Hi! I am experienced in tutoring languages and every student I’ve tutored has managed to raise their grades up significantly. A little bit about myself, I was born in Italy and raised in Venezuela for most of my childhood and I also lived in the United States for a year in high school. I am currently a student here in the UK doing molecular and cellular biology, but overall I’ve always been a very good student across all subjects, so even though languages are my main focus when tutoring, I am capable of assisting with many other subjects aside from perhaps math and chemistry which I myself have been tutored in before. We all need a little bit of help sometimes and there’s no shame in admitting that.

I believe there are no bad students but that as everyone is different sometimes it takes a little more work to understand what works for each of us. I always make sure that the students I tutored finish a session feeling confident in their own abilities and I like to reassure them throughout our time together that they will do well, because taking the first step of seeking a tutor already speaks for their desire to do well in school. The students I’ve tutored before have ranged from various ages, including my own peers who at the time were around 16 (I am currently 20), 14 year olds and younger children from 8 to 10. However, while age does play a small part in my approach, I think the most important part of being a good tutor is understanding what way each student needs to be taught, and I can guarantee you that with my instruction you will be acing your exams.
