Hello! I'm Jacob, and I have a passion for making complex subjects like Maths, Chemistry, and Physics both understandable and enjoyable. In the past 6 months, I've developed a strong background in private tutoring, specifically in Maths, Physics, and Chemistry for students up to A-level. This experience has not only sharpened my teaching skills but also deepened my appreciation for these subjects. Additionally, at university, I guided small groups of undergraduate students through tutorial sessions, focusing on preparing them for their exams. These sessions were designed to bridge the gap between theory and the practical application of knowledge, particularly in tackling problem questions. My teaching style is interactive and focused on practical application. I emphasise guided practice to lay a solid foundation, followed by independent practice to build confidence and self-reliance in learning. Whether you need support in specific areas or a comprehensive strategy for exam preparation, I'm here to offer personalised assistance. I also believe in the value of grading and constructive feedback, helping students understand their progress and areas for growth. I aim to create a supportive learning environment that challenges students while encouraging them to explore and ask questions. If you're seeking a tutor committed to your academic and personal development, I'd be glad to help! My academic journey includes achieving top grades (A*) in Maths, Chemistry, Physics, and Further Maths at A-level, complemented by a Master of Engineering (MEng) in Chemical Engineering from Imperial College London. Recently, I've developed a keen interest in Computer Science and Machine Learning. In fact, my master's project was all about diving into Machine Learning, which has been an exciting new chapter in my studies.

As a Diagnostic Radiographer with a first-class honours degree in my Bachelor of Science, I understand the importance of tailoring my teaching methods to suit the needs of students with learning difficulties such as dyslexia and ADHD. I am patient, empathetic, and committed to creating a supportive and inclusive learning environment that fosters growth and development for all students. I am experienced in working with students with learning difficulties and am skilled at identifying their strengths and weaknesses, developing strategies to overcome challenges, and providing the necessary support and guidance to help them achieve their full potential. I believe that every student has the right to access education that meets their individual needs, and I am committed to ensuring that all of my students receive the support and resources they need to succeed With extensive experience in tutoring for SATS, GCSE, A-Level, and entrance exams such as 7+, 11+, and 13+, I have a deep understanding of the skills and knowledge required for success in these exams. I am skilled at identifying areas of weakness and developing strategies to overcome them, and I work closely with students and their families to create a personalised plan for success. Whether students need help with specific subjects or are looking for more general support and guidance, I am here to help. My goal as a tutor is to empower students to reach their full potential, both academically and personally. I am excited to work with students of all ages and backgrounds, and I am committed to providing the highest quality of education and support possible.

My name is Dmitri Yendrzheyevskiy. Nice to meet you :) I am an upcoming third-year student studying economics with German. I studied French, German, Russian and English at A level. I love learning languages, speaking both Russian and English natively. Having grown up speaking Russian at home, I have always felt passionate for learning and improving languages; for example, I'm currently learning Chinese and am considering learning Italian and Japanese in the future :D Generally, my sessions depend on whom I am working with. For beginners of French and German, I begin by following the GCSE AQA textbook, where I help teach the skills necessary to learn more independently. The textbook begins with more general stuff like basic grammar, and then branches off into specific topics, such as talking about yourself. I encourage the student to talk as much German and French as possible, helping them to develop a native accent. To maintain and strengthen my languages, I personally dedicate time every day to honing my language skills through listening to films and books of the respective language. In Maths, if I am teaching someone who is a beginner, I will first try to get to know what works for the student, and then using games to encourage younger learners to learn specific parts of maths. For GCSE students, I will follow the specification, skipping over the parts which the student knows well. To determine their general knowledge, I will start by giving a basic test of each successive section, and spend more time on the sections the student does more poorly in. For GCSE and A level students for all of my subjects, I will work with the student in establishing areas of weakness in their GCSEs, and understand their general level and which level they are working at. I will show what examiners want, and how exactly to reach the higher bands to get the highest marks. I am always updating myself on the latest news from AQA to always be familiar with the exact exam structure. I am familiar with most of the A level texts for both French and German, and I am reading through the English A level and GCSE texts. For Russian, I will work through a textbook with the student. I will constantly provide support with pronunciation and determine based on their goals what they want to do; whether they want to learn how to read and write cursive, or simply read and send messages in text form (as the written and typed language looks different). I am very familiar with both GCSE and A level Russian, and know the texts and films. I set homework every week, and check back on it on the next lesson. Depending on the time of month, I am happy to let the student decide which areas they are weakest in, and then work with them on those areas, be those listening, or writing, or a specific part of GCSE that they don't understand. I am proactive in providing the best experience for all of my students, and I am passionate about the work that I do. I have tutored for over a year and the experience has benefitted me in many ways. I'd like to provide a positive experience for all of my students regardless of age. I am patient and understanding and will take the time to help all of my students. Thank you for taking the time to read my profile. I hope I will meet you soon :) I studied at QE boys, a Grammar school which ranks as no1 in UK grammar schools. I received excellent grades for all of my subjects, and now currently attend the University of Birmingham, a UK Russell group university with high requirements.

Hi, I am Mara! I have recently graduated from the University of Exeter where I studied Biological Sciences. Outside of my education, I am passionate about, sports, health and fitness and travelling. I consider myself very laid back and friendly, and prefer to adopt a relaxed and low pressure teaching approach when tutoring. I really look forward to getting to know you and hope I can be a part of your journey to reach your goals :) I have just graduated from the University of Exeter with a first-class degree in Biological Sciences. I have always been scientifically inclined - enjoying the science subjects at GCSE and A-level but I am well aware that the quantity of content can be quite overwhelming! I consider myself a very laid back, friendly and patient person and hope that I can apply the teaching approaches that worked best for me to help you get to grips with the content and achieve the grade you want!
