Hi! I am Calypso. I am currently living in London and graduated from Oxford University in July, with a degree in Philosophy, Politics and Economics. I specialized in economics and political science while I was there.

I have lots of tutoring experience at all levels, from 11+ through to uni applications and Oxbridge admission tutoring.

I did Economics (A*), Maths (A), and Philosophy of Religion (A) at A-level and English up to an AS level. I have also done French and Spanish to reasonably high levels. I can also tutor GCSE level humanities!

I think the most important think if to first identify what you want to get out of the tutorial and what your targets ore. Are you working towards an exam? What are the particular topics you struggle with?

My method from there depends on the subject - each subject is best learnt in different ways! It may be presentations, ideas of how to make great flash cards, making chains of reasoning and flow charts and then most importantly (maybe in alter tutorials) QUESTIONS! I think going through questions is the best way to learn, step-by-step, talking through the student’s reasoning.

I have tutored lots at many different levels and find that I need to be dynamic and adjust to how the student learns best - this may be visual so I will make presentations, it may be verbal so I learn through discussion and questions or students may learn best through constant repetition. I tailor my approach depending on the student!
