I am a graduating student from the University of Exeter with a BA in English Literature. I have an excellent academic record; I achieved the top grades in GCSE and A-Level English. My teaching philosophy is profoundly influenced by my own academic journey. The importance of a dynamic learning environment and a good rapport with my tutees is crucial to their academic success From ages 4-13 I attended Brockhurst and Marlston House school. From 13-16 I attended Monkton Combe Senior School, Bath. I achieved two 9s in English Literature and English Language From 16-18 I attended Peter Symonds College, Winchester. I achieved A A A A* in English, History, Psychology and an extended project on Jane Austen At 18 I applied to Oxford and I passed the English entrance exam (ELAT) where I achieved 48/52 From 18-21 I attended the University of Exeter and I'm on track to achieve a 2:1 I have tutored my peers throughout university, I have edited essays and I know what markers are looking for at all levels of English literature studies. I have been self employed in HR, Data management and tennis coaching. I have experience in managing client expectations and getting results.

Hi! I'm Favour, I have experience tutoring students who are studying English language and Literature for their GCSE's. As a tutor I aim to breakdown questions & lessons to go along with the students' pace. During lessons I use the students interest to channel their learning & I am patient to ensure they get the most of the time. For example I once used a students' sports interest to breakdown the structure question in the AQA language paper 1 question 3. What I love the most about tutoring (apart from spreading knowledge of course) is getting to know, learn and see students develop. I love seeing wonderful personalities and interests come through, so I look forward to meeting you soon! Outside of tutoring, I am involved in marketing communications. In my spare time I like to watch movies, videos on dog grooming, skincare & perfumes, spend time with friends and bake (when I can).
