🎓 Graduate of National University of Ireland, Galway 🎓 ✏University Level: BA English Literature & Creative Writing ✏ Leaving Certificate Level: English (H1) ✏ Exam Board Prep & Experience with: Leaving Certificate (Irish schooling system) ✏Experience with Disabilities/Special Needs: ADHD ✏Preferred Student Age Group: 5th & 6th Year Students 🤓 About Me 🤓 But! Studies aren't everything. I also love music (from hip-hop to K-pop, you name it, I'll lyrically analyse it...👀 ), Zumba classes, Netflix and most of all, I love my wolfdog named Blue. I'm a huge mental health advocate too, so helping my students with their confidence in expression is my number one priority at all times. Poetry is my specialty, as I dedicated one full year to it in university, but as an Honours graduate of English, Philosophy & Creative Writing in NUI Galway, it's fair to say I'm pretty passionate about English Literature! After achieving a H1 in my own Leaving Certificate in 2015, I also privately tutored English at Leaving Certificate level (specialising in Essay Writing and Poetry) as well as completed my Teaching English as a Second Language certificate. With English, there is certainly no such thing as 'one-size- fits-all'. I hope to unlock students' individual creativity and confidence with carefully tailored lessons to suit you. I believe in using a facilitating approach where I will provide the tools and aid to allow you to work smarter, not harder, and show all the joys that studying the great English classics and modern poets has to offer-- as well as guide you through the thrilling experience of developing and exploring your own writing abilities! Let's take the LC by storm, go team! 💪✨

~ Welcome to Ms. A. L River's Classes ~ It is a pleasure to have you here on this journey! I cannot wait to meet your sproutlings (and establishing trees), continuing the process of discovering and nurturing their passions with them. I have six years experience of guiding and teaching students of various ages. All lessons are preplanned, with the student's interests and passions intentionally worked into the teaching. TEACHING TOOLS: * Screen sharing facilities, * co-writing, including mind-mapping and more * illustrations * key stage-relevant worksheets, * quizzes / past exam questions (familiar with AQA, OCR, WJEC, Pearsons/Edexcel) * recorded videos * thought provoking, practical application in the world relevant to the student WHO I WORK WITH: Pupils desiring improvement in their subjects (who may not yet know they will enjoy the process!) Particularly: - those who may find typical lessons less engaging of their focus, and enjoy a more interactive, magical style of teaching. - those who desire continuous encouragement, support, and prefer experimentation with various techniques & styles of teaching - those who desire more effort and time to build a trusting connection with their tutor - those who need fun as part of their learning experience (everyone!) I prefer to work with one pupil on a number of subjects rather than one, as subjects can tie-in and feed into one another in explaining the world through a multi-disciplinary lens. My Plan: Building ongoing connection and tailoring my sessions to your child's/ your specific learning style and/or needs. This part is integral to the learning process, and our first session will ensure an in-depth understanding of the student's most aligned learning style. SUBJECTS key stage 1-3 (ages 5-14) All core & foundation subjects as stated on the 'national curriculum in England - Framework document' GSCEs Key stage 3 (ages 14-16) all core subjects + Media + Drama/acting + Art & Design + Geography + History + ICT +R.S / Philosophy Sixth Form AS/A-Levels: *Psychology *English Lit (and English Lang) *History/ Classical Civilisations *Philosophy *Anthropology *Media and/or film studies I look forward to working with you, book a package to start now!

Hello! I'm Maddy, I'm 23 years old currently completing my Master's in Public Health at Cardiff University. I completed my undergraduate degree in Population Health and Medical Sciences at Swansea University, where I obtained First Class Honours. My hobbies and interests include health and fitness... primarily because I also love to bake. I also enjoy reading and socializing with friends! My guilty pleasures include: binge watching TV series (usually the same ones over and over again) and scrolling through TikTok for hours on end. I can assure you that whilst I loved studying biology, it wasn't without its challenges. I have first hand experience in building confidence for both day-to-day lessons and preparing for all aspects of exams. I myself, was tutored for A-level Biology, an experience that proved invaluable in aiding my understanding and providing tools for self directed study across all subject areas. This transpired onto my further academic studying as well. I endeavor to not only aid in the learning of a subject but also reflect and teach these fundamental tools in the tuition I provide. It would be great to help another student, whatever their age or aspirations for their chosen subject may be. Subjects: Lower level: science GCSE: Biology, English Literature / Language A-level: Biology, Psychology

The subjects I specialize in are Irish and English. I would like to teach English to lower level , younger students as I think this is the demographic that I would suit best. I would like to teach Irish up to Junior cert level. I attended school in Ireland , and therefore have an accurate knowledge of what junior cert students need to know for their Irish Exam, I know that there is an huge emphasis on oral Irish for the junior cert also. This would be my area of expertise as I am a fluent speaker. I would also be happy to teach Irish to younger, primary school children. I would also have a good knowledge of the Irish primary system and would be able to teach accordingly. I am a native English speaker. My official level of Irish is B2 certified, but I would say that I am a C1 speaker. I also speak French at a B1 level. I am 20 years old. I am from Dingle , in the Irish Ghaeltacht of Corca Dhuibhne, and I learned my Irish growing up here. I undertook my leaving certificate through Irish. I was always a person who loved languages and while my education was mostly through Irish , my favorite class was English. I am studying commerce with French at university college cork. This year I am on Erasmus in Grenoble in France as part of my degree. I would describe myself as a dedicated person who enjoys a challenge. I have high standards for myself and academically , I always like to fulfil my potential. I am also extremely extraverted and sociable and meeting people is something which brings me joy rather than fear. Outside of academics , I am an athletic person and I love being outdoors. I have played Gaelic football since I was 8. I also have previous experience in coaching football to underage boys and girls. I have recently picked up skiing in Grenoble. I like to read in my spare time and listen to podcasts. I am hugely interested in culture and language , and have had a great opportunity to meet people from all over the world , while improving my French here in Grenoble.

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