Experience
I have tutored for several years. I was an A level tutor at Greenehad college while a student there; I recieved the highest A level marks for this subject in the country. I have been invited back to Greenhead several times and given lectures/private tuition on advanced grammar and child language acquisition. At Lancaster University I tutored English to native speakers of Mandarin Chinese, I also did this in Beijing China. Since moving to London in 2016, I was tutoring a range of subjects, focusing on English Language, Linguistics and Psychology. I have taught undergraduate courses at University College London. I have supervised and marked undergrad and masters assignments and dissertations for the past 5 years.
I think I am able understand student's specific needs in order to explain things in a way that they can comprehend. I absolutely love seeing someone's face light up when they finally grasp something that they have been struggling with!
