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.

About Me

I am a student currently on my year abroad in Lund, Sweden and I’m keen to tutor students as a part-time job while I’m studying. I am in the third year of my BA History degree at the University of York and have achieved A*s in English Literature, History and Psychology A-Levels. I am a friendly, enthusiastic and hard-working student who has always gone above and beyond when it comes to academic achievement, reflected in my results at both GCSE and A-Level, and my ongoing success at university. I would love the opportunity to tutor a student who needs a little extra help to achieve their academic goals or who simply wants to improve their essay writing or analytical skills.

I feel comfortable tutoring History and English from GCSE up to A-Level as my qualifications have provided me with an excellent base of knowledge, while my time at university in particular has allowed my critical thinking, research and essay writing skills to flourish. My approach would of course be tailored to the needs of the student and I am open to learning about and implementing more specific methods of teaching and examination that their school might prefer.

Education

BA History with a Year Abroad - currently a student at the University of York
A Level History, English Literature and Psychology
10 x GCSEs including English and History

Experience / Qualifications

Having been tutored myself at school, I understand the value of a supportive academic figure who can listen to your concerns and work through them with you in real-time. I have mentored a first-year History student at university, helping to review and comment on her essay work, help with questions about academic reading and note-taking, and generally providing support during her first year at university. I have also worked in activity planning and tour guiding for international students aged 12-18 as part of a study holiday company in London. I therefore feel that I have gained experience in different ways to engage young people with education, which can be both challenging and rewarding.

Succeed in the DELF or DALF (French diploma) - Private preparation sessions | [IN LINE]
My name is Fawzi, and I am a French language teacher. Since 2012, I have been giving private lessons online. My objective is to support learners towards success in the DELF (Diploma of Studies in French Language) or the DALF (Advanced Diploma in French Language), as well as the TCF (French Knowledge Test). I have had the pleasure of helping many students of different nationalities through my online courses. For me, helping enthusiasts practice the French language is an enriching experience, because I understand the importance of success in the lives of ambitious people. I speak Arabic, French, Spanish, a little English and a little Turkish. During my classes, I explain concepts in French, Arabic or Spanish, depending on your preference. At the end of each session, I offer exercises to do as homework, in order to identify your gaps and monitor your progress. Here are some essential points to know about the DELF and DALF: - The DELF (Diploma in French Language Studies) and the DALF (Advanced Diploma in French Language) are two high-quality official diplomas. They are aligned with the levels of the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages and cover the following six levels, from the most basic to the most advanced: A1, A2, B1, B2, C1, C2. These diplomas are suitable for all ages and all audiences. - The DELF B2 and, increasingly, the DALF C1, provide access to French, European or French-speaking universities, as well as certain Grandes Ecoles. If you plan to take DELF or DALF exams, or if you want to improve your level, do not hesitate to book your sessions with me to start preparation. I am available !
