Online English Tutor - KS3 & GCSE group lessons

Advert description

I provide online group lessons for Year 9 to Year 11, focused on preparing students for GCSE English Language and English Literature exams. ABOUT ME: With a strong academic background, including 3 Distinctions at university level, and a lifelong passion for learning, I bring a mix of real teaching experience and real‑world professional experience to my lessons. I thoroughly enjoy continuing to help students improve academically. I aim to help students from a student’s perspective, thereby providing a unique and relatable approach and teaching your child the exam technique and study skills that teachers in school don’t cover. ​ I’ve taught at university as a Graduate Teaching Assistant, worked as an Assistant Examiner and Moderator for Cambridge International Education, and supported students from primary level through to GCSE as a private tutor for 12 years.  ​ Alongside this, I’ve spent five years working as a Paralegal and am currently working towards my solicitor qualification - a journey that has deepened my belief in the power of words, clear communication, and the ability to express ideas confidently.  TEACHING APPROACH: In my group lessons, my teaching is tailored to individual students’ needs on what skills, topics and specific feedback they require to improve. My approach is very focused on building your child's confidence in their academic abilities, and whilst teaching content and exam technique, also equipping your child with study skills that will assist them long into the future. Each lesson I aim to provide an engaging experience, build knowledge and skills, for example, note-taking skills, how to analyse an extract, study a text independently and how to critique your own work. I also provide tailored feedback to each student, as well as providing notes from the lesson and homework to help gaps I pick up in my students’ learning and development. LESSON DETAILS - Sundays online: • Year 9 & 10 - 11am–12pm - £15 per hour • Year 11 - 1pm–2pm - £16 per hour (1st lesson is a paid lesson) Let's enjoy the English learning journey together to achieve success. I'm here to help :)

Both my children have been with Zahra since the start of secondary school through to their GCSEs for English lessons. She has been an amazing tutor who we highly recommend. She is an excellent teacher who always puts a lot of effort into helping my children understand the content and provides high-level, in-depth feedback on all their homework. My children really enjoyed their lessons with her, which helped them achieve good grades in their GCSE English. She was also always willing to help by giving advice on any other subjects they were struggling with and was there for us whenever we had any queries. My children are very grateful for all her efforts, support and advice.
