Hi, I’m Maite! I’m a native German speaker and teach German at all levels — Primary, GCSE, and A-Level. Besides German and English, I also speak French and Spanish. I hold a BA in Cultural Studies with a minor in Educational Science, which deepened my understanding of cross-cultural learning, communication, and how to make complex ideas accessible. During my time at university, I spent over three years tutoring children of different ages, working in a programme led by the German federal government to support children from migrant and refugee backgrounds in their school learning. I am now excited to work with adults as well. When I think back to my own school years, the teachers who inspired me most were those whose honest passion made even my least favourite subjects enjoyable. That’s the atmosphere I aim to create in my lessons: engaging, light, and enjoyable. Outside tutoring, I teach meditation and mindfulness and support a charity creatively, which helps me bring patience, flexibility, and creativity into my teaching. I tailor lessons to each student — whether you need grammar support, speaking practice, exam preparation, or a personalised lesson to build confidence at your own pace, or simply want to learn German out of interest and enjoyment. I hold a BA in Cultural Studies and Educational Science, which I completed at Leuphana University in Lüneburg, Germany. I specialised in cultural theory and visual culture and spent an Erasmus semester at Université Bordeaux Montaigne in France. In addition, I hold a Yoga Alliance–approved 200-hour Yoga Teacher Certificate, complemented by an additional 50 hours of training in meditation.

I’m a first-year medical student at UCL, and I studied Biology, Chemistry and Maths at A-level (plus an EPQ), achieving 4 A*s, as well as all A*s at GCSE. I know how challenging these subjects can feel, so I aim to make things clearer and less overwhelming. In my lessons, I focus on helping students actually understand the content rather than just memorising it. I like to break topics down into simple steps and explain things in a way that makes sense for you. I also help with exam technique, so you know how to use what you’ve learned to get the best grades. I completed my secondary education at Colchester County High School for Girls (CCHSG), a selective grammar school, where I studied from Year 7 through to Year 13. During this time, I achieved all A*s at GCSE and went on to take A-levels in Biology, Chemistry and Mathematics, alongside an EPQ, achieving 4 A*s. This gave me a strong academic foundation, particularly in the sciences and maths. I am currently a first-year medical student at University College London, where I continue to build on my knowledge of Biology and Chemistry in much greater depth, as well as applying problem-solving and analytical skills developed through Maths. For tutoring, I specialise in GCSE Biology, Chemistry and Maths. Having gone through these exams myself, I understand both the content and the exam techniques needed to achieve top grades, and I’m familiar with common areas students struggle with.

Hello, I’m Sarah, a medical student who enjoys helping others learn in a clear, simple way. I keep tutoring relaxed and focused on real understanding rather than memorizing. My goal is to help you feel confident and truly understand the material so sessions stay supportive, practical, and stress free fun. I achieved 6 A* at IGCSE in Maths, Chemistry, Biology, English, Physics and Religious Studies. I then completed A Levels in Maths, Chemistry and Biology with 3 A grades. This strong academic background allows me to teach students with clarity, confidence and proven subject expertise.
