Hi there! My name is Clara, and I am currently studying Philosophy at the University of St Andrews. I have been tutoring since 2023 and have taught more than 800 sessions through Edumentors, working with students of a wide range of ages, abilities and learning goals. My Tutoring Experience: Over the past few years, I have had the privilege of supporting students with different needs and aspirations. I believe that every student learns differently, so I tailor my sessions to the individual - whether that means breaking down a challenging topic, identifying gaps in knowledge, developing exam technique or simply helping a student feel more confident in their abilities. In 2024, I also completed a training course in supporting students with SEND, which further developed my ability to communicate clearly, adapt my teaching style and create an inclusive and supportive learning environment. I want my students to feel comfortable asking questions and making mistakes without judgement. Building confidence is an important part of my approach, alongside helping students achieve their academic goals. I also hope to encourage a genuine enjoyment of learning, rather than focusing solely on exam results. Academic Background: • University: University of St Andrews - MA Philosophy • A-Levels: A*A*AA • AS-Level: A • GCSEs: Six grade 9s and four grade 8s Student Testimonial: “Clara tutored me for the last 3 weeks of my A-levels for religious studies A-level (OCR), starting a week before my first exam in this subject. She was incredibly helpful, allowing me to understand the key content that I needed to know and filled in any gaps in my knowledge and understanding. She also marked an essay I sent her and responded to any questions I sent through messages whilst revising outside of scheduled lessons. It was exactly what I needed to build some confidence just before the exams for this subject and helped me feel clearer about what I needed to do for revision and the exams to do my best. We got on really well and she was very non-judgmental and listened to me and my needs, I would highly recommend her for tutoring!” - Lizzie, A-Level student
