Economics (ks3, gcse)
German (primary, ks3, gcse, adult-learner, a-level)
History (primary, ks3, gcse)
Latin (primary, ks3, gcse)
I am a student at Oxford and I am trying to pay my way through university. I am offering tutoring up to GCSE in all my A-level subjects, and up to A-level in German, which is part of my degree. I am also in this for the experience - I hope someday to be a teacher - and so I am more than happy to negotiate rates. I try to be enthusiastic and assiduous, and I will do whatever is necessary to help.
As far as teaching style is concerned, my general approach in languages would be an emphasis on a solid understanding of the grammar rather than the trotting out of set phrases, but this obviously depends on the tutee's level, and just how far they want to go in the language. For history and economics I would probably emphasise understanding the mechanics of an argument. However, once again, this all depends on the tutee, and I will do my best to adapt my teaching to their learning style, rather than trying to force them to adopt their learning style to meet my teaching.
Availability: Whenever.
Willing to travel: 20 miles
Experience: I have been in full time education for the past thirteen years, and as such have had rather more experience of teachers and teaching than I would like! I have worked with autistic children before, and in my last year my Upper Sixth German set occasionally helped our teacher with the younger classes. In addition to this, I have been tutoring GCSE German and History and CE Latin to several students of all abilities for about six months now, and always receive positive feedback.
Qualifications: I have 7 A*s and 3 As at GCSE.
My A-levels were History (A), German (A), Latin (A) and Economics (A*).
I am presently doing a degree in Law and German Law.
