Julie V.

I have been teaching English online for over three-years now. This has included English as a foreign language and GCSE/ A level English literature and language. I graduated last year with a first-class degree in English literature and Language in Cardiff University and received a scholarship in my second year for being the best performing pupil in my cohort. English teaching has long been a passion of mine and my role has evolved to encompass academic writing support, something that I feel should be taught in school and is sought after by examiners across all exam boards. My students always achieve their goals through hard work, regular tutoring and lots of writing practice! I am currently a part-time Master's student of a TESOL and Education programme in Cardiff and my intention is to lecture this subject in the near future after my PHD. Alongside my own studying, I volunteer at an asylum-seeker charity 4 hours a week teaching adults basic skills such as digital literacy, English communication and life skills. I am also responsible for about 4 young learners who I have taught consistently over the last three-years. Please read some of my lovely pupils' comments about their online tutoring experience with me below: -

GCSE: English, History, Geography, Business, Economics, Government & Politics, Law A-Level: Geography, Economics, Government & Politics, Law, Social Sciences Exam board experience: AQA, Edexcel, OCR Preferred student age group: Any I studied A-Levels in Economics (A), Government and Politics (A) and Geography (A*). I then went on to study for a BA degree at the University of Exeter in International Relations. During my professional career, I undertook two sets of professional qualifications in both UK and US taxation. I am now studying for a Postgraduate Diploma in Law.

Lower Level: Maths GCSE (preferred): Maths, Further Maths Exam Board Experience: Edexcel, AQA Languages: English Preferred student age group: KS3, GCSE About me: Hey! I'm a math student at uni, who would like to become a math teacher. Numbers are something I understand quite well, and I have made it my goal to help as many people understand it as much as me :) Other than working with numbers, I love food! If I'm not watching baking/cooking shows to increase my knowledge on it, I am baking treats myself to try out new skills and perfect the ones I have tried and tested before.

I started tutoring during my first year of university and absolutely loved it! I am a bit older now (and hopefully wiser), currently undergoing training to become a commercial pilot. I graduated from the University of Nottingham (Politics and International Relations) with First Class Honours with the Academic Excellence Award. I know how to write and structure a first-class piece of academic work (and arguably more importantly a bad one!). Just get in touch and I can help with anything you might be struggling with. I am a patient and engaging tutor and always work hard to improve a student’s confidence as well as their underlying knowledge. Exam technique is crucial for securing the top grades and I dedicate a lot of time to making sure my student knows how to answer a question in the correct manner. Outside of tutoring, I love sport and play football, golf and tennis.
