Hi, my name is Katia! I am a primary school level English and Maths tutor, and I am also available to tutor for the 11 plus entry exams. I have just graduated with a first-class honours degree in English Literature with Creative Writing from Bristol University. After University, I am hoping to get my TEFL qualification in order to teach English abroad so my goal is to have a future in teaching. Hence my interest in tutoring as I love working with kids and I feel very confident with the subject matter, particularly in English as I have studied this at a higher degree and it is what I am most passionate about. I am very flexible with my availability and would love to help your child gain a better understanding of the material, and feel confident in class. Learning is an enjoyable experience and I intend to ensure that my sessions inspire my pupils to learn! I look forward to hearing from you :) I have just graduated with a first-class honours degree in English Literature with Creative Writing from Bristol University. I also have A Levels in English Language, Fine Art and Philosophy.

🎓 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! 💪✨

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.

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