I first became passionate about writing in Year 8 when I began to see my writing improve from using basic connectives. Suddenly, I felt in control of my words and it became easier to interpret different view points and analyse varying interpretations. This gave me confidence in a lot of subjects as I started my GCSEs. More specifically, I began...
I believe that the most important virtue in a tutor is the ability to empathise with a student's cognitive position. When teaching I guide a student through the mental steps needed to accomplish the goal of the lesson. I typically spend much of a lesson in dialogue with the student. I break this up with exercises to embed and reinforce key...
My approach to tutoring is very similar to the way in which I study myself. I will follow the mark scheme and course content carefully for optimum success in exams. Second to this, I encourage wider reading and discussion to consolidate an understanding of the course content used in class. With exam revision I remind students to identify relevant and...
It’s a priority for me to tailor my tuition to each individual student. This involves adapting to their preferred learning style and accommodating any other specific needs or issues. Different students learn in different ways and it is important for teachers and tutors to be aware of this. By ensuring that I remain conscious of this aspect of the teaching...
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...
I am a well-prepared tutor, and adopt a planned and practical approach to tutoring, with an ability to provide students with clear learning objectives, as well as assess and evaluate their progress. I can adapt to the student’s preferred learning style, and incorporate a range of interactive teaching strategies to promote student participation and independent thinking. I have excellent communication...
My teaching philosophy is grounded in self-reflection, creativity and self-efficacy. I believe that as a tutor my role is to help students explore their place in the world, embrace diversity and encourage critical and independent thinking. I view learning as a process that should include personal as well as intellectual growth. Not only do I consider these principles central to...
Every student is an individual. Of course, that's easy to say but in practice, sometimes teachers can use the same approach with everyone they teach. I start with a blank page: My first priority is to get to know students; what they feel they need and what concerns them. I design every programme of study from scratch, in consultation with...
I aim to tailor my classes to the needs of each student, as everyone has different strengths, weaknesses and ways of going about their study. I seek to provide an encouraging and enjoyable space to learn and discuss the key topics in ways that are easily memorable. I am happy using both the students’ textbooks and recommending alternative...
Philosophy involves thinking very carefully about hard questions and then expressing your take on them, clearly and persuasively. My aim is to equip students with the skills that allow them to do this—whatever topic they might be studying. Every student is different, but in each case my number one goal is to help students take pleasure in thinking for themselves...
