Hi, my name is Aoife, I am 18 years old and currently a first year law student at the University of Leeds (and an aspiring human rights lawyer!). My special subject is English, primarily English literature. My highest academic achievements are my 3 A levels (A* in politics, A in history, B in English literature). I am willing to tutor the English subject to all year groups 7-11 in secondary as I believe this is when that extra boost in confidence is so important! My passion for English is reflected in my GCSE grades too - achieving a grade 9 in English language and grade 8 in English literature. I have previous experience with children with SEN needs such as autism and ADHD, shaping my teaching style as one of patience and prioritising clarity without exerting pressure on a student. I personally struggled with confidence in both primary and secondary school, and going through tutoring myself helped with this enormously. My personal hobbies include reading and creating artwork in my free time. I look forward to helping you/your child with English and literacy skills! For secondary school I attended Carr Manor Community school, achieving GSCEs all grade 7 and above. I excelled in humanities subjects, with a grade 9 in both history and English language and a grade 8 in English literature. My academic passion carried on into my A levels which I completed at Notre Dame Catholic VI Form College. I achieved an A* in A level politics, A in A level history and a B in English literature. I have gone on to be accepted to study law at the University of Leeds, a Russell group university. I remain open to constantly improving my skills and developing new ones and therefore significantly look forward to tutoring new students, sharing my knowledge and developing my own. I specialise in English and literacy, hoping to develop the skills of younger students to provide that extra boost in confidence.

I am a dedicated and results-driven tutor with a strong academic background in the sciences, supported by hands-on experience in laboratory research and academic writing. I have contributed to a publication with the British Heart Foundation in collaboration with the University of Oxford, which strengthened my ability to analyse complex information and communicate it clearly. This experience allows me to explain complex scientific concepts in a way that is clear, engaging, and accessible to students of all levels. I specialise in GCSE Biology and 11+ preparation, with a clear focus on helping students achieve top grades (A/A*). My teaching style is structured, engaging, and tailored to each student’s individual needs. I break down challenging concepts into simple, digestible steps and place strong emphasis on exam technique, ensuring students can confidently apply their knowledge. For 11+ students, I provide targeted support in areas such as problem-solving, comprehension, and critical thinking. I adapt each lesson to suit the student’s pace and learning style, creating a supportive environment where they feel comfortable asking questions and building confidence. Outside of tutoring, I enjoy reading widely, particularly around science and personal development, which helps me bring fresh perspectives into my teaching. I enjoy inspiring and supporting others in their learning, keeping active, and pursuing my love of singing, experiences that have shaped my confidence and ability to connect with people effectively. My goal is not only to improve grades but to develop independent learners who feel empowered in their studies. I am committed to delivering high-quality, virtual tutoring that is both supportive and results-focused, helping every student reach their full academic potential. I hold a first-class degree in Biomedical Science, with a strong focus on molecular biology, genetics, and physiology. During my studies, I gained extensive laboratory experience, including DNA extraction, library preparation, and NGS techniques, which strengthened my practical, analytical, and problem-solving skills. I have contributed to a publication with the British Heart Foundation in collaboration with the University of Oxford, enhancing my ability to communicate complex scientific concepts clearly and effectively. In addition, I hold a Level 3 Diploma in Paramedic Science, with training in emergency medicine, which has further developed my practical, decision-making, and problem-solving skills in high-pressure situations. My academic foundation is complemented by GCSEs predominantly at A and A* grades, reflecting a strong record of consistent achievement across core subjects. Alongside my academic qualifications, I have completed training in teaching and academic mentoring, equipping me to design lessons tailored to individual learning needs and help students achieve top grades. I chose Biomedical Science out of a passion for understanding living systems and applying scientific knowledge in practical ways. My combination of a first-class academic record, research and lab experience, paramedic training, and tutoring expertise allows me to confidently support students in GCSE Biology and 11+ preparation. I focus on building both strong subject knowledge and effective exam strategies, helping students gain confidence, stay motivated, and excel academically.

My name is Saffron, and I am a 2nd year Neuroscience student at the University of Manchester. Getting into this course at a Russel Group University required stellar GCSE and A Level grades which I was able to achieve through thorough and dedicated studies and personal teaching. I believe that active learning through frequent recall, question and answer sessions and flashcards is the best way to retain information. Combining this with practice paper questions from the start of teaching guarantees success. I am well versed in working with primary and secondary school students through 1 to 1 teaching and am committed to creating an interactive, personalised, and enjoyable lesson plan catered to every pupil's learning style.

Hi, I'm Evie, I'm 21 years old and currently studying Biomedical Science at Nottingham Trent University. I achieved a grade 9 in biology, chemistry and maths at GCSE, and I am looking forward to helping you do your best! I want to work together to tailor your tutoring experience to what you need the most. ◡̈ I attended Newcastle-under-Lyme School and NULS Sixth Form. At NULS, I achieved grade 8 in English language and PE, and a 7 in Spanish, with distinction in speaking. I achieved a grade 9 in all other GCSEs, including triple science and an extra GCSE in further maths. At A-level, I received a C in biology, chemistry, and maths and an A at AS level Photography. I am currently studying towards a BSc in Biomedical Science at Nottingham Trent University.
