About Sophie
I have taught several groups of students and throughout my academic career I have persistently mentored others and helped them come a long way in their studies. My students have achieved at least 2 grades progress after they have been mentored by me, whilst attaining a much more positive outlook on their abilities and what they can achieve. In a practical sense I have experience in withholding and crafting an argument (which both History and English are all about) through attending many Model UN conferences and debate practices. Additionally, I was specially selected as a Laidlaw Scholar for the University of York and I completed research and an essay independently on racism in sport.

I enjoy to initially gage the learning style of my students and from then I ascertain that all of the tasks, activities and lessons that we do together for what helps them the most. For instance if they learn best through visuals, I will ensure to make PowerPoints and the like to break the topic down into a much more focused and understandable means of image sequences. My lessons are all structures with a quick re-cap of last time and seeing where the student is at in terms of their confidence and understanding (I stress the need to reinforce a positive mindset at the start and address any worries so they feel at ease and are in a better position to learn). Usually then I will go on to give an overview of the topic and get straight into it, mixing content with exam questions and technique. However, the students' preferences always come first and I'm not afraid to let them guide the lesson in the sense of pointing me where they wish to go. Every student is able and my motto is to bring their capabilities to light.

Sophie tutored me through the Sixth Forms mentoring scheme which entailed students sharing subject knowledge and aiding students who were struggling within the subject. Sophie was massively helpful in aiding my learning and enhancing my own confidence and capabilities during both my History and English A-level. As well as verbal teaching Sophie additionally provided help and more extensive teaching through giving me further teaching materials such as condensed informational notes on the course. Patient and willing to persevere to make sure her teaching is entirely effective for the individual, Sophie was invaluable to my learning in both subjects; evidenced through a massive improvement in my own skill and grades.
Sophie was the most tenacious, hard working and determined student and mentor who always gives her best and takes on board any constructive criticism with resilience, in order to improve the outcomes of her and others' work. She works effectively with others and looks for opportunities to help those who are struggling and those in need of guidance (big or small), and improve their progress too - showing generosity with her ideas and help given. Her dedication and ability/flair was showcased through her mentoring a variety of students, especially my A Level and GCSE History students but across all of her subjects too. She is an absolute pleasure of a mentor and deserves every success in her future course and career.
