I graduated with a First in BSc Medical Sciences Firstly, we will work out the student's weak topics using a past paper. Then, we will focus on those topics. I am good at explaining concepts in an easy-to-understand way. I use homework videos and questions to reinforce the student's knowledge. I also use end of topic tests and past papers. We will set time-specific goals, so the student has already achieved their target grade by the time their exam comes around. I know exactly what the examiners are looking for in your answers, so I will coach you on how to gain all the marks for each type of question. By the time we have spent a few months together, your understanding will have improved greatly. Last year, 3 out of 3 students met their target grades : 5 (foundation), 7, and A* (Welsh GCSE) Subjects I teach: Maths: Year 7 - 11 Chemistry: Year 7 - 11 Biology: Year 7 - 11 Exam boards: AQA OCR Edexcel (not iGCSE) GCSE - 9A* A including Maths, Chemistry, Biology, Physics A Levels - A* Biology, A Maths, A Chemistry AS Level - A Physics BSc Medical Science (First) Duke of Edinburgh award Young Leaders in Service Award (education, volunteering with elderly) Basic Life Support

I start my teacher training in September; however, I have been tutoring for almost 5 years now. I pride myself on being approachable and friendly towards my students.

I have seen immense success in my students in the past, with most advancing beyond their initial goals, come exam season. When not tutoring, I enjoy travelling, cooking, reading and trying new things! I even spent a summer abroad working as a camp counsellor in America.

I'm a qualified teacher with a First Class degree in Business Economics and a Masters in Management. With over 1,100 online tutoring sessions under my belt, I've helped countless students achieve their academic goals. My adaptable approach and real-world experience ensure that you get the most out of every lesson. My experience working in UK secondary schools and as an examiner gives me a unique understanding of the curriculum and assessment process. I tailor my lessons to each student's individual needs, using real-world examples to make learning engaging and effective. As a former secondary school teacher, I understand the unique challenges students face. My passion for helping others succeed drives me to provide personalised support and tailored learning strategies. With a strong track record of student success, I'm committed to helping you reach your full potential. My usual tutoring hours are Monday to Thursday 10am - 6:30pm and occasional Saturday mornings (10am to 12 noon). Unfortunately I cannot hold sessions outside of these hours due to other work commitments. Exam Boards: Business Studies: AQA, Edexcel, Eduquas, WJEC. Economics: AQA, OCR, Edexcel, Eduquas, WJEC. Language: English (Mother Tongue) My name is Megan and I specialise in Business Studies and Economics tutoring. I completed my A Levels in 2014 in Business Studies, Economics and Accounting before going on to complete a Business Economics degree, I was awarded a First Class Degree with Honours. I completed my Masters Degree in Management and following this I trained to be a teacher, teaching Business Studies and Economics to students aged 14-18 in state secondary schools before making the move to tutoring. I use a variety of methods when delivering lessons to students, such as the use of verbal questioning, written questions, modelling answers and knowledge checks. This helps students to develop their knowledge and put this knowledge into practice. I also carry out a detailed analysis of students needs and requirements in the trial session or first session to give me a good understanding of where the focus needs to be. I am also an examiner and this has given me a great insight into how exams are marked and a good understanding of what is required from students.

Hi there! I am an experienced and empathetic English Literature and Language tutor with over 5 years of experience and many success stories under my belt. I have experience teaching English Literature and English Language for the following levels and exam boards: A-Level— AQA, OCR, WJEC Eduqas; GCSE— AQA, OCR, WJEC Eduqas; Key Stage 3, as well as the 11+ exams. I'm also very interested in tutoring students at the undergraduate level. I only (fluently) speak English, and I do not have any SEN tutoring experience. My approach to tutoring is student centric, with a focus on developing skills via scaffolding. I encourage participation and employ multimedia learning tools when and where appropriate. Empathy and support are the cornerstones of a good classroom experience, so I am highly patient with all of my students and try to structure my tutoring to build on their schoolwork and complement their existing learning. My proudest moments are when something has 'clicked' for one of my students that they have previously struggled with in class! In my spare time, I (predictably) enjoy reading, walking and listening to podcasts, but I'm also an enthusiastic home cook, amateur forager and volunteer at a local art gallery. I have something of a tech-y side also, and I've been known to tinker with computers and play videogames (usually on the artsier side)! In 2021, I graduated from the English Master's programme at the University of Liverpool with a strong Distinction and a highly commended dissertation. I had also previously completed a BA at UoL, and received As and A*s in my English Literature A-Level and GCSEs. My Master's degree specialised in contemporary and modern literature, but I love Victorian, Renaissance and classic lit too! I'm a bit of a nerd for literary theory and poetry in particular (my MA dissertation even drew on my experience of teaching poetry to young people).

I am a student currently at the University of Nottingham, studying geography and business. I came from a grammar school in Tonbridge called the Judd School. I am very into my sport, playing netball as well as being a swimmer, so I understand tackling your academics while juggling the activities you want to do is hard. However I have much experience in teaching as I have been a swimming teacher for many years now, so hope I can help make the academic side of things a lot easier. - I took the 11+ as well as taking the Sevenoaks school entrance exam, passing both. -GCSE; geography, triple science (biology, physics, chemistry), art, maths, English, Physical Education and French at the Tonbridge Girls Grammar School -A-level; biology, geography and art at The Judd School

GCSE: Maths, Chemistry, Physics, English A-level: Maths, Chemistry Exam Board experience: AQA/Edexcel/OCR/entrance exams Experience with: KS3/KS4 Preferred student age group: GCSE Level (14-16) About me: I know first-hand how important academic support is when going through GCSEs and A-levels - I benefited from resources outside of my school. Now that I'm finishing my degree, I want to provide that support to students who need additional help in order to get through their exams, especially in turbulent conditions. I hope to make learning fun and exciting, and make studying less of a chore, and more of an adventure! I'm more than happy to provide support on applications for further study and/or employment. There's a lot of confusing information out there, so quickly, it's nice to have a friendly face to ask for advice :) Chemistry BSc at the University of Birmingham. Dissertation evaluating clinical research for cancer therapy drugs currently undergoing development. Able to help GCSE/A-Level students with career/interview support including applications, CVs, and general advice. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- OCR/Edexcel/AQA A-levels and GCSE
