The Fundamentals of English Language and Literature
From 30.54 C$ /h
I'm Aimee and I am a student at Københavns Universitet studying English Literature and Scandinavian Studies. Prior to moving to Copenhagen I was an English tutor for four years, teaching students both in and out of school. I typically tutor students from folkeskole to Gymnasium level and have taught those with additional needs such as dyslexia and autism and respect that some children need a little extra help with certain subjects. I recognise that different students learn in different ways and so I am able to tailor my sessions to their learning style. I am very successful with my tutoring and have helped pupils raise their grades from below a pass to top grades. I am enthusiastic and driven which I feel is very important especially as, from experience, when someone struggles academically they tend to distance themselves from that certain subject. By having a positive and passionate tutor alongside their revision, I've found that students tend to warm to the subject after only a few weeks even if they still feel they struggle. This positive mindset really helps to drive them to reach their full potential and achieve the grade they deserve. I am very excited to begin tutoring and I hope to hear from you soon.

About Me
English is a complex language and reading it in the form of an 1000 page novel can make it seem impossible to get any sort of understanding even to a native speaker. That is why I pride myself on easy, step-by-step lesson plans that are clear to follow throughout. I am very much against the teaching method of pointing to a powerpoint slide for one hour. My lessons are interactive, colourful and enigmatic; I am passionate about this subject and I want my students to feel the same way at the end of every class. Work should be interesting and they should feel a quest for knowledge and not feel like it is an obligation or a bore. I can assure my classes are friendly and insightful and open your eyes to the exciting world of literature and the english language.
