As a passionate and dedicated tutor, I'm excited to help students succeed in Mathematics, Computer Science, and 11+ preparation. While I'm new to tutoring, my fresh perspective and enthusiasm for teaching are matched by a strong understanding of the subjects I teach. Went to Nower Hill High School and completed 11 GCSEs with grades 9 in Maths, Physics and Computer Science and grades 8 in Further Maths, Chemistry and Business Studies. Just completed A level in Maths Physics and Computer Science at Nower Hill in 2024.

Originally from Manchester, I now live in Scotland with my cat, Gus. My enthusiasm for literature drives me to explore a wide range of perspectives through various genres, from captivating dystopian tales to poignant poetry. Additionally, I have a keen interest in TV, film, and creative writing, which adds a touch of imagination to our lessons. Right now, I'm immersed in crafting a collection of short stories that delve into the intricacies of human connections. I've also got a novel in the works that's really close to my heart. Excitingly, I'm also exploring opportunities for doctoral research, aiming to deepen my knowledge and appreciation of literature and language. But most importantly, I'm here to help you unleash your creativity and deepen your love for English. Let's embark on this journey together! Hello! I'm Ashleigh, and I'm thrilled to be your English tutor! With nearly a decade of tutoring experience, I'm here to navigate the complexities of language and literature alongside you. Whether we're dissecting Shakespearean prose or refining your creative writing skills, I aim to ensure that learning is both enriching and enjoyable. Here’s what I bring to the table: -GCSE English (KS3-KS4) (AQA Exam Board): I specialise in GCSE English, particularly tailored to the AQA exam board, but I’m adept at teaching English across the entire secondary education curriculum. Whether it’s analysing literature, mastering language skills, or acing exams, I’ve got you covered. -SQA English (National 5 and Higher): I’ve successfully guided students through the Scottish Qualifications Authority (SQA) English courses at both National 5 and Higher levels. -Creative Writing: I offer engaging creative writing sessions where we’ll craft stories, poems, and explore language playfully. -Conversational English: Enhance your real-world communication skills. We’ll focus on conversational English, practical vocabulary, and cultural nuances. Whether you’re preparing for exams, seeking language enrichment, or simply passionate about words, I’m here to guide you. My academic journey includes earning two degrees from the University of Stirling: a Bachelor of Arts with Honours in English Studies and a recent postgraduate degree in MLitt Creative Writing, where I graduated with distinction. This experience has deepened my understanding of storytelling and language, and I'm eager to share my insights with you, whether you're aspiring to be a novelist or simply aiming to enhance your conversational English skills. Currently, I'm furthering my teaching expertise through a Level 5 TEFL course. Beyond tutoring, my passion for writing extends to being a published short story writer and poet, and I also freelance as an editor in my spare time. Central to my teaching philosophy is fostering independent thinking and self-discovery. I firmly believe in empowering students to think critically and develop lifelong learning skills. My approach is professional yet relaxed, creating an environment where you feel encouraged to explore and express yourself freely. Whether you're grappling with exam anxiety, brimming with creative energy, or seeking to deepen your appreciation for the English language, I'm committed to supporting you every step of the way.

Hi, my name is Neha and I'm a first year dental student at Kings College London. Having recently completed my GCSEs & A levels as well as experience through mentoring younger students, I understand how to achieve the top grades and what resources are the most effective. I am currently teaching chemistry and maths and am looking forward to helping students excel and reach their full potential. I am currently a first-year Dental student at King’s College London, where I am developing a strong foundation in both the scientific and clinical aspects of dentistry. I completed my A levels in Biology, Chemistry, and Maths at The Latymer School and my GCSEs at North London Collegiate School. Having recently gone through these exams, I have a clear understanding of effective revision strategies and the best resources to use for success. My experience mentoring younger students has strengthened my ability to explain complex topics clearly and adapt my teaching style to suit different learning needs.
