About Sophie
I have been tutoring for the last seven years, which I have thoroughly enjoyed. I graduated from the University of Oxford in 2025, and McGill University, Montreal in 2024 with a First-Class Degree in History. I am Swiss and therefore fluent in French, and English. I have tutored several students at 11+, 13+, GCSE, and A-Level but focus now on GCSE/A-Level and University admissions. I have a passion for engaging with pupils interested in progressing in these subjects at all levels.

Languages in which the lesson is available :

Humanities : My classes are based on discussion so that pupils learn to engage with, and refine their points orally in order to form well-structured essays. We will look at a variety of texts from different time periods for English and History, in order to formulate accurate and rounded responses to questions covering a broad literary time frame tailored to whatever standard the pupil is at. I find exposing students to a diverse variety of texts ranging across both poetry and prose is something they both engage well with and enables them to cover all grounds possible in an exam situation.
Languages : With an emphasis on speaking in the target language for as much time as possible (ability dependent), I aim to build students' confidence as this is often what stops people excelling in languages. We will also be looking at some texts and short stories in the target language to expose pupils to the language in its raw form rather than just what it looks like on a worksheet. Finally, there will be an emphasis on grammar and writing as these are the building blocks to any language, and fundamentally the most important when it comes to an examination.

Perfect! Sophie is brilliant, smart and patient . Her educational approach is based on specific learning preferences. My kid enjoyed "playing English" with the pretty Sophie and made a great progress in verbal English. Highly recommended.
