About Helena
I recently graduated from Durham University with First Class Honours in English Literature. I am a problem-solver and logical thinker who rises to new challenges with determination and creativity. As well as tutoring extensively, I worked as classroom assistant at St Vincent De Paul, where I helped 11-year-old students with various subjects including Maths and English. I also translated into Spanish for non-English speaking students. From this I learnt about one-to-one teaching, particularly easy and quick changes that transform a student's understanding of the material.I remember the stress of exams at School and hope to be able to make someone else's journey a little easier! I worked as a teaching assistant and youth leader, which means I am experienced at working with children. I worked hard at school, (all my GCSEs were A* grades, and Pre-U/ A2-levels were A*AAA equivalent), and am therefore excited to help other students and tutees fulfil their potential. I finished my A-levels recently (2016) and am therefore familiar with the required exam technique, essay-writing styles and material required to reach the top grade boundaries.

Recommendations

I have known Helena Snider since June of last year when she applied to become a student on the MFA Theatre Directing at Birkbeck, of which I am the programme leader.
Since August Helena has been a full-time student on this programme and has been fully committed to the programme: serious and professional in her attitude to her work and collaborative and generous to her fellow students and colleagues. She is certainly punctual, trustworthy and reliable. I have no reservations in offering this reference for her."This is a reference for Helena Snider. I have worked with Helena on a number of projects over the last few years, particularly for a production company and on various dramaturgical projects. She is a hard-working, sensitive and intelligent individual who is interesting and interested in all those around her. She would make a fantastic tutor and I could not recommend her more.
