Hi! I aim to tailor my lessons to the needs of my students, using their particular learning styles to maximise the benefits of their studying. I think that it is especially important to recognise that no two learners are exactly alike. Identifying what helps you to understand and enjoy a topic is the key to being able to understand and enjoy any subject! I like to have interactive and creative classes that allow my students to see the practical application of what they're learning. I use a mix of videos, reading, writing and other activities to help my students to really understand the topics.
Are you preparing for an exam? Then let's practise some past papers and use marking schemes to identify how to get the top marks!
Are you learning to speak English for work? Then let's practise some vocabulary and sentence structures that you will need to communicate with your colleagues or clients.
Are you struggling to keep up in Maths or Science because it seems too difficult to understand? Let's prove that you can do it, by explaining it simply in terms of something you already know!
I have worked with a wide range of ages, from small children to adults. I started tutoring online over three years ago. I have taught Maths for Primary and Secondary Schools (GCSE, Junior Certificate, Leaving Certificate), Science for Secondary Schools (GCSE, A-Levels, Junior Certificate) and English (Junior Certificate, Leaving Certificate, English as a Foreign Language). I love seeing my students progress in skills and grow in confidence!
I hope that I can help you to reach your goals.
