Maria
English as a Foreign Language for Adults and Kids, all levels
A philologist with MPhil degree from Cambridge University and PhD from the Russian University of Humanities, I have been teaching Russian and English, as well as humanities, since the early 2000s, both offline (at the time it was the only way!) and online. Background in journalism and wide international experience I lived and worked in India and in the United States before moving to the UK have helped me to familiarize with different educational systems and taught me how to work with people of various backgrounds, cultures and interests. Working with both adults and children, I am always looking for ways to arouse students' interest in a subject and encourage them to ask questions. Each student has unique needs, so all my classes are tailored, and I am doing my best to make our joint learning adventure as exciting as possible. I am eternally grateful to my own school and university teachers, as well as to private tutors. Without them my dreams about Cambridge University, traveling the world and having all those experiences that I have now would remain only dreams. Every time when my students thank me for helping them to achieve their learning goals, I feel that my own teachers, many of whom are already not with us, are smiling. This is the best thing about this job.

Priscilla Maguette
French & English lessons in writing, speaking and more
I specialise in tutoring French and/or English for school just as well for higher education levels or different age groups. As a native speaker in both languages and as a linguaphile who took interest in learning other languages such as Spanish and Arabic, I am aware of the struggles that might come with attempting to learn a new language. For my students, I would start off by evaluating where they are at in terms of their level of speaking just as well as writing, in order to know what to work on and what they've already mastered. I would provide homework, just as well as challenges to place them in real life situations where they would have to use their skills and knowledge. In addition to this, providing a feedback on what they've accomplished, what needs further improvement and work.

Improve your English for Real Life and Live Better
Speaking English is just the start. After a while, you probably lose a bit of motivation for self-study. And maybe the price of a long course discourages you. You also probably want one to one classes. Why? Because you are now learning most of your English from real life situations, when the pressure is on and time is short. You probably need time and space to go back to these situations, that job interview, that health appointment, that social event. This is what we will do. I have been in your situation. Different country, different language but same feeling of stress and struggle. But also enjoyment at learning something new. So keep going and join up for these classes.

Maths and English Tutoring from 11+ up to A-Level. LAMDA/ Drama Audition prep.
I am looking to tutor English and Maths at any ability up to A-Level standard, and any subject up to 13+ (including verbal/non verbal reasoning). I achieved all A* at GCSE and A-Level. I have done a child protection course, a first aid course, and I am DBS checked. I also have a TEFL qualification. I have had a lot of experience working with children and teenagers both in a tutoring environment and others(ski instructing/dance and drama coaching). I am also able to provide assistance with LAMDA exams (or any UK acting qualifications) having gained distinctions through to Grade 8. I’ve also had experience with the National Youth Theatre, so can help with audition prep.

Kevin
Polyglot specialist with 9 years of experience. German in speed mode. Level A1 to C2. No school teaching.
I offer you a German course that is not like the others. There are two types of courses. Here is an analogy to illustrate their respective approaches: If you travel back and forth by train every day and don't have time to wait long at the platform, imagine that you only have two options: 1) Memorise the timetable. 2) Realise that the train comes every ten minutes and that a train arrives for example at 7:00 a.m. In school pedagogy, in textbooks and in normal lessons, the first approach is used - in the course I am offering you, it is the second approach because it is more economical and faster. My offer is aimed at both pupils and adults who want to learn the German language without time-consuming detours through the madness of fruitless school methods. Learning is easy, but unlearning things that have become bad habits is extremely difficult. This makes it all the more important to learn the right reflexes as early as possible. Whether you are a beginner or an advanced learner, with my customised lessons you will greatly accelerate the learning process while having a positive attitude. I offer German lessons for individuals or groups (2 to 5 people). The methods are based on cognitive science and historical linguistics in particular. My modular programme can be adapted on a case-by-case basis. The converging point of these modules is your independence in spontaneous conversations in real life. What will not be covered in the course: learning lists of verbs; learning lists of nouns with articles; learning words with their translations; flashcards; doing school exercises; following the syllabus of a booklet; imposing the English grammar on the German language. What is particularly important to me: to motivate my student and to give him a learning rhythm; to encourage his creativity; to befriend him with the language; the letters and their sounds; to strengthen the memory by training the phonological loop; to teach blueprints instead of memorising sentences; to explain how the language works in order to make my student independent as quickly as possible; to eliminate common preconceptions, such as that 'der' would mean masculine and 'die' feminine, that the accusative would be a direct complement and the dative an indirect complement, that verbs would be irregular, that declension would be random and therefore would have to be learnt with each verb...; to put practice at the centre and only deal with grammar where necessary. A first lesson will give you a sound idea of my pedagogy.

I offer special sessions that meet your needs and objectives to successfully complete your DELF (Diplôme d'Etudes en Langue Française) or DALF (Advanced Diploma in French Language), including the TCF (French Knowledge Test). I have been supporting many interested people of different nationalities thanks to online courses since 2018; For me, helping enthusiasts to practice the French language is a very good experience because I understand that success is a capital objective in the life of ambitious people. I speak Arabic, French, Spanish, and also English. I explain my lessons in the language of your choice. And at the end of each session, I give lessons with exercises to do as homework to examine your gaps and monitor your progress. Here are some things to know about the DELF and DALF: The DELF (Diploma of Studies in French Language) and the DALF (Advanced Diploma in French Language) are two official and quality diplomas. They are harmonized on the levels of the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages. They include the following six levels, in ascending order: A1, A2, B1, B2, C1, C2. These two diplomas are suitable for all ages and all audiences. In addition, the DELF B2, and increasingly the DALF C1, allow students to enter French, European or French-speaking universities, and certain Grandes Ecoles. Will you have DELF or DALF exams to pass?

Maryam
Private lessons in Arabic and English to build my little champions from the beginning
My name is Mariam from the United Arab Emirates. I specialize in establishing children from 4 years old to third grade in Arabic and English subjects with more than seven years of experience in teaching. I love children and I have patience in understanding the needs of my young students. I establish them and teach them new words. My priorities are to explain in detail and in stages until the child acquires the information. I send the exercises to the guardian before the specified class time to print them for the child. If he has a printer, I contact the guardian at the end of the class to tell him about the level of their child with me. May God bless you, my little heroes 🤍
