Preferred Student Age Groups Am happy to tutor primary/ GCSE/ A-Level, as well as students or adults who have English as a Second Language. About me I love to travel, explore new places and meet people from different cultures. I spent ten years living in Athens, Greece where I worked as a private tutor: teaching TEFL to a wide variety of people - from complete beginners to students wishing to take Cambridge Proficiency exams in order to access UK universities. I have a BA Hons degree in Modern Languages: English/French with a module in Classical Greek Language and Literature. I believe in stress-free lessons , and learning in a relaxed setting. As a tutor I am not there to add pressure, but to help take pressure off. In terms of hobbies, I love reading, writing stories, and watching Turkish TV dramas. I am also a huge tennis fan. Last, but not least, I enjoy all forms of sugar - especially cake! Aside from my degree, I am qualified to teach TEFL. I really enjoy working with those who don't have English as a first language. It's a thrill to help them improve their speaking and listening - as well as reading and writing skills. It's wonderful to see them grow in confidence when expressing themselves in English. Furthermore, I am qualified to do proofreading. This fits in well with teaching English. I also have a certificate in Counselling Skills.

Ich heiße Anna und studiere Internationale Wirtschaft auf Englisch an der ELTE-Universität in Budapest. Mathematik hat mich schon immer fasziniert, besonders das Erklären und Weitergeben von Wissen. Deshalb habe ich mich entschieden, als Tutorin zu arbeiten. Mein Ziel ist es, dir zu zeigen, dass Mathe nicht nur lösbar, sondern auch spannend sein kann! Mir ist es besonders wichtig, komplexe Aufgaben verständlich in kleine Schritte aufzuteilen, damit du sie leichter nachvollziehen kannst. Gemeinsam finden wir den besten Weg, damit du Mathe nicht nur verstehst, sondern auch Spaß daran hast! Ich habe mein Abitur an einem Gymnasium mit erhöhtem Mathematik-Niveau absolviert. Leider hatte ich einen Mathelehrer, der nur ungern auf die Schwierigkeiten seiner Schüler einging. Doch anstatt aufzugeben, brachte ich mir den Stoff selbst bei – oft stundenlang zu Hause – und bestand mein Abitur mit großem Erfolg. Das eigenständige Lernen hat mir nicht nur viel Spaß gemacht, sondern auch mein Interesse daran geweckt, anderen zu helfen. Meine erste "Schülerin" war meine Schwester, die sich oft in den einzelnen Schritten eines Problems verlor. Durch sie habe ich gelernt, scheinbar einfache Konzepte noch klarer und verständlicher zu erklären. Später unterstützte ich auch mehrere Mitschüler dabei, ihre Mathematiknoten zu verbessern. Derzeit helfe ich einer Studentin an der Universität in Mathematik, und bereits nach wenigen Einheiten sind deutliche Fortschritte in ihren Ergebnissen zu sehen.
