Hello. I'm Debs, nice to meet you. I tutor a range of subjects, all based on experience of teaching within school, college and less tradiitional settings. I love tutoring one to one as that is the best way to give the student exactly what they need. I teach Sociology, Business and English at GCSE and A level and I have experience of AQA and Edexcel exam boards. I have also taught Btec Business level 1-3 In 2023 I completed a Master's degree in Philosophy as I love learning new things just as much as I love to teach. I make learning fun wherever possible and tailor every lesson to the student's needs. I use a variety of methods so you won't get bored and I am always happy to answer questions and re-explain things. There's no such thing as a silly question! I appreciate people who try, no matter what their ability is, and i love seeing people achieve things that they never dreamed they could. Let me help you do that. Outside of work I enjoy reading, working on my allotment and making art and fabric items which I sometimes sell at craft fairs.

I am currently pursuing a degree in Computer Science, specialising in artificial intelligence, at the esteemed King's College London. With a strong academic foundation, I have discovered a true passion for teaching and find immense fulfilment in helping fellow students excel, particularly in subjects like Maths and Physics, which I thoroughly enjoy. I also have over 1000 hours of online tutoring experience and very high success rate. Throughout my educational journey, I have successfully completed A-levels in Maths, Further Maths, Physics, and Economics. These challenging subjects have equipped me with a deep understanding of the curriculum and allowed me to personally relate to the trials and tribulations students often face. By drawing upon my own experiences and employing effective communication techniques, I strive to guide and empower students to overcome obstacles and achieve their full potential. Beyond the realm of academia, I lead a well-rounded life filled with diverse interests and hobbies. When I'm not engrossed in my studies or teaching, you can often find me immersed in the captivating world of video games. The interactive nature of gaming not only provides an enjoyable escape but also enhances problem-solving skills and fosters a sense of teamwork. Moreover, I have a strong affinity for both indoor and outdoor sports. Engaging in physical activities not only promotes a healthy lifestyle but also teaches valuable lessons in discipline, perseverance, and teamwork. In my leisure time, I find solace and creative expression through playing musical instruments. The joy of producing harmonious melodies serves as a respite from the demands of daily life and allows me to explore my artistic side. Additionally, I am an ardent lover of movies and enjoy the collective experience of watching films with friends. Whether it's delving into thought-provoking narratives or simply indulging in lighthearted entertainment, the magic of cinema never fails to captivate me. Overall, I approach life with an optimistic and adventurous spirit, eagerly embracing the challenges and opportunities that come my way. With a blend of academic pursuit, teaching enthusiasm, recreational interests, and a vibrant social life, I am poised to make a positive impact in both my academic journey and the world around me.

I am currently a psychology undergraduate, aspiring to become a psychology teacher! My aspiration to become a teacher arises from a deep commitment to helping others realise their potential through learning. Throughout my studies, I have consistently taken satisfaction in supporting my peers to grasp challenging concepts, particularly in research. These experiences revealed how rewarding it is to guide others towards understanding and confidence. Teaching offers an ideal opportunity to combine my enthusiasm for psychology with my desire to make a meaningful contribution to young people’s education. In my spare time I like to read books, mostly romance and sometimes play games on my console. My current degree in psychology has given me a strong scientific foundation and a skill set highly relevant to teaching psychology. The subject itself is rooted in the scientific method, forming hypotheses, designing experiments, collecting data, and analysing results, all of which are central to understanding and teaching psychology effectively. Through my degree, I have developed strong analytical thinking, problem-solving, and communication skills, as well as the ability to interpret data and explain complex theories clearly. Working on research projects such as mind-wandering and facial recognition has deepened my appreciation of how psychological principles can be applied in real-world contexts. These experiences are directly transferable to teaching psychology, where curiosity, critical thinking, and clarity are key to engaging students and helping them succeed.

I have availability for students as per my calendar availability. I also work with students on a weekly basis at a minimum to ensure momentum and consistency for the student. My latest start time for lessons is 6pm and I start lessons on the hour to maximise my availability for students. I have been an educator and trainer for over 17 years and love nothing more than seeing students achieve their goals. I am a scuba diving instructor as my main role and work all over the world. I enjoy watching Netflix and love diving even when I am not in work. I have been lucky to see a lot of the world through all my roles during my career. I tutor 11+, English up to the end of year 9 only and also tutor mathematics and science up to GCSE. I have knowledge of all UK countries curriculum and also the German curriculum. I myself completed the 11+ equivalent when younger and understand the commitment and learning that is needed to succeed. My favourite subjects in school were maths, science and physical education. I am also experienced in working with children with additional learning needs.
