My Passion & How I Inspire
I love learning! Mostly about new cultures, languages and ways of being, but in general I am such a learning freak, and I try to pass this enthusiasm onto all of my students, regardless of their level.
When it comes to teaching languages, students often seem to lack self-confidence and that is what gets in the way of them speaking. The most important thing when learning a language is to commit errors out loud - the more errors you commit, the more you learn. This is why it is extremely important to me to create connection with the student to allow them to practice in a safe space where all of their errors are more than welcome!
When it comes to other subjects that I tutor, such as Psychology, Sociology and Anthropology, I find curiosity to be the most loyal helper. As these subjects are more about the way we approach and understand certain situations, than the situations themselves, to spark curiosity in the student is the best way to get them engaged and thinking!
I am able to help in all sort of situations. It could be a young students struggling with GSCE Spanish speaking, or an A-level/graduate student needing help with an analysis of a text or understanding the essence of the essay they have just read - I am here to share all the tricks I have.
