About Laura
I am a fully qualified and GTCS registered Modern Studies teacher, with a particular passion for supporting pupils with the pressures of exams. In May 2024, I successfully completed the PGDE Modern Studies course at University of Strathclyde. In June 2023, I graduated from the University of Strathclyde, with a BA (Honours) in Politics, International Relations and Social Policy. Throughout high school, I studied Higher History and Higher Politics along with both National 5 and Higher Modern Studies where I received an A in all of the above. When completing Higher Modern Studies (2018), I achieved 100% in both the exam and the assignment and became the highest achieving candidate in Scotland, for which I was recognised by the Modern Studies Association. I have over 5 years experience tutoring and really enjoyed sharing my experience and knowledge with others.

Modern Studies is a very complex subject that can be interpreted in a variety of ways so my teaching method depends on the individual. I have worked with individuals with different needs so I am able to confidently accommodate them. Firstly, I aim to help students understand the course content whilst learning to cope with the demanding time limits. To further understanding, homework will be given on a weekly basis, with the expectation it is sent back to me in time for it to be marked and results will be discussed during the next lesson. After that, creating essay plans, working through past papers and learning a variety of exam techniques are great ways to start revising for upcoming deadlines and exams.

Laura tutored my 6th year son who had failed modern studies higher and lost confidence in the subject. She spent the last year providing a structured learning experience for him with regular homework and massively improved his confidence and knowledge. He is hopeful he has passed this year. Laura is efficient, knowledgeable and has a great ability to connect to teenagers and motivate them.
I highly recommend her.Laura is highly professional, knowledgeable and very organised. She is always fully prepared, having spent time planning the session and marking homework that has been set. Her relationship with the student, while friendly, is always learning focused. She is able to to work to exam or expand learning beyond the curriculum to encourage inquisitive minds and higher order thinking. As a member of senior management in a high school as well as a parent whose child is being tutored by Laura for N5 Modern Studies, I recommend her without hesitation.
Laura has been to tutoring my daughter in Higher Modern Studies. She has built an amazing rapport with her, is always patient but has also maintained a professional approach. She is committed and dedicated and always goes over and above to gain results. I would thoroughly recommend her to anyone needing extra support. My daughter calls her the ideal tutor, 5 stars!
Laura has tutored my son for the last two years; through N5 and Higher Modern Studies. During this period, he has become significantly more confident and more proficient in using the recommended structures to write essays and his results reflect this. He really enjoys working with Laura. She is highly professional and her explanations and advice are outstanding. She is friendly consistent and her knowledge is the syllabus is superb. I can confidently recommend her as a tutor.
