Distinguished English Tutors in Edinburgh

I graduated with a First from Oxford last year for my undergraduate History BA. I am really passionate about teaching and this year I have engaged in a variety of teaching roles, including volunteering as an English teacher for 3 months in Nepal. I have tutored History and Geography A level, alongside English Lit and Language GCSE for over 3 years. My tutoring style primarily revolves around teaching technique based essay writing improvements, and my students are able to massively boost their academic performance by focusing on these core skills. I am keen to provide a personalised experience tailored to each individual student which best suits their individual needs and learning approach. As a graduate in History, I am extremely experienced in essay writing (having to had to write weekly essays over 3 years). Thus I am well equipped to provide useful feedback and tips for any aspiring humanities student. I always like to be available to any of my students outside of sessions in case they have any queries or requests for content.

My name is Lisa. I am a 1st year University of Cambridge Modern & Medieval Languages (French & German) Undergraduate student with a keen interest in literature (both foreign and English) and economics (mainly financial markets). I studied Economics, French, German and Russian at A-level and really enjoyed this combination. I am an avid reader, a travel enthusiast and a passionate linguist. I have taught many subjects at GCSE level in the past, however, I now prefer to specialise in teaching English and foreign languages, more precisely French and German, as well as Economics, for students of any age and level. My typical lesson duration is 1-1.5 hours, but I like to customise my teaching methodology and lesson length in accordance with my students' academic/personal goals. I would like to share my interests with you and help you uncover your academic potential, develop your personal skills and help you find your favourite academic pursuit. I look forward to meeting you and guiding you through your journey to achieving your goals!

Hello! I'm Kufre, currently a medical student at King's College London, with a strong passion for the sciences and a deep commitment to education. My academic journey is highlighted by my stellar grades: 11 A* at GCSE and 4 A*grades at A-level in Mathematics, Biology, Chemistry, and Physics. These achievements not only reflect my grasp of these subjects but also my dedication, perseverance, and the effective study skills I've developed over the years. Alongside my studies, I have gained over three years of experience as a tutor. I've had the privilege of supporting students from diverse backgrounds, ranging from those preparing for their 11+ exams to A-level pupils aiming for academic excellence. My versatile teaching methods are customised to fit each student's unique learning style, ensuring their comfort, engagement, and ultimately, their success. Beyond general tutoring, I am proficient in guiding students through the university entrance process, including the BMAT, UCAT, and interview preparation. Drawing from my personal experiences, I provide insightful guidance to help students navigate these demanding steps with confidence and ease. Outside of academia, I am an enthusiast of calisthenics, a discipline that has fortified my resilience, determination, and goal-setting abilities. I firmly believe that these traits are equally valuable in a learning environment, and I incorporate them into my tutoring approach. This method helps students understand that learning, like calisthenics, is a process that involves setting and working progressively towards achievable goals. As a tutor, my mission is to not only facilitate academic improvement but also to inspire a genuine love for learning in my students. I strive to create an environment where students feel empowered, motivated, and excited to reach their full potential. I am looking forward to partnering with you and your child on their academic journey!

I have completed my A-Levels (achieved A*A*AA and A* EPQ) at Ashbourne College, London, where I also acquired some tutoring experience. I am currently studying Law LLB at the University of Leeds. I believe in personalised learning and I will assess all of my students' learning styles to help maximise their academic potential. My passion for education combined with my commitment to helping students reach academic success helps create an optimum environment for learning. Contact me today to schedule your first tutoring session and take the first step towards academic success!

I am an experienced tutor of teaching English online for the last four years. I teach individually and in groups, both children and adults. I also have two years as a Leader of the Peer Assisted Learning Scheme (PALS) in English Literature at the University of Edinburgh. I am an alumna of the University of Edinburgh, having completed the English Language and Literature degree with a first in 2020.

Hello! My name is Gavindu and I'm currently doing an Integrated Masters in Computer Science at the University of York. I have been tutoring for 2.5 years in Maths and Computer Science, as well as being a programming tutor for CodeNinjas. I have completed formal training in tutoring and have a lot of experience tutoring children with special needs. My teaching style consists more of building the child's interest in the subject, rather than teaching the content for the sake of it, since interest is what helps understanding and inspires further learning. With that, my lessons will be fun and engaging while being fully informative, as the lessons will be based fully on the exam specification. As for my results, I have achieved 9's in Maths, Computer Science, Music and all sciences. I also achieved an A* in Computer Science at A level and a few marks off an A* in maths. I have also completed grade 8 and 7 in piano and guitar, winning a formal competition for piano in the process. I am happy to do trial services to see if I'm the right fit for your child, and I'm happy to answer any questions you may have! Thanks for reading, Gavindu

I am a 2024 Law graduate from the University of Cambridge and Masters student at King's College London. I have over 7 years experience tutoring English of all levels and thoroughly enjoy working with students to build their confidence and love for the subject. My own passion for learning was fostered at school by wonderful teachers who offered individualised support, which I am sure contributed to my own academic success. I achieved a straight set of 9s/A*s at GCSE and A*A*A in my A levels (History, English Literature, Latin). I thoroughly enjoy paying the support that I received forward to engage students in their learning. My teaching style is warm and personable, and experience has shown that this not only massively improves students' grades, but also how rewarding they find studying English in general! While my tutees have consistently seen improvements in their results (with one recent student progressing from a grade 4 to a 7 in just three sessions), I always feel the greatest sense of achievement when they tell me that they have started to read for pleasure, and not just for their homework. I achieve these outcomes by creating a nurturing environment, where no question is too "silly", and students can work on their own strengths and weaknesses with the individualised support and encouragement they deserve. I would be delighted to support you or your child's learning journey, so please do not hesitate to reach out if you have any further questions, or to book a 15 minute free trial.

Hello! I'm currently pursuing a BA in Philosophy, Politics, and Economics at Durham University. With over a year of tutoring experience, I have had the privilege of guiding students through subjects such as Arabic, Maths, Sciences, and English at KS2 and GCSE levels. I bring a strong academic background, having completed the International Baccalaureate at Ardingly College with top grades in HL Maths and Economics, and achieving high marks in Economics and Further Maths at the GCSE level. In addition to tutoring, I have gained valuable professional experience as a Financial Services Business Risk and Controls Intern at PwC. During my time there, I developed streamlined communication strategies for client presentations, created custom templates that improved onboarding processes, and engaged with senior leadership on various projects. This experience has enhanced my organizational, analytical, and problem-solving skills, which I now incorporate into my tutoring to provide structured and effective learning sessions. Beyond academics and work experience, I am actively involved in leadership and volunteering roles, such as serving as Partnership Officer for UNICEF On Campus, Parent for People of Colour Association and Welfare Officer for the Working Class & Low-Income Society. These roles have taught me the value of empathy, communication, and adaptability, which I apply to my tutoring sessions to create a supportive and engaging learning environment. I aim to make learning an enjoyable and enriching experience, helping students gain confidence in their abilities while developing a deeper understanding of the subjects they study. Additionally, I am fluent in Arabic and English and proficient in software like Stata and Microsoft Office, allowing me to provide comprehensive support tailored to each student's needs. I also possess self-made resources on Quizlet and help sheets of topics and subjects I have already taught that my students commended me on. Hop on board to learn together through games and constant practice!
