Depending on your exam board we will focus on the features which teachers tend to leave out. My aim is to make your studies easier to understand, and better grades be more reachable. I am undergoing a Politics degree currently, and my first student went from a D to an A* in 3 weeks. From doing the subject for 2 years myself and tutoring others in this, it has allowed me to perfect the structure to ensure students get their best grades. Not only this, but I understand what examiner wants out of you. My teachers were A level examiners for this subject, helping me understand truly what was needed for the top grades. Being a lead of politics society also has helped me engage with developing politics skills for many age groups, helping me understand the importance of a personal relationship to make tutoring not feel like you’re under constant pressure from someone. My engagement with the political world allows for my knowledge to be vast, which helps to provide key examples to help secure the top grades. I will be doing small quizzes, practise questions and going through how to really revise politics. Essay plans will be a key feature of my lessons, and I am fortunate enough to have resources that help with every possible essay question you could get, and exactly how you should answer. As a student, I understand the stress behind exams and the pressure of performing, so i aim for my lessons to be a relaxed space where there is no shame in a bad performance, as we will be changing that. I myself had dyslexia at school and I had extra time in exams, so i don’t want students fearing if they have slight set backs as I will gladly cater to all needs, and this has allowed me to explore varying revision techniques, as some people suit certain methods better. My aim is to help your confidence, a key aspect with essay subjects. I did English literature and History also at A level, so I understand the weight of essay subjects and how important structure is for them. I try to make my lesson engaging and not boring, with unique learning techniques that make topics memorable.
