Elicia

I am a current graduate after studying International Law and Globalisation for 3 years at the University of Birmingham graduating with a degree classification of a 2.1 . I have done private tutoring in the past teaching subjects of English Literature and Business Studies after recieving a grade 8 and A* during my GCSE level. I have also taught 4 -8 year olds on English language, as well as being hands on with my nieces and nephews who are of that age group.

Willing to travel: 5 miles

Experience: I had volunteered during sixth form to help year 7 students read during tutor time. It was upon a one to one basis where I had helped students with a lower reading age than average to build their confidence to read, understand the context of books read and understand the information processed. I also worked with business GCSE students to revise content as I was currently studying Alevel business where I recieved an A*.

As someone who has struggled with working in class room environments I find the one to one approach as an effective method. Students work differently despite being assessed the same. I understand first hand how it can be difficult to understand subjects in large groups due to distractions and lack of focus. In the larger groups it is important for those involved to understand that their actions impact the learning of others, and there are consequences of being removed from the environment upon serious discipline. Therefore, establishing a trusting relationship with the students are important as well as creating engaging materials for all of the students to understand the content produced.
