Across all of the different subjects I teach, I always notice the same thing: the main difficulty that learners encounter is getting overwhelmed by what they're trying to learn. It could be that there seems to be simply too much material to cover; it could be that the concepts seem too difficult; it could be that the whole thing causes...

As an individual, I am enthusiastic, determined and a real ā€˜people personā€™. Having sat exams every year for the past 8 years, and continuing to do so I feel I am immersed in the challenges of modern academia and this will serve as a real advantage in my approach to my tutees.

I was brought up in the French system which focuses on method and logical rigor. My sessions are therefore organized, and I usually set a program for each session, based on my tuteeā€™s strengths and weaknesses.

I work with tutees to help them develop the skills needed to acquire and deploy knowledge in a given subject, as well as to know how to resolve an aspect of a subject which...

I am passionate about teaching, because I think that passing on knowledge is always incredibly fulfilling. When I teach, I know that I can help others understand concepts that I have mastered. One of my most satisfactory teaching experiences and one that illustrates my approach to tutoring is when I helped my younger cousin improve her English language performance and...

I strongly hold that before any progress can be made, the tutee must realise that they are not alone. Getting to know my tutees - what drives and inspires them when they are at their most relaxed - is integral to enabling them to become motivated learners. It is my role to be there to encourage each step of the...
