Mathilda M.
New tutor
Dear Prospective Students, I am a dynamic and enthusiastic individual with a passion for teaching and learning. My interests include drawing and listening to uplifting music, which inspire my creativity and positivity. My faith in Jesus Christ guides me to strive for excellence and reach my full potential, and I believe that a supportive environment is crucial for achieving success. As a tutor, I am committed to creating a comfortable and engaging learning experience, fostering a positive atmosphere that encourages growth and development. With a strong background in education and a genuine desire to help students excel, I am confident in my ability to make a positive impact. My goal is to empower students to reach their full potential, and I am excited about the prospect of working with like-minded individuals who share my enthusiasm for learning. I look forward to meeting my students and contributing to their academic success. Thank you for considering my profile. I am eager to establish a fruitful and enjoyable learning experience. Best regards, MASHISHI Keneilwe Mathilda I matriculated in 2021 with a strong academic record, particularly in Science, Pure Mathematics, and Music - a subject I am passionate about. I achieved a commendable pass rate of over 80% in English. 70% in music and 60% in mathematics. During my secondary and high school years, I informally tutored my classmates, which not only honed my teaching skills but also earned me recognition from my peers and teachers. My music teacher notably remarked on my ability to teach, stating that despite being a learner, I made an excellent teacher. My classmates frequently praised my ability to explain complex concepts in a clear and concise manner, often preferring my explanations to those of their teachers. With three years of experience in a teaching environment, primarily in the Foundation Phase, I am now pursuing my Bachelor's degree in Education at Stadio School of Education in South Africa. I am eager to leverage this platform to support learners in their educational journey while continuing to grow as an individual. I am excited about the prospect of contributing to the growth and development of students and look forward to the opportunity to make a positive impact.

I believe in the importance of not only studying a subject but enjoying it too, and I feel that through my various methods of explanation, I would be able to engage the students positively. Every student deserves access to reach their full potential and I strive to do this in the best way for them. I understand that there is not an umbrella method of teaching and therefore I am happy to accommodate each student's way of learning. I know the importance of English not only in a school setting but in life in general and I want to equip the students with the best knowledge of English, that they can apply to all forms of life. I also thoroughly enjoy teaching KS2 and KS3 maths as I am very comfortable with the content. I know the various methods to make maths easier for someone who did not grasp maths as easily as I did English. History has always been my favourite subject both at GCSE and A level and I would love to share my passion and knowledge of the subject. I studied 10 GCSEs in a range of subjects and English and Humanities have always been my strength. Hence I have a passion for transferring my knowledge to other students. At A Level I studied Government and Politics, RS and History which were all essay-based subjects. Through studying these subjects I understand the importance of being to write eloquently and thoroughly which is a life skill, regardless of the career you decide to pursue. I have completed a LLB Law, with a First Class and I am currently studying the Bar Practice Course.

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.
