Hi! I have been teaching French, German, English and Italian for 12 years. I love art, walking and keeping fit. I have lived and worked in Italy. I have worked with both adults and children. I also run a regular arts club for young carers. I have helped students gain qualifications in languages such as GCSE's. I have always been very interested in learning languages. At school I gained a GCSE in French, German and Modern Greek. I have an A-level in French and German and then I studied Italian and German at The University of Birmingham and gained a BA joint hons in German and Italian.

I’m Akosua, a Chemical Engineering student who enjoys understanding how things work and finding new ideas to explore. I’m naturally calm and steady, and I like taking my time to think things through. People often describe me as approachable and easy to talk to, and I enjoy creating a positive atmosphere wherever I am. My experience in customer service and child supervision has helped me grow into someone who communicates clearly, listens well, and stays patient even when things get busy. I enjoy connecting with others, supporting people when they need it, and bringing a sense of reliability and kindness into my everyday life. Outside my studies, I like staying active, listening to music, and discovering new interests. I care about personal growth and being someone others can depend on, and those values shape how I move through the world. I completed my secondary education at The Nobel School, where I finished all of my GCSEs across a wide range of subjects. I continued into sixth form at the same school, studying A‑levels in Biology, Chemistry, and Physics, which strengthened my interest in science and problem‑solving and prepared me for further study. I am now studying for a BEng in Chemical Engineering at Swansea University, where I’m building a strong foundation in engineering principles, laboratory work, analytical thinking, and applied scientific methods. My academic strengths and specialisations are in mathematics, chemistry, and physics, which support both my degree and my wider academic interests. Alongside my formal education, I’ve gained experience in customer service, child supervision, and scientific environments through roles at Argos, Sunday School, and placements at Lister Hospital, GSK, and BP. These experiences have strengthened my communication skills, professionalism, and ability to work well with different people. Overall, my educational journey has been shaped by curiosity, consistency, and a genuine interest in understanding how things work.

Lower level: Science and Maths GCSE : Biology, Chemistry, Physics, and Maths Exam Board: AQA,Edexcel Languages: English Preferred age group: Lower level (GCSE), KS3 I have tutored 700+ hours on GoStudent. ............................................................................................................................................. I bring a strong foundation in the sciences to my role as a dedicated tutor. Having successfully completed A-levels in Biology, Chemistry, Physics, and Mathematics, I am well acquainted in the intricacies of these subjects. My academic journey has further evolved as I currently pursue a degree in Chemical Engineering as an undergraduate student.

I am an extremely enthusiastic and positive person. I currently teach English early years, Primary school/Reception year. SEND Primary and Highschool and ESL, with over 25 years experience. Patience is my middle name. I am an energetic and a fun teacher. Using a variety of methods including: auditory, visual, reading/writing, verbal and kinaesthetic movement. I look forward to meeting you, my future student. My academic journey started after high school and continues to present. Studying and learning never stops. It is a part of self growth. I actively ensure I continuously follow CLP. Fields of teaching include: English Reception year, English Primary school, English Primary and Highschool for SEN, SEND and ALN students who are looking to improve their skills in English. I also teach English as a Second language and Business English. An achievement of mine was when one of my students won GOLD at the Shanghai Special Olympics. In January 2025, GoStudent have added AI to GoClass. AI training was completed and is boosting tutoring outcomes.
