Levels and Subjects I teach Lower Level: All Sciences, Maths and English GCSE: Biology, Chemistry, Maths and English A-level: Biology, Chemistry and Maths Exam Board Experience: AQA, Edexcel, WJEC, 11+, private school entry exams Languages: English fluent French and Arabic at GCSE level SEND (special needs) Experience: Dyslexia, Physical health issues, Anxiety Preferred student age group: Primary and GCSE About me: Hi there! My name is Hafsa and I am a Dental student at the University of Manchester. My friends describe me as hardworking, dedicated and focussed. Science and Maths has a huge importance in my life, a lot of it to do with my degree but also because of an interest I have in me. Having attained AAA in Biology, Chemistry and Maths in A-Levels, and A*A* and a 9 in GCSE, I have developed from an outstanding student to an incredible tutor. In high school my English teachers always applauded my excellent english analytical skills as I acheived an 8 in GCSE, and I am looking forward to sharing these tips with students of my own. From my own journey, there has been many instances where I have taught myself content because the way the teacher taught me I just didnt understand. This made me an independent learner and encouraged me to reach my highest potential - not to meantion all the amazing tips and tricks I discovered and am excited to pass on to my students too. I have a vast experience of teaching, from volunteering experiences to jobs in different settings with tutoring - which helped me fine tune my teaching skills and made me really adaptable to different teaching styles. As a young tutor, the age gap between me and my students will be relatively small and will allow me to understand them much better, as well as make the lessons more fun and engaging as I know how to meet their needs.

🌟 Speak Spanish from Day One with a Friendly Local Through a Natural Approach 🌍 | Experienced Tutor | All Levels Welcome, Whether in Casual or Professional Enviroments🎯 Hola! I'm Kurt from Chile, and I would love to be your friendly guide to mastering Spanish. Here is a little bit about me so you can know me better: I’m passionate about languages 📚, content creation 📝📹, and traveling ✈. I love to connect my interests with my teaching in a very friendly and safe way. This is why my goal as a tutor is to guide you in your Spanish journey and help you gain confidence, regardless of your current level. After some years of working with different students (and also being a language learner myself), here is what you can expect from my lessons 👇🏻 ✅ Friendly, Real-Life Learning: I’m convinced that using the "natural approach" and "comprehensible input" is the best way to learn a language. My lessons focus on real-life situations to help you communicate confidently in Spanish. ✅ Immersive Focus: I focus on full immersion in Spanish, and show you how to keep practicing on your own, no matter your level or background. ✅ Customized Learning Plans: We’ll create a personalized learning plan based on your interests or professional goals. I’ll always give you feedback to ensure you're progressing in a way that matters to you. ✅ Resource Variety: From flashcards to interactive tasks, I’ll provide the materials you need based on your objectives. ✅ Ongoing Support: Whether in or out of class, I’m always available to guide you, ensuring your success at every stage. ✅ Adaptable Learning: I adjust lessons to suit your mood and needs. Whether you’re feeling low on energy and we switch to a fun activity, or you need to focus on a specific task, I’ll tailor the lesson to keep it engaging and effective. ✅ Flexible Scheduling: If you need to reschedule, I’ll do my best to find a new time that works for both of us so that we can keep your progress on track. Imagine yourself speaking Spanish confidently—whether it’s during your travels ✈, with friends and family ❤, or in a business setting 💼. Don’t let age, background, or beginner’s nerves stop you! Spanish is for everyone, and you’re no exception 💫. *I'm currently only teaching students older than 18 years old* *I'm able to teach Spanish to all levels independently of the goals and background* *As an English teacher I only teach EFL to adult students (students who are learning English as a language)* I studied at University, which led to two degrees: one as an English language specialist (grammar and phonology) and another as an English-Spanish Translator. I’m furthering my education daily to specialize in financial and mixology translation and become a better and more efficient Spanish tutor. In addition, I have an extra degree as a community manager which is not 100 % related to coaching. I specialise in teaching conversational Spanish to adults

English tutoring to improve grades and self-confidence
Studying English at school includes technical aspects of the language such as grammar and vocabulary, and English literature focuses on text analysis and creative writing.
English-related skills such as reading and writing are vital throughout school, regardless of the subject matter. Learning how to communicate your thoughts clearly boosts self-confidence, improves vocabulary and leads to better exam results.
GoStudent English tutors offer one-to-one lessons tailored to your child’s needs, helping them understand where their weaknesses are in their written work and working with them to improve their writing style.
The advantages of studying English
English is an essential subject in the national curriculum. All students are required to pass English exams at primary school and English makes up one of the three core GCSE subjects in secondary school.
Studying for an English and Literature A-level or an undergraduate or master's degree can be hugely rewarding. Not only will you learn a great deal about the language, you will also be introduced to radically different ways of understanding and explaining the world.
An English degree can open the door to a wide range of career opportunities in fields such as teaching, editing, journalism and law. There is also a growing market for teaching English as a second language either at home or overseas, where the demand might be higher.
English tuition at primary school
English tuition at primary school is an excellent way to prepare for the future. Studying reading and writing helps with English language skills in general, and learning about different authors and their works may very well ignite a passion for reading in your child, laying the foundation for study at a higher level.
English exam preparation and English revision classes
GCSE exams are the qualifications students take at the age of 16. GCSE English provides a solid foundation for studying humanities courses at a higher level, and skills taught include writing essays, reading comprehension and text analysis.
If your child choose to continue to study English Language and Literature at A-level, it's extremely important for them to achieve a solid GCSE foundation.

Working with an English tutor on a one-to-one basis boosts confidence and passion for the subject, too.
