My Summary
About Me
Hello there. My name is Luke, and I am a PhD student in Education at UCL. I am a CELTA / TESOL certified English tutor and have over four years of professional tutoring experience both online and in-person. In addition to my above teaching qualifications, I have a MA in Education with Distinction from the University of York as well a MSC in Carbon Management from the University of Edinburgh. My undergraduate studies were in Business and Financial Management.
My specialism is in coaching children for their 7+ 11+ and everything related. I am currently conducting lessons online via Zoom or Zhumu as well as in-person in Sheffield, Leeds, Doncaster, Manchester and Nottingham. (In-person lessons will usually be held in a public setting such as in Waterstones or a cafe). I can also travel further afield if required, also I have previously conducted daily tutoring sessions for children from foreign families staying in London for the summer holidays.
I am currently offering a limited number of slots here due to already having an existing number of students and students scheduled to be taking classes with me in the coming months from word-of-mouth referral, I can provide any prospective students with references upon request.
My lessons are always varied, full of enthusiasm and support from myself and I aim to always go above and beyond to ensure you are satisfied, I am always available for any questions outside of the scheduled lessons and will provide extra homework on request. I spend a lot of time outside of lessons preparing and personalising your lessons so that I make the best use of your time. I do not use the same content over and over again; each lesson is customised to focus specifically on the areas required by the student.
During the course of my students’ tutelage, the majority have achieved above-predicted grades and have excelled in their academic performance.
Please note: Proposed rate will depend on the subject and level of study, please do contact me first to discuss your requirements.
My Experience
I have successfully tutored over 150 students from a wide selection of private, state and grammar schools including some very prestigious schools: Harrow, The King's School, Gordonstoun, Tonbridge School, Westminster School, Langley Grammar and many others.
I also provide regular tutoring services to both primary and secondary level students undertaking their GCSE, IGCSE, IB and A Level examinations. I tutor Geography, History, Philosophy and Business Studies.
I also tutor English Language, Literature and IELTS/ESL. I have extensive experience in these areas and have tutored hundreds of students both in the UK in-person as well as from foreign countries online. I can draw upon a diverse range of resources as well as my own experience and expertise to help students reach the top marks. I have also helped a large number of students that needed additional assistance in order to pass their English qualifications. I have knowledge and experience of all major exam boards.
I also have experience of tutoring IELTS to foundation-year students preparing for their university studies, I have also previously worked as a UCAS advisor and university admissions administrator.
I also provide proofreading services for assignments and dissertations for university submissions. I can provide this service at all levels of university study from undergraduate through to doctoral assignments.
I can also help with guidance for university applications, job applications and have previously assisted over 100 Chinese students with their applications to British and American universities. I have coached the majority of these students through the entire applications process, from writing their personal statement and assisting them with completing their application to preparing them to take their IELTS examination.
