About Lydia
I am a twenty year old student at the University of Bristol. I study Liberal arts, which means I am able to study English, Theology, French, History, Creative Writing and Philosophy all in one degree. As you can glean from that, I have a deep love for learning, and I find that tutoring is another form of learning for me. The more I learn about how my students think and learn, and the more questions they ask, the more I learn about my subject, and about the process of learning itself.
I find it very rewarding being able to break knowledge down and build it back up for students. Being able to watch my students progress and understand things makes me truly joyful, especially while I build personal relationships with them based on mutual respect and a form of friendship. I also love having the opportunity to stay in touch with subjects that I no longer study, such as Maths and Chemistry. I really enjoyed all of my subjects at GCSE and was upset at the prospect of having to narrow them down. Being able to continuously connect with, understand and teach subjects that so inspired me allows me to expand my breadth of knowledge even wider.

My lessons are often an hour long. However, I am flexible and am able to extend or shorten that time.
When it comes to the sciences and maths, I will break down knowledge into small understandable parts, aided by short but repetitive at-home revision tasks.
I find that those who study these subjects at university or through to A-Level have a tendency to complicate matters at GCSE level, and can have a hard time simplifying their understanding. For example, as a student who worked up from a 6 to a 9 at maths GCSE, I understand the process and technique of learning, as opposed to inherently understanding it. I have been tutoring since I was 17 and therefore have extensive knowledge of the GCSE syllabus. I am able to remember what aided me and how I understood things, while still working on understanding what helps my student, whether it be visual exercises, acronyms, story-based learning, metaphor, song, question and answer etc. I have experience working with students who struggle with ADHD and dyslexia. All students have different ways of learning, and often those who struggle in one area can bring in other areas of engagement to help them learn (like music or art).

Lydia was fantastic at helping my eldest son with dyslexia through gcse sciences and actually improved his grade to full marks! She also improved my youngest sons understanding of gcse Geography. Can’t recommend enough. I still don’t know how Lydia did it. Both boys obviously responded very well as results show and say she was super helpful. Thank you Lydia.
Lydia is a great tutor! She has a ton of experience working with kids and is always so kind and caring. She has such a wide range of knowledge across different subject areas and will be able to give lots of help with studying and revising!
Lydia is a wonderfully creative thinker. She is deeply caring and optimistic, and applies these characteristics to her teaching methods. Naturally inquisitive and engaging, Lydia will make learning a genuine pleasure for any of her students - it is difficult not to enjoy time in her company, even when spent working at subjects a child may find difficult. Lydia is also naturally very sensitive and would approach teaching with care and adaptability, coaching every child according to their needs and strengths.
Lydia is a friendly, funny and kind person who is an excellent tutor. She is patient, explains things clearly, and the students she has taught really appreciate her teaching style. I recommend Lydia as a trustworthy, reliable and generous person.
