About Me
Hi! I'm James, and I'm a current third-year English student at KCL. Teaching has been a lifelong passion for me, and so has my love and appreciation for literature.Studying with me is very much an individual experience based on whatever you need; for instance, if you love to read, I can send you more material, if you need help with essay writing, we can go through rubrics and my previous first-class A-Level and University essays - it's very much up to you. I'm kind and patient and understand that literature isn't always everyone's cup of tea, but my goal would be to get you as a student to fall in love with at least one piece before our time together ends.

We offer Spanish and Italian lessons at a native level and always make sure to keep a high-quality learning. Do you need a last minute lesson to prepare you for an examination?

I am most familiar with the AQA teaching syllabus. Ultimately, I want to provide personalised support to help students:
-Understand classic and contemporary literary works
-Develop critical thinking and analytical skills
-Prepare for GCSE, A-Level, and other academic exams
-Improve essay writing techniques
Specifically this might include support with some of the following:
-Breaking down literary texts
-Analysing themes and literary devices
-Practicing close reading techniques
Hiba
Learner English for beginners and all other learnersAcquiring additional languages will broaden your horizons; it will enable you to interact with a greater number of individuals and enhance your social network, while also enhancing critical thinking skills from diverse perspectives that may result in significant career opportunities. Cultural awareness, improved communication skills and enhanced academic performance are just a few of the benefits of learning new languages or improving your language skills.
For an academic student, I would monitor their current classes, design exercises to enhance their proficiency and concentrate on identifying and ameliorating their weaknesses.
In a lesson for a volunteer learner, I would prioritise speaking practice, since the pronunciation of certain syllables is essential.
Hafsa
English help for student in ks2 and ks1 in primary schoolHello! I'm Hafsa, a passionate educator from East London. With a strong background in teaching primary school children, I specialize in helping young learners grasp the fundamentals of English, including nouns, adjectives, verbs, and sentence construction. My love for language and teaching is evident in my enthusiastic approach to making learning both fun and engaging. I believe that every student has the potential to excel, and my goal is to inspire a love for learning that extends beyond the classroom.
I have a rich experience in tutoring primary school students, with a particular focus on English language fundamentals. In my previous role as a tutor, I guided students through the intricacies of grammar and vocabulary.
My approach involves interactive lessons that encourage students to explore the meanings of words and how they can be used effectively in sentences. I create a supportive environment where students feel comfortable asking questions and expressing themselves. This not only helps in their academic performance but also builds their confidence in using language.
I believe in a student-centered teaching philosophy, where understanding each child's unique learning style is key. I use a variety of teaching methods, including games, storytelling, and practical exercises, to keep lessons dynamic and interesting. My goal is to make each session enjoyable and educational, leaving a lasting impression that motivates students to continue learning.
Parents can trust that I am not only knowledgeable but also approachable and patient. I prioritize clear communication and regular updates on progress, ensuring that both students and parents are comfortable and satisfied with the learning process.
I specialize in teaching children aged 5-11, focusing on foundational English skills. My classes are designed to help students:
Understand Basic Grammar: Identifying and using nouns, adjectives, and verbs correctly.
Sentence Construction: Crafting well-formed sentences for both written and spoken communication.
Vocabulary Building: Expanding their lexicon and understanding word meanings in various contexts.
I have a thorough understanding of the primary school syllabus and am familiar with common examination formats. My experience includes preparing students for standardised tests and assessments, such as the Key Stage 1 and Key Stage 2 in the UK. I use materials and practice tests from reputable sources, ensuring students are well-prepared and confident when facing their exams.
To get started, I offer a friendly introductory session where we can discuss your child's specific needs and goals. Whether your child needs help catching up, staying on track, or getting ahead, I'm here to provide the support they need. Let's work together to unlock your child's full potential!

English class - for native speakers and those learning English as a second languageA comprehensive English class for beginners to advanced! Taught by a native English speaker and lessons can be in Italian or French. We will be speaking English for most of the class, you will have speaking practice every lesson as well as listening, reading and writing which I will correct and mark. We will have grammar lessons and I will explain common mistakes you make, as well as taking you through complicated pronunciation or grammar rules.
I have an excellent understanding of language, I grew up speaking English and Italian, and I learnt French at school, so I understand how language should be taught and what some common difficulties are. I am also learning Turkish and hopefully soon I will be able to teach in Turkish.

French: written/oral expression, grammar, conversationDo you want to start learning French but have never learnt it before? Or maybe you want to perfect your understanding of French grammar, or your capacity to express yourself clearly, spontaneously and with confidence in French? Or work on pronunciation, perhaps improve your accent and learn more about French culture?
I can help you with all of these, and not only because I was born and raised in France: after getting my Master's Degree in Lingustics and Anthropology from the School for Advanced Research in Paris - at the time I was also teaching private classes of French and English to high school and university students - I moved to the UK and studied theatre at the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland. There I worked on the skills any speaker needs to communicate clearly and convincingly: diction, voice projection, etc.
These two approaches - linguistics, and theatre work - give me a strong foundation from which to help any student learn French. So jump on: we'll build a learning program tailored to your needs and make sure that the lessons are both dense and fun.
