Qualified, and experienced English tutor (Nat 5/Highers, ESOL for general purposes as well as business and academic English)

Hello! My name is Rebecca and I am excited to help anyone in need of assistance with English or Psychology. I currently work part-time as a lecturer of research methodology at an international college and as an occasional examiner for Cambridge GCSE and A Level examinations (English language, literature & general comprehension). I am educated to PhD level in Linguistics & English Language and I have over 10 years of experience as a private tutor. I also have expertise in language pathology and hands-on experience working with pupils with learning difficulties. While I mostly teach English for the Scottish National curriculum and ESL/EFL, I am also able to teach Psychology, particularly the research methods component of psychology. Regarding EFL/ESL I can teach English as a second/foreign language for general purposes, business English or academic English. I can also assist with IELTS and Cambridge First Certificate examination preparation having been an IELTS and Cambridge First tutor in the past. I have taught in schools, colleges, community centres and universities as well as in summer schools abroad. My lessons are tailored to your needs and abilities. My teaching approach is scholarly yet patient, sincere and empathetic. I will keep track of our sessions, issue homework (with your schedule in mind), mark homework and offer in-depth feedback regarding your progress and work produced.
