I am 33 years old and live in Cardiff. I achieved PGCE in 2016 and started personal tutoring since then. I approach teaching as facilitating and make learners independent in learning and planning. I have worked in the education sector as a TA, LSA and workshop facilitator over the last 10 years. During the lockdown time, I marked over 25000 words (assignments) and have had a high percentage of participation via remote teaching. I have taught GCSE, A-level, Access and SFFS Sociology and psychology. My specialism is in Sociology and Research methods and I have helped degree and master students for their dissertation and assignments specifically the analysis chapter.
I obtained a 2:1 honour degree in Social Sciences & Sociology in 2008. I achieved my degree from the best University in Iran- Tehran University- and a PGCE in 2010 from the University of South Wales. I also completed a master’s in education from Cardiff University in 2012. Recently, I taught Sociology and Psychology in Coleggwent and Whitchurch high school as a cover lecturer. Recent my teaching observation was graded a one which was rated as "outstanding". I have received great feedback from learners and my line managers especially I have been able to manage it well remotely during the lockdown period.
My passion for Humanities and Sociology has enabled me to become an adult lecturer in the UK since 2016. Meeting deadlines and time management have become one of my most valuable skills, as over the last 6 years I have had to meet deadlines for my degree, PGCE and my role as a tutor. Over the last year which I have started working in schools and colleges after personal tutoring for 3 years, I have learned many new skills in delivering sessions. In conclusion, I would like to apply the knowledge and skills gained during the last couple of years whilst working as a teacher for different schools and colleges.
I am a young and enthusiastic teacher and always try my best to focus on students` needs and not only delivering Sociology. I also use creative methods which suit students. I am a professional tutor, able to deliver various subjects of Humanities and ESL. My tutees during personal tutoring got higher marks and able to enter university. I had tutees who got C & B in Sociology A level while their last mark was just an E!
I also asked all my private students would they recommend me as a private tutor, and they said yes and gave me 4 out of 5 stars!
