Augustus

Online Maths and English Teacher

I AM A SPECIALIST 11+ TUTOR Having tutored a variety of subjects from primary to degree level for the last 3 years, (the last year of which was spent at a prestigious and accomplished tutoring agency in central London), it has become very apparent to me that there is no 'one-size-fits-all' when it comes to teaching. For a student to take significant steps forward in their academic ability, the blanket teaching of the classroom is often simply not enough. In my experience, one-on-one tutoring is far more conducive for academic advancement, as it provides a bespoke learning environment, completely personalised for the intellectual needs of that specific student. From the speed of lessons, to the resources used, to the focus on certain parts of the curriculum, all parts of my sessions are tailored to engender deeper understanding and comprehension of the relevant subject, as well as encouraging individual flare and originality in the individual.

Tutoring Experience

My main experience is teaching 11+, and I have over 3 years experience of tutoring, both in London and the South East. For the past year I have been working with an accomplished tutoring agency, teaching a vast range of ages and abilities: From 7 year olds with learning difficulties, to undergraduate university students.

I am up-to-date with the current exam syllabi, particularly with the new 1-9 IGCSE grading system, the 11+ Entry Exams, The Common Pretests, and the CIE Pre-U specifications.

I have successfully got children into the following schools:
London School of Economics
Tonbridge School
King's Wimbledon
Holmewood House
Yardley Court
Westminster Cathedral Choir School
Eton

Tutoring Approach

My methodology revolves around finding the most appropriate teaching style for each particular student - The huge benefit of private tuition over standard classroom teaching is that a bespoke and personalised learning programme can be devised for your child, which takes explicit account of their individual learning needs. If your child is to achieve their highest potential and truly excel in their academic capabilities, sometimes the blanket-teaching approach of the classroom is simply not enough. Contrastingly, I can provide a tutoring experience which involves getting to know your child's individual learning needs, and which methods are most suited to them, giving you detailed feedback throughout the while process.
