Hello! My name is Uchenna, and I am a medical graduate with a strong passion for education. I specialize in tutoring Primary Maths, GCSE English, Biology, and Religious Studies, as well as A-Level Biology and Psychology. With years of experience, I have developed effective teaching strategies that cater to a wide range of learning styles. My academic background has given me a deep appreciation for Biology, and I strive to equip students with the knowledge and critical thinking skills needed to tackle the subject’s complexities. I have a longstanding love for English Literature and Language and enjoy helping students develop strong analytical and communication skills. My enthusiasm for Psychology and Religious Studies stems from my fascination with human behavior, thoughts, and emotions—an interest I continue to explore as an aspiring psychiatrist and active member of mental health initiatives. Beyond academics, I am a Netball coach, helping young athletes refine their skills while fostering teamwork and confidence. I am also experienced in working with students with autism, ADHD, and dyslexia, ensuring that my lessons are engaging, accessible, and tailored to individual needs. I take pride in building strong rapport with my students, boosting their confidence, and helping them achieve their academic goals. I look forward to supporting you on your learning journey! As a tutor, I aim to augment classroom learning. Teaching students in ways that are efficient and effective but enjoyable. It is important to identify individual learning styles and adapt my teaching for each student. I am a medical graduate and as such have developed the relevant skills for long term recall.

A-Level: English, French, Italian, Montenegrian, Serbian, Croatian, Bosnian language Uni-Level: English, Montenegrian, Serbian, Croatian and Bosnian language, Law Exam board exp: IELTS test Experience with: The schooling system in England and Wales Languages: English, Italian, French, Montenegrian, Serbian, Bosnian Croatian Preferred student age group: Any About me: Hi everyone :) My name is Nikola and I am a lawyer in London. My past experience is narrowly related to the law and tutoring, while my past, present and future free time experience is exclusively reserved for sports, travelling and of course, my best friend Brik (he is one amazing labrador with a strong human personality). Even though I am a lawyer, my true passion was and still is to teach and do sports (literally any sports, however basketball and football do have an advantage among others). I have been playing basketball for the last 20 years now, and yes, that is my first true love, while my second passion was and still is to teach people and pass the knowledge I have. As I am from the Mediterranean coast, after all, my passion for food cannot pass undetected. I am a food lover, I enjoy cooking, trying out new specialities, and creating something on my own. Furthermore, I do love long walks, nature and guess what, movies. My favourite movie is Night in a Museum, as it has everything I like, history, comedy and yes, museums. Lastly, I am quite a sociable person and I love meeting new people with a different story on daily basis. Hope to see you soon in class :) My academic experience is linked with the University of Montenegro, where I have gained an undergraduate and postgraduate diploma in law and Swansea University where I have obtained an LLM certificate for International Commercial and Maritime Law. During my university experience at Swansea University, I have worked as an International Student Ambassador where my main duty was to help foreign students regarding the language barrier and application process. My teaching method is adapted to beginners up to advanced students. I already taught students from all around the world, with different levels. I try to create a relaxing atmosphere where students would not be stressed about exams while ensuring to obtain the best grade. I believe that every student is unique and has their own needs. Therefore my method is tailored to each student to reach their full potential in the language they want to learn. My goal is for you to be happy about your communication skills, whether it is for travelling, school or business. Indeed, if you are looking to get better at speaking at work, my experience will definitely help you. In the past, I helped the businessman and lawyers to improve their speaking skills (presentation, meetings, etc). I teach the English language and literature for beginners, students or professionals. Furthermore, I am doing preparation for the IELTS test. I also teach French language A1, A2 level. Furthermore, as a native speaker, I can teach you Montenegrin, Serbian, Croatian or Bosnian language. Last but not least, as an experienced lawyer, I do offer a possibility to tutor law students from a civil or common law background. I can't wait to see you soon in class.

Hi there, My name is Dan and I have taught over 1000 sessions for Gostudent with great parental feedback. I am able to give students tasks that get them thinking and responding as if there were in class or an exam without getting them to realise that they are doing this. This means they are more engaged and students, who maybe are struggling, see that they can succeed. I am also able to engage with parents and students at the same, making it clear to Parents what has been achieved. I primarily work with GCSE and A-Level Students, but do also have experience with KS3. I have been studying my PhD at the University of Liverpool, and prior to that I did my MA and BA at University of Newcastle. I studied A-Levels at Richard Huish College in Somerset. I have always been trying to take on new tasks and new qualifications, which at the moment has taken the form of studying German, French, Latin and Ancient Greek.

How online English tuition can benefit you

English tutoring to improve grades and self-confidence

Studying English at school includes technical aspects of the language such as grammar and vocabulary, and English literature focuses on text analysis and creative writing.

English-related skills such as reading and writing are vital throughout school, regardless of the subject matter. Learning how to communicate your thoughts clearly boosts self-confidence, improves vocabulary and leads to better exam results.

GoStudent English tutors offer one-to-one lessons tailored to your child’s needs, helping them understand where their weaknesses are in their written work and working with them to improve their writing style.

The advantages of studying English

English is an essential subject in the national curriculum. All students are required to pass English exams at primary school and English makes up one of the three core GCSE subjects in secondary school.

Studying for an English and Literature A-level or an undergraduate or master's degree can be hugely rewarding. Not only will you learn a great deal about the language, you will also be introduced to radically different ways of understanding and explaining the world.

An English degree can open the door to a wide range of career opportunities in fields such as teaching, editing, journalism and law. There is also a growing market for teaching English as a second language either at home or overseas, where the demand might be higher.

English tuition at primary school

English tuition at primary school is an excellent way to prepare for the future. Studying reading and writing helps with English language skills in general, and learning about different authors and their works may very well ignite a passion for reading in your child, laying the foundation for study at a higher level.

English exam preparation and English revision classes

GCSE exams are the qualifications students take at the age of 16. GCSE English provides a solid foundation for studying humanities courses at a higher level, and skills taught include writing essays, reading comprehension and text analysis.

If your child choose to continue to study English Language and Literature at A-level, it's extremely important for them to achieve a solid GCSE foundation.

English tutors can provide:

  • Exam technique training
  • Essay writing practice
  • Speaking, listening and vocabulary development

Working with an English tutor on a one-to-one basis boosts confidence and passion for the subject, too.

Finding a private English tutor online

During your free trial lesson with GoStudent, your English tutor will gain an understanding of your child’s strengths and weaknesses and create an individual learning plan that’s uniquely tailored to them.

After the lesson, you can decide which membership model will best meet your child’s needs. The lessons will continue via our practical online platform using video chat and practical digital tools.

Answering student's questions about online English lessons

How much does private English tuition cost?

Prices for private English tuition can be as low as £21.99. The cost of each individual lesson will depend on how many lessons your child takes per week and how long they would like tuition for. Book a free trial session to see how affordable private English tutoring can be with GoStudent.

As well as English, does GoStudent offer private tuition in other subjects?

GoStudent can help give your child support with private English tuition as well as offering tuition for 40+ subjects. Select from a range of subjects including Chemistry, Physics, Spanish. Your child isn't tied into one subject with GoStudent. Maybe your child needs support with English now but as their needs change we can also offer tuition across different subjects.

What are the benefits of private English tutoring for your child?

There are many reasons why parents decide to hire a private English tutor. Some parents fear that they don’t have the knowledge to help their children with their English homework or exam preparation. Others might not have the time to sit with children and work through homework. Our English tutors can take away this stress by helping your child consolidate what they have been learning in school, working through their homework with them and building their confidence ahead of their exams. You can rest easy knowing that our tutors are experts in English and have the knowledge and teaching abilities to not only spark your child’s interest in the subject but also foster a lifelong love of learning. Discover how your child can take advantage of these benefits by booking a free trial lesson.

Can my child take private English tuition online?

With GoStudent your child can get private tuition online from one of our English tutors. Online tuition is a great option for you and your child, meaning you don't have to take your child to a class or cover the cost of a tutor to come to your home. Why not see how private tuition can work for you and your child by booking a free trial lesson.
