Ciao! È difficile cercare di presentarsi in poche righe, caspita! Forse il miglior modo per presentarmi potrebbe essere quello di parlarvi delle mie passioni. Amo la letteratura...penso che poche cose al mondo mi rendano felice come la lettura di un buon libro. Forse solo il viaggiare...ma andiamo, chi viaggia senza portarsi un buon libro sotto braccio? E questo mio amore per i viaggi e la letteratura mondiale mi porta all'altra mia grande passione, le lingue! Ecco ciò che vorrei offrirvi. Insegnare le lingue e le letterature mi darebbe modo di condividere con voi ciò che per me rappresenta quasi una raison d'être! E questo ci porta alla mia terza grande passione, l'insegnamento. Ed è proprio la passione per l'insegnamento, la letteratura e le lingue che mi ha portata a compiere un determinato percorso di studi che mi permettesse di fondere queste mie passioni. Possiedo difatti una laurea in Lingue e Letterature straniere ed una laurea magistrale in Filologia moderna ad indirizzo storico-didattico; attualmente sto svolgendo un dottorato di ricerca nel dipartimento di Italianistica presso la NUIG di Galway. È un percorso che mi ha permesso di entrare nel mondo dell'insegnamento, dandomi molte soddisfazioni; perché non c'è nulla di più soddisfacente che insegnare la cultura e vederne i frutti nel rendimento scolastico dei ragazzi che ho seguito. Spero che questa mia presentazione possa fornirvi un piccolo scorcio sulla mia persona. A presto, Michela Titoli: - Diploma presso il Liceo Socio-Psico-Pedagogico Veronica Gambara di Brescia - Laurea Triennale in Lingue e Letterature Straniere Moderne presso UNIBG (Inglese & Spagnolo) - Laurea Magistrale in Filologia Moderna presso l'Università degli Studi di Bergamo - Dottorato di ricerca in Italianistica presso NUIG Galway (in corso) Certificazioni: - IELTS Academic: 7.5 (Livello C1)

Hi, I'm Savannah Stanislaus, I'm 23 years old and I am a recent graduate from the University of Oxford with a BA in German. Over the years, I've tutored a variety of subjects in both individual and group settings, including English at GCSE and A Level, as well as a foreign language, German as a foreign language and A level, Debating and Philosophy A level. My approach to tutoring is one that is personal and based on the individual's goals and learning style, but generally I like to frame the content in a way that feels relatable to what the individual may already be aware of and build from there. Many of my former students have wanted to focus on exams, so I've mastered the ability to interpret exam questions and mark schemes and then frame the demands in a way that is accessible to the student. I have a BA in German from the University of Oxford. My degree was broad and focused not only on the German Language but also on Literature through time, history, medieval German Language, extensive translation, Linguistics, culture and politics in the German-speaking world. My main interests lie in Literature, Linguistics and Philosophy. My dissertation received a first class grade and was Philosophy-based with the title 'Is Ludwig Wittgenstein's distinction between 'Knowledge' and 'Certainty' as a critique of G. E. Moore and the field of philosophical scepticism, worthwhile?’

Hi there! My name is Kevin and I am an English and Irish teacher who recently moved to London to pursue an MA in Theatre Directing. I have been teaching several students both subjects over the past 2 years to great success. I have experience teaching English and Irish to all levels, History to GCSE standard and Performing Arts up to third level. I love seeing students find a passion for a subject they have written off as being too difficult or obscure. I am approachable, friendly and love the subjects I teach. I usually get students to teach the subjects to me to see if they truly understand what we have covered. I am also a big nerd with a love for all things fantasy, literature and animation! I have a 2.1 Masters in Education and currently on a 1.1 average on MA in Theatre Directing. I also have a BA in English and Irish with Performing Arts Studies. I also have a grade 8 RIAM qualification in Piano and am extremely passionate about music.

Emily has been amazing for our daughter. She is kind, patient and listens to her needs. They work well together and the difference in our daughters confidence, enjoyment and ability in Maths is hugely noticeable. Best thing we ever did, just wish we had found Emily and Go Student sooner!

One of the best decisions we’ve made as a family. Our boy was 3-4 years behind at school who have been completely inept. We had to look outside of state provision in order to give him a chance of literacy and numeracy. The last 8 weeks have seen the most progress he’s made in 4 years. We had a wonderful welcome from Kristian and a simply brilliant teacher in Claire. We then have our designated support manager Adam who is always on hand to discuss any issues. This is a really classy operation. Their people are all on message and highly competent. I feel so great about the improvements my lad is making and the decision I made to engage Go student. We now have the comfort and security of having a 3 year agreement and we feel our son will be light years ahead of where he is now. All power to GoStudent and thank you.
By subjects
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.
