Information about Hamish
Hello! I am here to help. I am an experienced tutor, and I know there is a way for every student to get more out of their learning. School and university work often feels rushed, but with me, you will have all the time and space you need to get to grips with your subject. Together, we will talk through and break down each aspect of your subject you are having difficulty with.
I am an experienced tutor of English Literature, which I teach up to degree level. I have given lots of help students taking their A levels in History, English Language or Philosophy, and I can give you really solid techniques to help you approach essay questions, substantiate your own ideas and convey them in the kind of well expressed written work that exam boards award high marks to.
I am also super experienced with helping students improve their scores in maths, science, and verbal/non verbal reasoning in their Eleven-plus, Key Stage 3 and GCSE exams.
I am also a trained TESOL teacher with a CELTA qualification (the best initial TESOL qualification).
I understand what it is like to fail to get the best out of yourself. I also know how to respond. An unfocussed second year of my degree threatened my overall mark. I then made specific changes to my essay writing technique and my time usage. These raised my marks to a 1st degree average for my third year, balancing my overall mark back up to a high 2:1.
I think this experience of significant improvement equips me to help you do the same, certainly more than someone who sailed through academia from the very start. Crucially, however, having worked with students with a range of learning disabilities, I know how to listen to you and engage with your train of thought surrounding a subject, rather than simply expect you to follow mine.
Availability: My availability is variable- please enquire!
Willing to travel: 20 miles
Experience: I have a degree in English Literature and Creative Writing, and over four thousand hours experience tutoring across a diverse range of subjects, from primary school up to A level.
