Isabella Thompson

Hi! My name is Isabella, a recent graduate of Durham University, and I am passionate about providing students with tools to unlock their potential and achieve the top grades.

I am experienced in Maths tutoring (KS1-GCSE) and any level of English, Religious Studies and Politics tutoring from KS3 to A level. I achieved A*s in English language, English literature, Religious Studies and Maths at IGCSE, and A*s in Religious Studies, English literature and Politics at A level, which hopefully provides you with confidence that I can lead you in the right direction!

I firmly believe that everyone is capable of improving their results - the key is to learn what the examiner is looking for and build a framework around that which you can apply to every question, giving you security in what you write.

You can count on me to listen to your specific problem areas, all I require is a bit of information about the text book or examination board your school is providing you with. Whether it be embedding quotations into essays, spelling and grammar or pinpointing key information within a text, I will provide bespoke exercises that commit helpful habits to memory and ultimately increase your marks. You will have my full support in everything you do in a session with me as well as plenty of opportunity for feedback about what does/does not work for you.

It is not just about grades, however. I am extremely aware that the enjoyment of a subject is the most important part of learning, which is commonly inhibited by the difficulty to find it easy. I want to help you break this disheartening cycle that makes you dread your timetable.

I truly hope to have the pleasure of tutoring you and in the meantime: happy studying!
