I like to focus on the areas and components that you find trickiest, preparing personalised lessons based on our sessions and your feedback. Our online lessons will be conducted over Zoom and will be constructive and lively in a concentrated 40 minute slot. I will pass on all the tips and tricks that I used to achieve an A* (96%) at A-level in German. We won’t sit in silence for long periods of time, but I may ask you to complete some exercises that I provide in order to hone your skills. I have experience tutoring other students from my time in sixth form, where I helped to launch a school-wide peer tutoring programme that allowed younger students to learn from older and more experienced sixth formers. I also conducted my own personal tutoring with a German GCSE student, whose grade I raised from a 6 to an 8 between his Year 11 Mocks and GCSE exams. Above all, I am here to help and would be happy to answer or solve any questions and problems you have to do with German to the best of my ability. I look forward to working with you.
