Tutoring Experience

Over the past five years, I've tutored more than 70 students in A-Level and IGCSE English. My multilingual approach has been instrumental in broadening their worldviews and improving their language comprehension. I've seen students exceed their expected grades, but most rewarding is watching them discover a love for English literature and language.

Tutoring Approach

I believe that a successful tutoring approach is personalized and interactive. My first goal is to understand each student's unique learning style, strengths, and areas that need improvement. From there, I craft bespoke lesson plans that engage and challenge. I use various pedagogical strategies, like peer learning, gamification, and real-world applications, to enhance their understanding. I also integrate the cultural aspects of my multilingualism into lessons, offering global insights into English literature and language. During exam periods, we focus on exam strategies, essay writing techniques, and text analysis. I aim to create a nurturing environment where students feel free to ask questions and make mistakes, and leave not only with a thorough understanding of their coursework but also with a newfound appreciation for the English language.
