As a graduate of a world-leading University and a member of staff at an outstanding grammar school, I am an incredibly hard working, dedicated individual, who has not only the academic, but also the personal qualities to be a real asset to any school community. I have over 5 years of experience teaching Russian and German to students across the country working towards A Level and beyond to Degree level. Many of my students went on to achieve levels 8 and 9 at GCSE and several of my A Level students have gone on to study languages at Oxbridge with credit to my flexible teaching style and commitment to their personal goals. This experience is supplemented by my passion for working with young people: I am an individual who is never complacent with my own knowledge and constantly strive to stretch the bounds of my teaching and learning strategies. Each lesson will be catered to the student's needs and I am a very flexible, understanding tutor who aims to help each student achieve their potential.
