✩GoStudent Tutor of the Year – 2025 Award 4700+ Lessons delivered PhD candidate & A Level / GCSE Teacher SEN Tutor (Dyslexia Focus) – No Experience with ASD or Other SEN -Preferred Age Group: Above Year 6 (Native & EFL/ESL) -Main Focus: AQA/OCR/Edexcel GCSE, ICE IGCSE, AS, and A Levels -IELTS exam board In my five years of teaching, I’ve observed that most GCSE students overlook the contextual understanding of literary texts, struggle with language and structure analysis, and often face challenges with time management. Having delivered over 4700 private lessons, I’ve developed a unique program that addresses both the theoretical and practical aspects of language and literature studies. Over the past 4.5 years, I’ve helped more than 160 students achieve at least a grade 7 in their GCSEs. About Me Language is not just a tool for communication, it's rather a reflection of how we see ourselves, our world and culture. I am a first year PhD candidate who recently published a paper on sexism and gender bias to help promote social justice by teaching politically correct language. In light of my educational research I learned that each student has a unique mind and uses different techniques to learn. Hence, my responsibility entails guiding each individual to unlock their complete potential. In my free time you'll always find me in the gym, or on a football pitch. Traveling also provides a refreshing break from my scholarly activities. ✩Valedictorian Education: PhD Candidate (first year in the program) MA High distinction researcher: Sociopragmatics & Classroom Research ✩Attained the top position in Bachelor's degree studies specializing in English Linguistics and Literature ✩Secured the highest ranking in both Masters 1 and Masters 2 studies focusing on Linguistic Research ✩Holder of a Bachelor's degree in Education and recipient of a Teaching Diploma (Masters 1)
