Hi, my name is Oz. I have been tutoring for about 4 years now. I am kind, empathetic, and patient, always striving to make my students feel comfortable and engaged in the subject. I like to have a fun puzzle or challenge to do towards the end of each lesson to develop problem solving skills and just have fun. Subjects I teach: Maths: Primary, Secondary Physics: Secondary Education experience: International Baccalaureate (IB) Nat 5, Highers, GCSE I have a BSc in Maths & Physics and I am currently completing a Master's degree in Maths & Physics. I have been tutoring in Maths and Physics for at least four years, including paid and volunteer work.

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.

My name is Dmitri Yendrzheyevskiy. Nice to meet you :) I am an upcoming third-year student studying economics with German. I studied French, German, Russian and English at A level. I love learning languages, speaking both Russian and English natively. Having grown up speaking Russian at home, I have always felt passionate for learning and improving languages; for example, I'm currently learning Chinese and am considering learning Italian and Japanese in the future :D Generally, my sessions depend on whom I am working with. For beginners of French and German, I begin by following the GCSE AQA textbook, where I help teach the skills necessary to learn more independently. The textbook begins with more general stuff like basic grammar, and then branches off into specific topics, such as talking about yourself. I encourage the student to talk as much German and French as possible, helping them to develop a native accent. To maintain and strengthen my languages, I personally dedicate time every day to honing my language skills through listening to films and books of the respective language. In Maths, if I am teaching someone who is a beginner, I will first try to get to know what works for the student, and then using games to encourage younger learners to learn specific parts of maths. For GCSE students, I will follow the specification, skipping over the parts which the student knows well. To determine their general knowledge, I will start by giving a basic test of each successive section, and spend more time on the sections the student does more poorly in. For GCSE and A level students for all of my subjects, I will work with the student in establishing areas of weakness in their GCSEs, and understand their general level and which level they are working at. I will show what examiners want, and how exactly to reach the higher bands to get the highest marks. I am always updating myself on the latest news from AQA to always be familiar with the exact exam structure. I am familiar with most of the A level texts for both French and German, and I am reading through the English A level and GCSE texts. For Russian, I will work through a textbook with the student. I will constantly provide support with pronunciation and determine based on their goals what they want to do; whether they want to learn how to read and write cursive, or simply read and send messages in text form (as the written and typed language looks different). I am very familiar with both GCSE and A level Russian, and know the texts and films. I set homework every week, and check back on it on the next lesson. Depending on the time of month, I am happy to let the student decide which areas they are weakest in, and then work with them on those areas, be those listening, or writing, or a specific part of GCSE that they don't understand. I am proactive in providing the best experience for all of my students, and I am passionate about the work that I do. I have tutored for over a year and the experience has benefitted me in many ways. I'd like to provide a positive experience for all of my students regardless of age. I am patient and understanding and will take the time to help all of my students. Thank you for taking the time to read my profile. I hope I will meet you soon :) I studied at QE boys, a Grammar school which ranks as no1 in UK grammar schools. I received excellent grades for all of my subjects, and now currently attend the University of Birmingham, a UK Russell group university with high requirements.
