Personal TutorFreelance Apr 2017 - Sep 2024Glasgow, Scotland, United Kingdomo Within my academic studying from undergraduate to postgraduate, I began to personally tutor students from ages 14-17 with their National 5 and Higher English qualifications. In particular, I helped tutor a girl who was diagnosed with ADHD and Autism to complete her Higher English as she was failing her classes. I found this opportunity to be vital as it gave me the opportunity to help a student with neurodevelopmental disorders, as I had to adjust my previous teaching methods to find a teaching style which suited her learning. Overall, the skills I have gained from tutoring are numerous and ever growing as the school curriculum changes as well as new teaching methods are being engaged within schools. Furthermore, it helps to further my knowledge of English Literature, as I have to be able to simplify the knowledge in a way that is engaging and informative to students younger than myself.o Throughout my last year of higher education, I helped with English tutoring in my secondary school where I would help the National 5 and Higher candidates with any support they needed. This would range from engaging in close reading, folio (both personal and persuasive) and critical essay. This helped me expanded my levels of previous teaching and aided my level of understanding to helping others, as I was sitting my advanced higher English exam that year. Furthermore, I found this to be helpful in my first year of university as the skills I had gained helped me in my group work in seminar teaching as it enlightened me on how to approach certain elements of academic study.
