in life. My background is in healthcare, where I studied at the University of Sheffield (Adult Nursing BMedSci). I have also studied Diagnostic Radiography (BSc) at Sheffield Hallam University. I have an Access to Higher Education certificate in Health Sciences where I gained a qualification which included A-Level standard Biology, Chemistry and Maths, and AS-Level Physics.

Lower Level: French GCSE: French A-Level (AI) : French Higher Level: French Languages: English and French Preferred Student Age Group: (Any/Primary/GSCE/Leaving Certificate/A-Level) I was born in Paris and raised in a bilingual household with no shortage of music. My father was a singer-songwriter, my mum plays the violin and I started singing before I could walk. After earning a diploma in Performing Arts in California, I moved to London and lived there for many years before relocating to the beautiful West of Ireland. After moving to London, I started teaching French and English as a Second Language to private students between auditions and performances and completely fell in love with teaching languages. Apart from performing and teaching languages, I really enjoy travelling and have had the chance to visit many countries in Europe and beyond. I have a real passion for the Italian language and love spending time in Florence, one of my favourite cities in the world. Last but not least, I love reading, have an extensive knowledge of French and Irish History, and also adore animals ... cats, dogs, horses... I love them all.
