Anna Mai D.

Hello! My name is Anna Mai, and I am a passionate and dedicated tutor currently studying to become an Early Years Teacher. I have extensive experience working with children and young people in educational settings, and I am committed to helping every student build confidence, develop their skills, and achieve their full potential. Alongside my studies, I work in a Montessori setting and part-time in afterschool care, where I support children's learning, social development, and overall wellbeing. These roles have given me valuable experience in adapting lessons and activities to suit different learning styles and abilities. I understand that every child learns differently, and I enjoy finding creative and engaging ways to make learning enjoyable and accessible. I also spent three years teaching and studying abroad, which broadened my understanding of education and allowed me to work with students from diverse backgrounds. This experience strengthened my communication skills, adaptability, and ability to build positive relationships with learners and their families. As a tutor, I strive to create a supportive, encouraging, and patient learning environment where students feel comfortable asking questions and challenging themselves. Whether a student needs help building foundational skills, improving academic performance, or gaining confidence in a particular subject, I am dedicated to providing personalised support that meets their individual needs. I am kind, caring, reliable, and enthusiastic about education. My goal is not only to help students succeed academically but also to foster a love of learning that will benefit them throughout their lives. I look forward to supporting students on their educational journey and helping them reach their goals. I am currently studying Early Years and Childhood Studies at University College Cork (UCC), where I am developing a strong understanding of child development, early childhood education, inclusive practice, and effective teaching methodologies. My studies have provided me with both theoretical knowledge and practical skills that enable me to support children's learning and development in a meaningful and engaging way. In addition to my current studies, I spent three years studying abroad in the ITEPS International Teacher Education for Primary Schools programme. This international teacher education programme gave me valuable experience in primary education, exposing me to a range of teaching approaches, educational systems, and multicultural learning environments. Studying and teaching alongside people from diverse backgrounds strengthened my communication, adaptability, and intercultural skills while deepening my passion for education. Alongside my academic background, I have gained extensive practical experience working with children. I currently work in a Montessori setting, where I support children's learning through child-centred, hands-on activities that encourage independence, creativity, and confidence. I also work part-time in afterschool care, assisting children with homework, organising educational and recreational activities, and supporting their social and emotional development. These experiences have allowed me to work with children of different ages, abilities, and learning styles, helping me develop strong skills in behaviour support, lesson planning, communication, and student engagement. I am passionate about helping children achieve their full potential and creating a positive, supportive learning environment where they feel confident to learn, grow, and succeed. My combination of university study, international teacher education experience, and hands-on work with children has equipped me with the knowledge, skills, and enthusiasm needed to support students on their educational journey.

Hi! My name is Sadia, I’m a dedicated and knowledgeable tutor with a strong academic background and a genuine passion for helping students succeed. I hold IGCSE qualifications in English Language, English Literature, and Maths, as well as GCSE Psychology. I have also achieved both Level 2 and Level 3 qualifications in Supporting Teaching and Learning, giving me a solid understanding of how students learn and how to support them effectively. I am currently further developing my knowledge by studying a Science, Technology and Maths course with The Open University. Alongside tutoring, I work as an exam invigilator, which gives me valuable insight into exam conditions, expectations, and common challenges students face. This allows me to better prepare students not just for the content, but for the exam experience itself. I also have extensive experience working with students with Special Educational Needs, including autism and ADHD, across both primary and secondary education. I have successfully supported many students through their GCSEs, using a patient, adaptable, and understanding approach tailored to each individual. My tutoring style is structured, supportive, and personalised. I don’t just help with homework — I focus on building confidence, strengthening understanding, and developing long-term learning skills. I break down challenging topics into clear, manageable steps and adapt my teaching methods to suit each student’s needs. With both academic knowledge and hands-on teaching experience, I understand not only what to teach, but how to teach it in a way that truly makes sense. I create a calm, encouraging environment where students feel comfortable asking questions and learning at their own pace. My goal is to help every student feel more confident, capable, and fully prepared — whether for exams or ongoing success in their education. If you’re looking for a patient, experienced, and committed tutor who genuinely cares about progress and results, I’d love to support your learning journey. My academic background reflects both strong subject knowledge and a clear commitment to education. I have achieved IGCSE qualifications in English Language, English Literature, and Mathematics, alongside GCSE Psychology. To further develop my understanding of how students learn, I have completed both Level 2 and Level 3 qualifications in Supporting Teaching and Learning. I am currently continuing my academic journey with The Open University, studying a Science, Technology and Maths course, allowing me to expand my knowledge across key subject areas while staying up to date with modern learning approaches. In addition, my role as an exam invigilator provides me with valuable insight into exam structures, expectations, and the skills students need to succeed under pressure.

Surabhi R.

Hi! I’m Surabhi - I love helping students not just understand their subjects, but actually enjoy learning. I focus on building confidence, finding the right approach for each person, and making lessons engaging and interactive. I’m patient, approachable, and always happy to answer questions, no matter how small or silly they may sound :) Outside of tutoring, I enjoy reading, art and dance! All of which helps me bring a bit of creativity into our sessions. Over the course of my education, I have developed strong knowledge in Economics but even more in English Literature - a subject I am highly passionate about, alongside effective study strategies that I now enjoy sharing with others. I have experience supporting peers through informal tutoring and study groups, helping them build confidence.
