New tutor

I am an experienced educator with over fifteen years in teaching and mentoring, now specialising in English, Psychology, and Sociology up to A-level. My academic background includes a BA in Sociology, a diploma in Counselling, ACCHP accreditation, and I am currently completing a Master’s in Psychology at the University of Portsmouth. This academic journey, combined with my teaching experience, allows me to provide learners with both subject expertise and practical strategies to achieve success. In English, I focus on building strong foundations in reading, writing, and critical analysis, helping learners gain the confidence to express themselves clearly and effectively. My Sociology and Psychology teaching draws on my academic knowledge and real-world insights, making lessons engaging and relevant by connecting theory to contemporary issues and everyday life. I believe that every learner has unique strengths, and I adapt my teaching style to meet individual needs. My counselling background helps me create a supportive environment where learners feel comfortable to ask questions, take risks, and develop resilience. Organised, approachable, and enthusiastic, I encourage students not only to meet their academic goals but also to grow in confidence and independent thinking. Above all, I am committed to inspiring curiosity, developing critical skills, and empowering learners to reach their full potential in their chosen subjects. My academic background reflects both a strong commitment to education and a passion for understanding people, society, and the human mind. I hold a Bachelor of Arts in Sociology and Education from Griffith University, Australia, where I developed a foundation in social theory, educational practice, and the ways in which learning is shaped by cultural and societal factors. This degree gave me valuable insights into both the structures of society and the transformative power of education. Building on this, I undertook a Level 4 Diploma in Counselling, which allowed me to gain a deeper understanding of human behaviour, communication, and emotional wellbeing. This qualification provided practical tools for supporting individuals and groups, strengthening my ability to create learning environments that are empathetic, inclusive, and responsive to different needs. Currently, I am completing a Master’s in Psychology at the University of Portsmouth, with only the final stage remaining. This advanced study has deepened my knowledge of psychological theory, research, and application. It has also enhanced my analytical and critical thinking skills, and further developed my ability to connect theory with practice. Studying at postgraduate level has reinforced my commitment to lifelong learning and prepared me to bring a high level of academic and practical expertise into my teaching. Taken together, these qualifications demonstrate not only my academic achievement but also my dedication to education, psychology, and counselling—fields that all intersect in my work as an educator and tutor.

New tutor

Hi, I’m Kayode Ewumi, an English tutor with a passion for helping students of all ages find joy in literature and language. From Year 6 to Year 13, I work with students to develop their reading, writing, and critical thinking skills, aiming to make English not just something they have to learn, but something they can truly enjoy and excel in. For me, teaching English is about more than just understanding grammar or memorizing quotes; it’s about helping students connect with the texts they read and empowering them to express their ideas clearly and confidently. Whether it’s analyzing a classic novel or improving essay-writing skills, I take pride in breaking down complex ideas into bite-sized, understandable pieces that students can relate to. I particularly enjoy working with new students because each one brings a fresh perspective and new challenge. I love discovering their strengths and helping them tackle areas that need improvement, especially when it comes to building confidence in their writing and comprehension. I believe every student has the ability to improve and succeed with the right guidance and support. It’s incredibly rewarding to see students grow and take ownership of their learning. I’m excited to help each of my students find their voice in English, and I look forward to seeing them not only succeed in their exams but also develop a lifelong love for reading and writing. I began my academic journey at St. Thomas the Apostle School, where I built a solid foundation across a range of subjects, particularly in the humanities. It was here that my interest in English and the arts first sparked. After completing my secondary education, I attended City and Islington College for my A-Levels, where I focused on subjects like English Literature and Language. The college environment provided a more focused, mature setting for my studies, and I was challenged to delve deeper into texts and engage in more analytical discussions. This experience solidified my commitment to pursuing a career that combined both my love for English and the performing arts. I then went on to study Theatre and English at Coventry University, a decision that allowed me to merge my two main academic interests. The university environment was intellectually stimulating, and I had the opportunity to explore both the literary world of English and the expressive, creative world of theatre. Throughout my degree, I honed my writing, critical analysis, and performance skills, which culminated in me graduating with First-Class Honours.

April Jane A.

New tutor

Hi! My name is April Jane, and I’ve been teaching Math and English for over six years. I love tutoring because it gives me the chance to help students grow in confidence, build real-world skills, and discover that learning can actually be fun and rewarding. I teach both English and Math, using clear explanations, interactive activities, and real-life examples so my students don’t just memorize but truly understand. I especially enjoy working with primary and high school learners, guiding them to reach their goals step by step. Outside the classroom, I enjoy baking sweet treats and watching mystery shows, which often spark my creativity and problem-solving skills. Teaching is not just my profession—it’s my passion, and I’d love to be part of your learning journey! I earned my Bachelor of Science in Accountancy from Western Leyte College, where I developed strong analytical, problem-solving, and organizational skills. My academic background gave me a solid foundation in mathematics and logical reasoning, which I now apply to teaching. Alongside this, I hold a TEFL Certification, allowing me to design clear and engaging lessons. Over the past six years, I’ve gained tutoring experience in both Math and English, teaching diverse learners across different age groups and cultural backgrounds, ensuring students feel confident, supported, and motivated to succeed.

Subjects: ESL, Phonics Other language spoken: basic Spanish Hi! My name is Claire. I'm an experienced online English teacher from the UK. I teach English to students as a foreign language. I love meeting new students, getting to know them and supporting them on their journey to learning English. I particularly enjoy finding out students interests and bringing together some lesson material just for them. We can work on vocabulary, pronunciation, grammar, listening, writing, reading or fluency. I am happy to suggest some areas or perhaps there are things that you would like to work on. I like to create a positive learning environment where reoccurring mistakes feed into future learning rather than requiring constant correction. My interest include gardening, travel and design but I love hearing from students about their interests in gaming, music and technology. Book a lesson with me now, I can't wait to meet you. At Central Saint Martins in London I completed my master's degree in Narrative Environments. It was such an fascinating area to study with lots of live design projects in and around London. Since then, I have worked at the Science Museum in London and worked in project coordination and management on Lottery funded projects related to education and heritage. I enjoy finding out about museum projects and related ethical debates.

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?’
