Eilidh

I am a qualified and experienced teacher with a strong background in tutoring both History for Scottish qualifications and English as a Foreign Language. Over the years, I have worked with students of all ages and levels, helping them gain confidence, improve their skills, and achieve excellent results.

Professionalism and clarity are at the heart of my teaching. I prepare thoroughly for each lesson, adapt my approach to suit different learning styles, and create a supportive environment where students feel comfortable asking questions and making progress.

With my experience and dedication, you can be assured of reliable, high-quality lessons that will help you reach your academic or language learning goals.

Tutoring Experience

I have extensive experience as both a classroom teacher and private tutor, supporting learners across a wide range of abilities and backgrounds. Over the years I have successfully prepared students for Scottish qualifications at National 5, Higher, and Advanced Higher level, as well as helping international learners build confidence in English as a Foreign Language. In addition to my teaching background, I am also an SQA marker, which gives me valuable insight into how exams are assessed and what examiners are looking for. This allows me to provide clear, targeted guidance that helps students approach their studies with confidence and achieve strong results.

Tutoring Approach

My teaching approach is supportive, adaptable, and focused on building confidence. I take time to understand each student’s strengths and areas for improvement, then tailor lessons to suit their individual learning style. I combine clear explanations with discussion, practice questions, and exam-style tasks so that students can both deepen their understanding and apply their knowledge effectively. I believe in breaking complex ideas down into manageable steps and creating a positive learning environment where students feel comfortable asking questions. This method not only prepares learners for exams but also helps them develop lasting skills in critical thinking, analysis, and communication.
