About Murphy
Meet Murphy Irehovbude - fondly called, "Prof" by family and acquaintances due to his study culture. As a passionate teacher and content writer, he does wonders with words. He commenced writing valuable content officially in Secondary School (2009) when he became the President of a Literary & Debating Society and Press Club (conjoined clubs). He was responsible for writing news, creative content, debates and other speeches. He edited and proofread speeches. He also represented his school and won many prizes. Afterwards, he became an educator in 2011 and has been using his knowledge of content writing to help his pupils win awesome prizes for about eleven years now. One of his pupils won N100,000 cash prize in Kellogg's National Composition. Another of his pupils won 50 Pounds in 2017 during a debate competition he prepared him for. Also, in June 2022 his debate pupils won N150,000 at the Canadian Gateway inter-school debate competition. To hone his skills, he has taken some courses, e.g. Copywriting for Conversions: How to Write Persuasive Content, Strategies for Teaching Phonics using Multisensory Instruction Techniques and Fundamentals of English Grammar in which he had a distinction of 100%. He even has a certificate in Teach English as a Foreign Language (Internationally Recognized), making him a Qualified ESL Teacher. Moreover, he has a National Diploma in Business Administration and B.Sc. in Economics. He prepared his pupils for a fantastic delivery at the Vanguard TV Children's Day Program, 2022 with barely two days of preparation. In 2021, five of his pupils made the Honor's Roll and received a Bronze Medal while one of them was among those that came in the FIRST position in Lagos State, Nigeria - in the Royal Mathematics Quiz Challenge. This pupil achieved this feat while he was in Grade Four - not even the highest class in the competition! Murphy has also helped many pupils pass the N.C.E.E. and International Examinations with flying colors. He uses both the Nigerian scheme and Cambridge Scheme and resources. He teaches both physically and only since he is tech-savvy. Among the remarkable awards/recognition he has received are: •The Teacher of the Year •The Most Consistent Teacher • The Most Outstanding Speech/Debate Coach (cash prize) etc. Writing content, teaching or communication for him is more than a muse - it is a life! Thank you!

I have taught English for over 13 years now; my students have won many prizes, including a National Competition. During lessons, I paint mental pictures that are relatable. I also dramatize. Connectivity is also one of my strengths: I connect new concepts to previously learned concepts to aid retention. I am also very engaging because I am a passionate tutor.

While my base rate aligns with the platform’s guidelines, certain factors may lead to slight adjustments. Being aware of this and to give consent for such adjustments, SuperProf allows tutors to add “𝗱𝗲𝘁𝗮𝗶𝗹𝘀” in this segment!

Additionally, for more demanding subjects, tests or exams like IELTS, SAT, or GRE, which require extensive planning and specialized materials, rates may vary.
Other considerations include the number of students (e.g., teaching siblings together), time zone differences requiring sessions at unconventional hours, the durations, the amount of sessions in preparation for a fast-approaching exam and costs associated with virtual learning tools.
