PhD in Arabic Literature
My three decade teaching career shows my academic coaching experience. Countless students have taken advantage of my knowledge of the Arabic language and its literature. I've also contributed to subject area research with several publications. These publications reflect my commitment to the Arabic literary field. By hiring me, students get a seasoned academic coach who knows the needs of modern students.
I always make sure that students understand basic concepts. I believe in clarity over rote memorization. This is why I regularly check if a student truly understands what is being taught. To track their progress, I hold regular assessments and quizzes. These keep students on their toes and allow me to adjust my teaching style. My familiarity with the IB curriculum also comes handy.
I have had 4 sessions with Sir Salem till now. I find him to be a great teacher! Salem is really empathetic, helpful, and non-judgmental. He makes learning a new language fun. I also like how productive and dedicated he is towards my learning.
I take sessions with Mr. Salem for A-level Arabic, 4 times a week. I had several tutors before him, but he is ideal for me. Every lesson shows how passionate he is about the Arabic language. He teaches Arabic grammar in such a way that I find it beautiful now. He also talks about levantine Arabic specificities. I like how Salem always brings back vocabulary and content from previous lessons for my revision. Lastly, he is also very patient and adapts lessons to my speed. I can say without hesitation that Salem is a genuine and dedicated teacher.
Bachelor's in French Studies
I have been teaching French for 30 years and have a bachelor's degree from the University of Manchester. I have helped many students learn French during my career. I am currently 58 years old, and I work as a teacher in the French Language Department.
My teaching approach is simple and effective. I believe in building a strong foundation by focusing on essential vocabulary and basic grammar rules. Through interactive conversations, I aim to instill confidence in students to express themselves in French. My goal is to make learning the language enjoyable and accessible to all.
I really enjoyed learning French from William! The professional lessons were customized to suit my specific needs, interests, and preferred learning style. He is consistently supportive and understanding, making the process of learning a new language less daunting. I found my classes to be very inspiring and they always sparked great conversations!
MPhil and PhD in English
In addition to teaching in English, I have experience providing multilingual guidance, ensuring students from diverse linguistic backgrounds understand complex topics. Over the years, I've also had the honor of publishing research in subject areas related to English, keeping me up-to-date with the latest developments in our field. I believe these experiences can be instrumental for students, offering them a broad perspective and relevant insights.
In my lessons, we love critical thinking. I encourage students to not just accept information but to question, analyze, and draw their own conclusions. I strongly believe in active participation; it’s through discussion and hands-on activities that true understanding unfolds. My students don't just passively receive knowledge; they engage with it. Regular feedback and assessment are crucial, ensuring students know their strengths and areas for improvement. Through this strategy, I've seen many students gain both skills and confidence.
Antonio is a wonderful tutor who inspires me. He is a very pleasant and optimistic person. His way of teaching and conveying information is quite productive. I definitely plan to study more with him.
Antonio is a wonderful person and teacher! With him, English lessons are very interesting. It has never been so easy for me to write or learn English. I recommend you to start studying with Antonio with all my sincerity. He also uses productive learning tools. Lastly, Antonio is never late to sessions.
PhD in Mathematical Sciences
I have been involved in math education for almost thirty years, and it has been a very rewarding journey. I have been teaching in high schools since I was young, and now I give lectures in universities. I have personally witnessed how the discipline and teaching methods have changed over time. I am particularly interested in combinatorics and number theory. This interest has allowed me to present papers at international conferences. In addition, I have mentored many students for math competitions and seen them achieve top positions. I love sharing what I know, so I wrote a series of math textbooks that explain difficult concepts in a simple way.
A lot of students have trouble with geometry, especially Euclidean geometry. I focus on this approach. I have noticed that students grasp geometric concepts more easily when they can engage with them. So, I use hands-on teaching methods. This involves using tools like geometric sets, compasses, protractors, and even origami to show geometric principles. This practical method not only helps you see angles, shapes, and proofs better but also makes learning enjoyable and interesting. I have noticed that when students physically interact with geometric shapes, their ability to remember and understand them improves greatly.
I used to be afraid of Maths as a subject. Now, I really enjoy it because of Matt.
I appreciate how Matt made geometry interactive. I wish we could apply the same method to other math topics as well.
Matt is a great teacher. My child had to study for a surprise school test (for an A-level grade) in just three to four weeks. He was very flexible and gave my kid a lot of help in such a short amount of time. He taught well and covered a lot in his lessons. Besides the planned classes, he also mailed my child almost every day to make sure that homework queries were answered quickly. He was very helpful, and we were very thankful.
Doctoral degrees Mathematical Engineering
My academic background in math has given me a deep understanding of the subject matter. I am familiar with the GCSE curriculum, allowing me to provide targeted support based on each student's needs.
My tutoring approach revolves around problem-based learning. By engaging in practical problem-solving, you'll grasp concepts with a hands-on approach. Meeting a student’s goal is my utmost priority. To ensure your success, I plan our sessions to cover the syllabus. I develop a positive student-teacher partnership, where your active participation is key. With me as your guide, you'll confidently ace GCSE math.
Oliver is a professional tutor who gives his heart and soul to educating all pupils. He’s dedicated to making a difference in the lives of the children. I strongly recommend Oliver services to all students who need some care in GCSE math.
Declan was very patient with me and worked with my preferred learning style. He makes learning fun and I would highly recommend Declan to all GCSE Math students.
Mr Declan is a warm-hearted, loving, patient and professional tutor, who constantly thinks out of the box. He builds up a student's self esteem. In just a few weeks, my confidence and interest in math have increased.
Doctoral degree in Applied Mathematics for Economics and Management
In my 29 years as a math tutor, professionalism has always been my utmost priority. Holding a doctoral degree has given me a deep understanding of university-level math, ensuring that students receive accurate and insightful guidance. My tenure has taught me the balance between expertise and the ability to convey complex concepts simply.
I emphasize critical thinking and questions in sessions. These qualities urge students to analyze and understand the underlying principles rather than just memorizing formulas
Emmett empowers me to learn independently, providing the resources instead of just giving answers. This creates a self-learning culture. I never knew how to take ownership of my abilities and learning. But I really like this self-reliance. I’m grateful to Emmett for being a rare tutor.
Emmett’s sessions are engaging because he uses multimedia resources.
Ph.D. in Renaissance History
For almost 28 years, I have been teaching mainly about the Renaissance period. This was a time when there was a lot of amazing art, culture, and intellectual growth. I started my career in Paris and then I went to different universities in Europe to give lectures as a guest. I was able to share and learn new things about the Renaissance era, which helped me become even more knowledgeable. I have been involved in many research projects in Europe. This has helped me gain a better understanding of the subject, and I always try to pass on this knowledge to my students.
The Renaissance is not only about art and famous people. It's a mix of changes in society, new ideas, and cultural growth. In my classes, I make sure to go beyond the usual and explore the hidden aspects of this period. This could involve looking at the art of a not very well-known artist or talking about the social and political meanings of a recently translated Greek text.I want to help IB students understand, study, and present historical information well. This includes having in-depth conversations, practise tests, and regular feedback sessions to make sure students are not just learning information but also using it wisely.
Mr. Gagnon’s deep knowledge of the Renaissance era is both inspiring and enlightening. His sessions always left me with new insights and a thirst to learn more.
I attended Oliver teacher's practice class last week. I was anxious since I had to pass an English proficiency test. I texted him because he didn't have any time on his calendar that day, and he responded by making extra time available for me in the morning. He was also really polite and didn't make me feel ashamed, even though I couldn't wake up in the morning and arrived 20 minutes late for the lesson. He made excellent use of the time we had left. He listened to me while instructing me on the important topics for the test. Additional documentation was also given by him. I felt more secure and more at ease when I studied with him. I did well on my test. He is undoubtedly a person of great kindness, friendliness, and professionalism. I appreciate his help a lot.
MA in Mathematics Education
I have been teaching in classrooms and developing curriculum for 28 years since I finished my Master's degree. I have taught students of different ages, from middle schoolers learning basic math to college students studying advanced calculus. I have held different positions in academic boards, where I have advocated for better and up-to-date teaching methods. I am committed to helping students outside of the classroom. I have been involved in tutoring programs to assist students who have difficulty with traditional teaching methods.
Mathematics is fundamentally a logical subject. I want to help students think carefully and solve problems step by step. I explain the reasoning behind formulas instead of just presenting them. I use a teaching method called "problem-based learning." It involves giving students problems that require them to learn new concepts. In this way, learning is a direct response to a real need. I think frequent assessments are important. They help both the student and me understand how well they are learning and allow us to make any necessary changes to our strategies.
Jose's problem-based approach made me see the relevance of what I was learning. I improved so much in Maths.
My daughter is nine years old, and Jose has been her teacher for almost a year. Her birthday is August, and she goes to an academic prep school. She is smart, but she has had trouble with the very hard math program. Her feelings about math had gotten so bad that she wouldn't even go to class. She cried and threw fits over her homework, and she was showing signs of serious worry. Jose has taught her a lot about how to deal with her feelings. His friendly personality and firm limits work well together. His patience is amazing, and he is teaching her more than just math. He is also giving her the tools she needs to learn and work on her own. I can't say enough good things about him.
Master's in Japanese Linguistics
I have been teaching Japanese language for nearly 30 years. I am very interested in how the Japanese language has changed and developed throughout history. I can use my knowledge to teach students about Japanese grammar, syntax, and vocabulary from a historical perspective. I can explain not only how these aspects work, but also why they developed that way.
I often use the history of the Japanese language in my classes. By learning about the origins and causes of language changes, students can better understand modern Japanese. We study old writings, examine how language has changed over time, and learn about the factors that have influenced the modern Japanese language.Learning should be fun! Our lessons will be interactive, incorporating language games, role-playing, and multimedia resources. By keeping the lessons engaging, you'll find it easier to retain and apply what you learn.
Yeung has a lot of patience and is nice. Grammar has been hard for me, and she does a great job of carefully going over those things in the lessons.
While the historical details are intriguing, I found myself struggling with basic conversation. The approach might not be for everyone.
Yeung’s lessons are always well organized and planned, and she is a great teacher who can always make things clear. She is also very understanding about my busy schedule, which means I have to reschedule lessons sometimes at the last minute, which I really value.
Master's in Spanish Literature with a focus on 20th-century writers
For nearly three decades, I've had the privilege of introducing students to the beautiful world of Spanish literature. From famous writers like García Márquez to lesser-known poets, my classes delve into the works that have shaped Spanish culture and its language. These years have also seen me guide students in understanding not just the language but the emotions, history, and narratives behind the words.
My approach to teaching Spanish is deeply rooted in its literary traditions. In my classes, we don't just read the works; we discuss them, break them down, and even try our hand at writing. This helps students expand their vocabulary and get a better grasp of grammar structures. Of course, while literature is the core, I ensure that students practice speaking, listening, and writing to get a comprehensive understanding of the language.
Taking Spanish with Mr. Smith feels like taking a literature class and a language class at the same time. The stories and poems we read give so much depth to our lessons. I love it!
I have to admit, I've grown to appreciate Spanish literature a lot more thanks to Mr. Smith. His passion for the subject really shows, and it's contagious. I just wish we had a few more conversational activities.
There's something special about learning a language through its literature. The way Harry Smith teaches makes Spanish come alive in a whole new way. I love the depth we get into with the literary texts, but sometimes I feel a little overwhelmed. A bit more balance with basic conversation would be great. Nonetheless, I've learned a lot. I do hope we can have more sessions on Spanish cinema soon.
