Information about Laura
Hello and thanks for checking out my page. My name is Laura and I recently graduated from Oxford University after studying English Language and Literature at Undergraduate Level.
I look forward to bringing my enthusiasm and passion to whatever subject my tutee wishes to explore.
I have a wide range of interests outside of my immediate subject, I take a keen interest in music, art, theatre and film and have done some work on how these areas intersect with literature. I am an avid comedy fan, I enjoy improv and I am a member of the Oxford Revue.
Availability: I am flexible with timings and will usually be able to find a time that works for me and my client.
I have some availability during the evenings but prefer to tutor between 9am and 5pm. I have some availability during the weekends.
Willing to travel: 8 miles
Experience: I have been tutoring for the past three years and have gained ample experience working with students of various ages and abilities. I am comfortable tutoring at every level, but below is a list of my areas of expertise.
11+ and 13+
The 11 and 13+ exams are often very important milestones in a childs educational journey. Whether youre starting revision early, or you just want some extra help in the final push I can help. I enjoy helping students prepare for these exams, because the sessions are very focused. Its satisfying to have a clear goal in mind and work towards it. In sessions I switch the focus between; composition, comprehension, spelling, grammar and reading. I have experience with helping students apply for top schools.
GCSE and A-Level
I have worked with students at both GCSE and A-Level to support them in their studies, to help with essay writing and exam preparation.
Degree- Level
I have worked with several university students on their essays; its something I really enjoy. I have experience with; editing, proofreading, developing ideas, essay writing technique etc. I have found that online tutoring works really well for university students. All the students Ive worked with have achieved 1sts and high 2:1s in all their work.
Personal Statements
Ive worked with several students to craft excellent personal statements. This process is really fun! Personal statements are just that personal. I love working with students to find out what is unique about their relationship to their chosen subject. Once weve found this uniqueness, we work on crafting a statement that really makes them stand out from other candidates. All the students Ive worked with have received offers from all of their chosen universities!
Short-Term Basis
If you need help with an particular piece of written work, or with preparing for an exam or interview, do get in touch as Im happy to work on a short-term basis.
Oxbridge Entrance
I have successfully coached a student for her interview at Oxford to read English.
