About Me

I am currently a Sixth-Form student at Brampton Manor Academy, studying English Literature, History and Religious Studies, and an AS-Level in Sociology. As well as having majority grades 9 to 7 in my GCSE's, I am a current Cambridge University applicant, for a history degree. Although, I do not have any specific teaching experience, I have worked as a mentor for over 2 years now, helping students confidence in subjects significantly rise, drastically changing grades. I specifically focus on tutoring GCSE's, helping students with learning difficulties. Furthermore, my passion for humanities subjects has led me to receive many super-curricular opportunities from Oxbridge, which has enlightened me on various topic, which can help applicants for a wide range of subjects. As a student committed to achieving my academic goals, I hope to support others in doing the same!

Thomas
Homework help and private lessons English/Mathematics/Physics/Programming/History/French
Above all, I adapt to the method that best suits the student by preparing as much material as possible in advance (if possible visual or which facilitates memorization). If necessary, I add modified exercises but sufficiently close to the exams or to what the teachers/examiners are looking for. When it comes to languages, I focus on participation, thematic role-play and learning created around the student's exam or final goal (IELTS, TOEFL, ...). I can help primary, secondary or higher education/adult students depending on their needs. Having provided homework help alongside my studies and also as a summer job for many years, I can attest to extensive experience in this area. In addition to traditional support, I have also been able to support a large number of students with special needs (ADHD, etc.) and am therefore more than capable of adapting to any methodology required. If I am a teacher, it is above all to allow my students to achieve the goal they set for themselves, whether it is to succeed in an exam or in the more or less long term to integrate a selective school. I will give the necessary energy so that they can realize their dreams.

1 to 1 History or English Literature tutoring for secondary-school students
1-1 tutoring sessions aimed to help students improve their grades and essay writing skills. Ideal for students needing a bit of extra help in preparing for their GCSE or A-Level exams. I adopt a friendly and encouraging method of tutoring which focuses on what the student needs from me in order to make progress. I can, for instance, look at students' past assignments, tests and exams in order to give feedback, identify weak points and make improvements together in the session. We can also read and analyse texts together, if this is something that might help improve their ability to pick out themes, make comparisons and critically think about the literature. For History classes, we can, for example, focus on planning longer essay questions and / or doing source analysis - picking apart a source and assessing its purpose, content and value. English Literature texts that I know particularly well include Macbeth, Othello, A Midsummer Night's Dream, Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde, A Streetcar Named Desire, The Great Gatsby, Atonement, An Inspector Calls, Hard Times, and Keats's Poetry. History subjects I have a particularly strong knowledge in include Revolutionary Russia 1850-1950 and the 17th Century English Civil Wars. However, I also have a broad knowledge of many different historical topics and periods, including the British Empire, colonisation and decolonisation in Africa, Enlightenment Europe and 20th Century America. I will always try my best to integrate the methods of teaching and marking that the student's school prefers.

Learn Armenian language, grammar, literature and history in Western Armenian.
Western Armenian is a language that has been put in the endangered language's list, and I personally believe that such a rich language should never die. I believe that I am taking a huge initiative to be one of the individuals who'll try to save this important language from disappearing. I try to make my lessons as interacting as possible. The lessons and exercises will be provided through PowerPoint presentations. I try to listen to my student in order to prepare the lesson plan together, according to his needs and preferences. I've always been the smiling and friendly tutor who makes the student comfortable during the lessons. I believe that in order to reach the students you need to understand them also emotionally and psychologically.

Burcu
BA and MA history graduate to help with history lessons and additionally cooking
Hi! As a history student, I’ve developed strong study skills and effective methods for breaking down complex topics, which I now adapt to help my students learn in a way that suits them best. While I don’t have formal teaching experience, my academic journey has given me a solid foundation in research, organisation, and clear communication—all of which I bring to my lessons. I will design my lessons to be tailored and interactive. In the first session, I like to start with a conversation to understand your goals, what you’re currently working on, and where you feel you need the most help. This allows me to prepare resources and materials specifically for your needs, ensuring our time together is as productive as possible. My teaching method focuses on creating a structured yet flexible format. Typically, I am thinking to begin by explaining key concepts or reviewing material you might be struggling with. From there, we’ll work on practice questions—some we’ll tackle together, and others you’ll try on your own to build confidence and independence. This approach not only helps reinforce what you’ve learned but also ensures that you feel supported throughout the process. (If you have school homework, we can work through it during our lessons, ensuring you fully understand the material. Additionally, I can provide extra practice papers or assignments for you to complete between sessions if you’d like to deepen your understanding.) I’m here to support you every step of the way. My ultimate goal is to help you feel more confident in your abilities, whether we’re working on understanding challenging topics, completing assignments, or preparing for exams. Learning doesn’t have to be stressful—it can be engaging and even enjoyable with the right approach! Apart from being a history graduate I’m passionate about sharing the rich and diverse flavors of Turkish, Cypriot, and Greek cuisine! Growing up in Cyprus, I developed a deep love for the culinary traditions of the region, and now I enjoy teaching others how to recreate these delicious dishes at home. Whether you’re a beginner or a seasoned cook, I’m here to guide you with easy-to-follow recipes, tips, and techniques. From hearty stews to fresh mezes, I aim to bring the vibrant tastes of the Mediterranean to your table.

Tutoring for A-level History, Politics, and GCSE History
From a personal perspective, social sciences, regardless of GCSE or A-level, require enormous reading and understanding of the texts, critical thinking and writing. These are crucial to students' performances for their exams. With a background in A-level History and Politics, I have designed this course with the purpose of helping GCSE and A-level students understand the texts they are required to read and grasp the essential logical reasoning and language needed to structure their essays.
