Over the past 5 years, I have tutored a broad range of students (aged 7 to adult) across a range of subjects (including English, History, and Religious Studies) and for a wide variety of curriculums (including i/GCSE, A-level, school and Oxbridge application prep, and International Baccalaureate). I have worked with a range of students for the English aspect of their 7+, 11+, and 13+ entrance exams to a range of competitive private schools across the UK with great success. As a result, I am familiar with the requirements of such exams, and have developed techniques to help young students maintain focus and develop their critical thinking and comprehension skills.

I began tutoring students for their GCSEs and A-levels whilst a student at Oxford. After completing my BA (joint hons.) in History and English, I travelled to France for 3 months to do TEFL. I then spent 6 months managing an online tutoring company. In this role, I managed over 200 tutors and a portfolio of global tutoring clients who were applying to top UK schools and universities (primarily Oxford and Cambridge), and the relevant exams they needed to sit. I guided clients through their application processes, and personally matched them with excellent tutors, taking on History and English students personally. As a result, I am deeply familiar with what makes a strong application to all top UK schools and Oxford and Cambridge.
After working with this company I studied for my MA and became a civil servant. Throughout this period I continued to be a professional private tutor, coaching and mentoring students through some of the most difficult application processes in the world, and working with hundreds of students in the process.

“I will miss our tutor sessions so much- I couldn't have done the past three years without you! Thanks to you I feel so much more confident in my English abilities now and am very excited to take on this next academic chapter.”

“Cyara has been brilliant! She has given a lesson in English and a lesson in History and my son is already starting to understand what is required from him for the upcoming exams. Thank you!”

Parent

“Cyara is teaching my daughter English and my son History. She is very friendly and the lessons are well organized. She sparks the students' thinking by asking them very interesting questions and knows how to guide them to understand the topic better. I would highly recommend Cyara if anyone is looking for a tutor for their children.”

Parent

“Cyara is thoughtful and patient towards our daughter. She made lessons fun and engaging, which was an unexpected bonus for us! Our daughter is very eager to produce homework with care and feels proud of what she can now achieve. We are very grateful for Cyara’s help and ongoing support.”

Every session is adapted to the needs of my students, and I will work with both students and parents to develop a learning plan that will best suit a student's learning style and goals. I have a lot of experience with a range of exam boards, so when helping students prepare for exams I always explain what examiners are looking for, and will teach, set, and mark written work in this style, so that students can feel confident in an exam setting.

I am very friendly and approachable, and enjoy talking about a range of subjects and topics (from 20th Century American history to medieval European history, and more!). I bring my enthusiasm for my subjects to all sessions, and look for ways to help students be equally excited by these subjects, developing their love for learning in order to help further motivate them positively in their journey.

Alongside being a professional private tutor, I work 9-5 for the civil service . I have been a private tutor for over 7 years and will continue to do this. In my spare time I play rugby, swim, and sing in a traditional choir. Before joining the civil service I completed an MA in Gender and International Development at the world-renowned Institute of Development Studies in Sussex.
