About Robert

I have worked primarily in writing or editing roles since graduating with my BA in 2016. My main passion lies in writing, as demonstrated by my completing a Masters in Journalism 2019-2020. Since finishing my MA, I have been freelancing for various companies and writing recreationally - my own scripts and short stories.

With this line of work, I have plenty of spare time on my hands and I know that it would be best-used tutoring. I have been encouraged by those closest to me to pursue this line of work and feel passionate about it. My past experiences with tutoring/ teaching have given me the confidence to help my students achieve their highest potential.

About the lesson

I have a knack for communicating with children in a way that motivates them and makes their studies enjoyable.

While at the University of Sheffield, I worked as a Play-worker at Nether Green After School Club. I supervised regular homework/ revision sessions for Year 6 students, preparing them for entrance exams.

My amiable personality was noted by my supervisors, who were impressed with how I managed to make kids behave without having to get angry or scold them.

More recently, I tutored students at Belmont Junior School in the capacity of a Teaching Assistant. My teaching experience here covered every subject, but the humanities are where I excelled, as noted by teachers at the school (including the deputy headteacher).

I have done one-on-one with SEN children, including a delightful student named Eoin, who had dyslexia. I ensured that he learned helpful and more efficient methods for students with dyslexia. This included multi-sensory lessons (using plenty of images and videos) and presenting new language in small, manageable chunks.

I helped make English lessons fun, as most of the tasks he received were based on creative writing. We were all proud of the progress he made, as he received a class prize for one of his stories which gave him great encouragement in his writing abilities.

My lessons typically last for an hour, but I am flexible with lesson time. Regarding age groups, I can tutor children from KS2 level to GCSE, in either English, English Literature or History.

Robert singlehandedly got my 15 year old to pass his GCSEs with flying colours even after she missed weeks of school due to illness. I can’t thank him enough.
He’s incredible supportive and flexible with his teaching, and will adapt to whatever the student needs.
