Halla

Hi, my name is Halla. I attend King`s College London to study Medicine and aspire to become a excellent doctor one day!

Willing to travel: 5 miles

Experience: Many of my A-level and GCSE lessons follow a comprehensive structure to maximise the students learning and engagement.

I start by running through the content and explaining concepts. This is also an opportunity for any questions/discussion.

Then I provide the student with relevant worksheets/exam questions so they can apply what they have just learnt. This is followed by marking their work together. This means the student is able to recognise themselves what they need to spend more time on.

Finally, me and the student do a proven method called ‘active recall’. This is when I prompt them with different questions which cover the content they are required to memorise. This is essential as it tests their memory and is the key step in learning. It also allows us to see which parts they find harder or more difficult to remember. It also means that as a tutor I can see which concepts to go over again and explain in a easier way to understand.

Of course all students are unique so I adjust my lessons accordingly to ensure different learning styles are being addressed. I also always encourage the student to give me feedback or mention when they are finding stuff difficult.
