Hi, I’m Maite! I’m a native German speaker and teach German at all levels — Primary, GCSE, and A-Level. Besides German and English, I also speak French and Spanish. I hold a BA in Cultural Studies with a minor in Educational Science, which deepened my understanding of cross-cultural learning, communication, and how to make complex ideas accessible. During my time at university, I spent over three years tutoring children of different ages, working in a programme led by the German federal government to support children from migrant and refugee backgrounds in their school learning. I am now excited to work with adults as well. When I think back to my own school years, the teachers who inspired me most were those whose honest passion made even my least favourite subjects enjoyable. That’s the atmosphere I aim to create in my lessons: engaging, light, and enjoyable. Outside tutoring, I teach meditation and mindfulness and support a charity creatively, which helps me bring patience, flexibility, and creativity into my teaching. I tailor lessons to each student — whether you need grammar support, speaking practice, exam preparation, or a personalised lesson to build confidence at your own pace, or simply want to learn German out of interest and enjoyment. I hold a BA in Cultural Studies and Educational Science, which I completed at Leuphana University in Lüneburg, Germany. I specialised in cultural theory and visual culture and spent an Erasmus semester at Université Bordeaux Montaigne in France. In addition, I hold a Yoga Alliance–approved 200-hour Yoga Teacher Certificate, complemented by an additional 50 hours of training in meditation.

If you are looking for a tutor who combines deep subject expertise with a strategic, exam-oriented approach, I am here to help. As an Electrical-Electronics Engineer holding dual degrees in Engineering and Business Administration, and with extensive teaching experience right here on GoStudent, I specialize in helping students navigate the pressures of GCSEs across all major exam boards (AQA, Edexcel, OCR, IGCSE). Why Choose Me? Exam-Focused Strategy: I don't just teach the syllabus; I teach the mark scheme. I have a proven track record of moving students from "struggling" to "A/A*" by mastering exam techniques and time management. Expert Adaptability: Having studied in multiple countries, I adapt my teaching style to the students’ unique pace. Whether it’s an intensive "crash course" for upcoming GCSEs or long-term support to build confidence, I tailor every session. The "Insider" Edge: As an Electrical-Electronics Engineer with a background in business, I pair my understanding of complex STEM subjects with clear communication and structured study plans. I bridge the gap between rigorous academic theories and "fun," relatable learning. Experience Across the Board: With 5 years of professional tutoring and 8 years of volunteering, I’ve worked with all ages—from primary foundations to high-stakes secondary exams. My Philosophy I believe that "learning should be fun," but I also know that results build confidence. My goal is to remove the fear of the subject and replace it with a passion for improvement. Whether your child needs a rigorous, fast-paced review for their upcoming GCSEs or patient, long-term support to overcome their academic anxieties, I have the tools and the experience to get them there. Education: Dual Degrees in Engineering & Business I hold degrees in both Electrical and Electronics Engineering and Business Administration. This unique combination pairs the deep, analytical rigor required for advanced mathematics and physics with the strategic communication and organizational skills of a business background. My academic journey has been highly international, allowing me to study, collaborate, and teach across different cultures and educational frameworks. This global exposure has made me highly adaptable, enabling me to seamlessly navigate the UK curriculum while bringing an innovative, well-rounded approach to problem-solving. I speak multiple languages and pride myself on connecting easily with students from all backgrounds, turning complex subjects into clear, manageable strategies for success.

Hi! My name is Amy and I’m currently studying Maths and Philosophy at the University of Leeds. I am a Maths tutor aiming to help students between KS2 and GCSE level to enjoy and understand Maths. Beyond studying, I have a passion for dancing and love to perform on stage. When I am not dancing, I also love to solve puzzles and riddles. Initially, I attended All Saints Primary School. Then, I went to Greenbank High School and received 11 GCSEs with grades ranging from 7-9. I took a mix of GCSE subjects from Dance and Drama to History and Further Maths. After High School, I attended Runshaw College. I completed A-levels in Maths, Psychology and English Literature and earned grades AAC. I also completed an AS-level in Further Maths and earned a grade C. I am currently completing a BSc Maths and Philosophy honours degree programme at the University of Leeds. I have completed my second year and will hopefully be graduating in the summer of 2026.

Hello! I'm a tutor for GCSE Maths, Physics and Chemistry. Curiosity is so important to me - seizing opportunities wherever possible and always willing to try out a diverse and novel range of experiences. I also apply this mindset to the world of academia. I'm a strong believer that learning across disciplines teaches you one of the most important skills: understanding how someone else thinks. If you've had to deconstruct complicated concepts in a variety of subjects you quickly become adept at understanding where a person is getting stuck. I meet you where you're at. No skipping forward. We identify the gaps. Fill those gaps properly. And build from there. There are very few students who lack ability, they've just not had something explained to them in the right way yet. Another big part of my job is building confidence. Learning how to trust your own judgement and rationale. How to ask the right questions. How to stop panicking and second-guessing yourself during exams. You already have the knowledge, you just have to realise it! I studied Maths, Further Maths, Chemistry and Physics at A Level and AS Level - so the subjects I tutor are ones I've lived and breathed through exams myself, not too long ago. I know the syllabuses well. At GCSE, I achieved 13 A*s across a broad range of subjects including Maths, Further Maths, Physics, Chemistry, Biology, English Language, English Literature and Geography, among others. I was also awarded a prize for Citizenship and Academics as Best in Year. Outside of the classroom, I've always looked for ways to stretch myself - whether that was competitive debating, mentoring other students, or delivering weekly talks to school students and hospital staff linking science and medicine with real-world issues. I also earned Gold (Best in Year) in a UK Mathematics Trust-style competition. More recently, I've applied that academic foundation to some pretty varied things - from building mathematical models to address housing challenges, to achieving a top ~0.02% award in an international essay competition.
