Ailie R

 

£20.00-40.00Academic tutor

I am an experienced tutor living and studying in Edinburgh studying for a MA in Politics and International Relations. I have tutored multiple pupils before and in all situations the pupil has performed exceedingly better than their prelim grade. I went through the Scottish education system myself and I achieved strong A passes in all of the subjects that I offer tutoring in. The exams I took were all from the new system of National 5s, new Highers and new Advanced Highers so I have a full understanding and experience of the system including the assignment and various assessments. Alongside working as a tutor, I am the Editor-in-Chief of one of the student papers based at the University of Edinburgh so I offer excellent proof reading and editing of essay plans, essays and assignments.

Chenyao C

Beginner, Intermediate English as a Foreign Language, Mandarin, Chinese tutor in Morningside, Edinburgh, Lothians, Scotland

£23.00-35.00Academic tutor

Hi, my name is Chenyao. I am a native mandarin Chinese speaker. I have lived the in Edinburgh for the past 10 years. My professional background is in business and international trade. However I love languages and teaching. I started private tutoring in my university days and carried on ever since in my spare time. My clientele for Mandarin Chinese tutoring are mostly adults who have a fond interest in Chinese culture, or a work connection with Chinese market/companies. Although occasionally I do have younger students too. I believe the best way to learn a language is to learn through context. I therefore use a lot of examples in my teaching, and I endeavor to create a lot of opportunities for students to speak during the sessions. Students feel stimulated and fulfilled when they finish a session. Currently I also teach speaking English as a foreign language through a Chinese online platform. I look forward to helping you having fun while learning Mandarin or English as a foreign language.

Alex I

 

£15.00-20.00Academic tutor

I am nearing completion of my PhD in Economics, and in addition I have a deep interest in and knowledge of Mathematics. My maths teachers were fantastic, and I want to be able to generate the enthusiasm for Maths and Economics that my teachers created for me, for others. I like to bring a relaxed and friendly approach to my tutorials so all my students feel calm and at ease. I also make the topics as interesting as possible. Before lessons, I would appreciate if you could outline what specific topics you would like to learn, so I can prepare lessons of increasing difficulty that I can run through with you to help build up your confidence with Maths and/or Economics. As we get more confident with topics, I'd like to go through an example exam question to measure your progress and to give you an example of questions you would be likely to see in your tests. I am currently available at any time, most days.
