I was a self-employed tutor, one-to-one tutoring GCSE students in English Literature and Language, History, Religious Studies, and Geography in my spare time during my A Levels. I organised time well for myself and my students, developed lesson plans, marked essay plans and essays, and tailored lessons and feedback to each student's strengths and weaknesses, getting their grades up as a result. In 2024, I also took on tutoring students in the year below for A Level English Literature, supporting their preparation for exams and understanding of course material and criteria.
