Aloysius

Experienced tutor and Philosophy, Politics, and Economics undergraduate at University of Oxford
Online tutoring! Through Zoom - super easy to setup, I am experienced with it.

I bring three tenants to my tutoring: proficiency, engagement, and dedication. Firstly, students are confident that I know every bit of the material, which is really important in giving them the confidence to ask questions and understand new ideas. Secondly, I constantly engage with my students. I ask them questions, present ideas in relevant examples, and encourage them to problem-solve in detail. Thirdly, I am committed to seeing tangible improvement from my students. That means I`ll spend time and patience in communicating critical concepts, whether that means nailing down ideas within lessons, scouting out useful reading, or running overtime, to make sure my students fully learn.

Current PPE undergraduate at the University of Oxford.
Can give lessons to anyone from GCSE to first-year undergraduate standard, including A-Level and IB.
Enjoy teaching any students willing to learn, really good at helping students to `come out of their shell`, that is those that are a bit shy or inexperienced with problem-solving - getting them to analyse and think critically.

Format is similar to a tutorial format that one would experience at university.

Availability: Available upon request.

Willing to travel: 50 miles

Experience: Worked with Leading Education, an international education consultancy focused on helping ambitious high school students to gain entry to elite universities worldwide. Tutored a class of 5 students at A-level age with course content at undergraduate standard. Helped each one to gain an excellent fundamental knowledge of economics, in preparation for their upcoming Oxbridge applications. Over 40 contact hours given for the individuals.

Tutored 2 students over 20 hours to complete the GCSE History course. Both achieved level 9 standards (improved from predictions of 7/8). Both were quite shy in nature, encouraged them to be more confident with critical concepts in the history course.

Tutored 1 student over 20 hours in a Philosophy Extended Essay for the IB Diploma. Achieved a Grade A. Content of medical ethics. Provided content for an entire IB Diploma module on Ethics within those weeks.
