Izzy L.

Hey! My name is Maria and I am 23 years old. I am currently studying Dietetics at Robert Gordon University in Aberdeen. I have grown up trilingual, speaking Italian, German and Ladin at home with family and friends. Ladin is a very uncommon language, only 40,000 people speak it. Moreover, I speak English fluently and learned Russian for 5 years (B1 level). After finishing high school I went to Australia for 7 months. I worked and travelled along the southern and eastern coasts. I have worked as a teacher for a couple of months a few years ago, with a special focus on children with learning difficulties. I can teach Italian and German at all levels, and Maths and Biology at Lower Level. I don't have a preferred student age group.

GCSE: At GCSE level, I can teach Biology, Chemistry, and Physics. Exam board experience: I have teaching experience in AQA and Edexcel. Preferred student age group: My preferred age group is GCSE students, as I have the most experience teaching students at this level. About me: I am very passionate about science and love to share my passion by tutoring, writing articles for my university science magazine, and being part of many scientific societies. Outside of academia, I love cooking, rock climbing, and horse riding. GCSEs: I completed 9 GCSEs overall, receiving a 9 in Biology, a 9 in Chemistry, a 9 in Physics, and an 8 in Maths. Beyond the STEM subjects, I received a 9 in Theology, an 8 in Drama, an 8 in Spanish, a 7 in English Literature, and a 6 in English Language. A-Levels: In my A-Levels, I received an A* in Biology, an A* in Psychology, and an A in Chemistry. During this time, I also completed a Spanish Diploma at a B1 level. In Year 13, I was selected to be the Chemistry Prefect due to being one of the top Chemistry students in my year group. Undergraduate degree: I am currently a 2nd year Biochemistry student at King's College London and anticipated to receive First after my performance in my 1st year exams and coursework. During this time, I was a PAL leader. This role encompassed leading workshops on exam techniques, study skills, and challenging topics within a Biochemistry degree. Tutoring experience: I have been tutoring for three years, including volunteer tutoring for students who have been unable to attend school. I focus on developing personalised and engaging lessons. It is important to me to help students understand the topics I cover and apply what they have learned in the context of exam questions, thereby enhancing their confidence in exams. The students I am experienced in tutoring are GCSE and A-Level students. I also mentored and assisted students during my Chemistry Prefect and PAL leader tenure, which further enhanced my teaching abilities.

Subjects and level: GCSE: maths and physics, A level: maths and physics, Exam board experience: AQA for GCSE maths and physics but will be fine with other standard exam boards. Edexcel for A level maths, OCR A for A level physics. Languages: English – native SEND experience: no prior experience Preferred student age group: A level About me: I am a student at the University of Warwick studying maths and physics. I have a few years of experience tutoring A level maths and physics and this helps me to identify the requirements of each student and tailor the learning experience to them. In my free time I enjoy doing sports such as football and swimming. Also, I like playing chess and cooking due to the challenge and creativity they involve. I'm passionate about helping students explore the subjects and achieve their academic goals through sharing my knowledge and experience. University: achieved a high first over my first 3 years studying Mathematics and Physics at the University of Warwick. A level: 4 A*s in Maths, Physics, Further Maths and History. GCSE: 12 A*s

My name is Isabel, I am 28 years old, from Switzerland, and work as a recruiter. I have studied French, Philosophy and Politics. In my free time, I like to clean, go for runs and go dancing. My style as a tutor is rather blasé. The most important thing is that we get on and that we know what we want to accomplish together. My last degree was a Master’s in Political and Legal Theory from the University of Warwick. Previous degrees include an undergraduate degree from the University of Zurich in Philosophy and French as well as a diploma in translation studies. I did 2 semesters of law on top of that.
