About Rija

Hello, I'm Rija, and I'm passionate about teaching a variety of subjects, including English, mathematics, and more. I specialise in English at the GCSE level and tutoring students preparing for the 11 plus or SATs exams, while also offering expertise in mathematics.

With a strong academic background, including achieving an average grade of 8 in my GCSEs, I possess a solid foundation in both English and mathematics. My own educational journey has ignited my enthusiasm for these subjects and my desire to impart knowledge to others.

My motivation to teach spans across multiple disciplines and is rooted in a genuine love for learning and a belief in the transformative power of education. I am driven by the opportunity to make a positive impact on students' lives, helping them develop critical thinking skills, problem-solving abilities, and a lifelong passion for learning.

As a tutor, I am dedicated to creating dynamic and engaging learning experiences tailored to the unique needs and learning styles of each student. Whether it's decoding the complexities of literature or mastering mathematical concepts, I employ a student-centred approach, fostering a supportive and inclusive environment where students feel empowered to explore, question, and grow.

With my combination of academic excellence, teaching experience, and a genuine passion for education, I am committed to helping students achieve their academic goals across a range of subjects, equipping them with the skills and confidence needed for success in their educational journey.

As a tutor, my approach is student-centered, aiming to cater to the individual needs, learning styles, and pace of each student. Here's how I typically structure my tutoring sessions:

Assessment and Goal Setting: At the beginning of our sessions, I assess the student's current level of proficiency and identify their strengths and areas for improvement. Based on this assessment, I collaborate with the student to set achievable goals for our sessions.

Customized Lesson Plans: I design personalized lesson plans tailored to the student's needs and goals. These plans often include a mix of activities such as reading comprehension exercises, writing tasks, vocabulary building, grammar practice, and exam-style questions.

Interactive Teaching: I believe in making learning engaging and interactive. I incorporate various teaching techniques such as discussions, role-plays, multimedia resources, and real-life examples to help students grasp concepts more effectively.

Feedback and Revision: Constructive feedback is crucial for improvement. I provide regular feedback on the student's progress and encourage them to reflect on their learning. We also dedicate time to review and revise previously covered topics to ensure retention and understanding.

Exam Preparation: For students preparing for GCSE English or 11 plus/SATs, I focus on familiarizing them with the exam format, teaching exam strategies, and providing ample practice with past papers and mock exams.

Encouragement and Motivation: I believe in fostering a positive learning environment where students feel supported and motivated to excel. I encourage them to ask questions, take risks, and celebrate their achievements, no matter how small.
The typical length of a lesson varies depending on the student's age, attention span, and scheduling preferences. However, I usually recommend sessions of 60 to 90 minutes for optimal learning.

As a tutor, I hold a strong academic background, having achieved an average grade of 8 in my GCSEs, particularly excelling in literature subjects. Additionally, I have several years of experience tutoring students at various levels, including GCSE English and 11 plus/SATs preparation.

My lessons are primarily aimed at students preparing for GCSE English (typically aged 14-16) and those preparing for the 11 plus or SATs exams (usually aged 10-11). However, I am adaptable and can adjust my teaching approach to suit students of different ages and levels of proficiency.
