About Rosalyn
I graduated from Cambridge in social sciences twenty years ago, and gained my PhD ten years ago. I am now a Senior Researcher at UCL and have just completed my first book.
I have over ten years experience private tutoring at university, primary and secondary school levels, as well as adult education, specialising in social science and literature subjects.
I currently tutor at Bath Academy in GCSE, A-level and University Foundation levels. I have previously tutored BA level at University College London. Last year I taught three A-level sociologists, all of whom got their highest grade in Sociology, and got into their first choice universities as a result. I am currently tutoring students in A-level English literature, and social anthropology.
I have worked with various alternative educational programmes, in both South America and the UK. In London I was a mentor with the 'Gifted and Talented' programme, encouraging entry in top universities for young people from areas with low attendance rates. I also worked with the Brazilian movement AfroReggae teaching circus skills and samba drumming in inner-city Liverpool summer schools. In Brazil I worked with a city based project teaching technological skills to disadvantaged young people, as well as rural community education projects with the Landless Movement. In southern Mexico, I taught primary and secondary children in schools run by the Zapatista movement, which took back land for those who work it and set up their own educational system. I later wrote a MA thesis on alternative rural education.

I have a genuine delight in the subjects I teach, and hope to inspire this enthusiasm as well as clarity of understanding in learners, which is often difficult to accomplish in the classroom. I enjoy working with children and young people, and seek to understand the individual mindset of a person in order to render concepts comprehensible and even familiar. I have worked with educational programmes employing dynamic and participatory learning strategies, such as those of Paolo Freire, aiming to encourage independent thought and consideration of issues. These approaches centre on non-hierarchical forms of learning in which 'teacher' and 'pupil' jointly consider and learn from material. My own experience of school curriculae has also shown me how to employ real understanding to create excellent exam performance.
Recommendations
Recommendations come from relatives, friends and acquaintances of the teacher
Rosalyn did several tutor sessions with my daughter for her English Literature GCSE mock on the text 'Never Let Me Go', and we couldn't recommend her more highly. My daughter is much more confident with the subject, and has great points and themes to discuss in her text that her teacher hadn't considered. Rosalyn also marked and discussed essays in much more depth and consideration than is possible for a school teacher.
Having been eager to learn about anthropology and not knowing where to start, I had the best luck finding Rosalyn. Enthusiastic, fantastic knowledgeable and wonderfully insightful Rosalyn has been a joy to learn from for the last few months and I am super excited to continue with her.
I would highly recommend to all who are looking for guidance, or expert advice. Fantastic tutor.I found the sessions with Rosalyn very helpful and welcomed the challenges she set me. unfortunately, our sessions were cut short with the results of CoVid19
Rosalyn has been tutoring me for almost a year for an A-Level Media exam. She was always very prepared for each lesson with care and enthusiasm. She was always very patient, friendly, and highly motivated.
She is extremely knowledgeable and teaches in a lovely calm matter. We covered every part of the specification in depth and this really helped me further my understanding of the subject. Rosalyn is an excellent tutor who understands any specific difficulties a student may have and knows how to support him/her. For example, Rosalyn would look at the essay questions I wrote and helped me improve my writing and my understanding. This made me feel much more confident and prepared for the exam.
I would highly recommend Roselyn to anyone requiring tutoring for media as she is very supportive and extremely knowledgeable.Rosalyn is a fantastic English tutor who has been working with my daughter guiding her through A-levels. Rather than simply waiting for you to do the work all by yourself she read through each novels for my daughters coursework, introducing her to more complex ideas and further reading - something imperative for higher grades. Rosalyn also goes beyond the curriculum by helping my daughter with her personal statement and Cambridge interview making she was answering questions critically whilst encouraging her to do her best. If you’re looking for someone to give detailed and constructive feedback resulting in weekly progression then she is the best person for you.
Rosalyn was great.
I had her during my second and third year and learned a lot.
Very professional and enthusiastic!
Highly recommend.Rosalyn has been teaching in the Department of Anthropology at University College London for the last year and has proved very popular with students who said that she was able to explain complex ideas clearly and engagingly while also introducing them to alternative ways of thinking about the subject that led them to explore the subject in more depth. I most strongly recommend her to you.
