About Yasser
A dedicated educator who teaches English and Maths up to GCSE level, with a strong emphasis on breaking down complex concepts and helping students understand both the content and how to articulate their ideas clearly. A specialist in high-level academic writing, guiding students through the intricacies of dissertations, academic journals, and research methodology. I work closely with both Primary school, secondary school, undergraduate and postgraduate students, helping them refine their writing, structure their arguments, and develop critical thinking skills. Completing two theses in the field of travel and tourism, which shows I am commitment to both academic and practical expertise in the area. This adds a unique dimension to my teaching, as I bring real-world insights into your lessons. A versatile teacher, adept at handling a range of subjects, and experienced with workshops, peer feedback, and personalised teaching methods that suit different student needs. I emphasise a scaffolded learning approach, where students gradually build their knowledge and skills. Passionate about using research-based techniques, particularly helping students navigate the challenges of writing high-level academic papers. I likely guide them in sourcing reliable materials, crafting sound arguments, and polishing their final drafts. A supportive mentor who encourages both independent learning and collaborative work, especially through peer reviews or group discussions.

I have a broad range of skills that you bring to your students, from the intricacies of English literature and language to guiding them through high-level academic journal writing and dissertation projects. My techniques are the following: 1. Scaffolded Learning: In my English literature and language lessons, I likely break down complex concepts into more manageable sections, helping students build their skills progressively. For example, I might start with foundational knowledge—like grammar or literary devices—and then gradually move to more complex analysis or essay writing techniques. This helps students master the basics before tackling more advanced tasks. 2. Active Learning & Critical Thinking: Encouraging students to actively engage with texts (whether literary works or journal articles) is likely a big part of your methodology. I might ask them to analyse texts from different perspectives or engage in debates that challenge their understanding. This builds critical thinking, an essential skill for dissertation work and high-level academic projects. 3. Workshops and Peer Feedback: I can conduct workshops, especially when guiding students through dissertations or journal articles. Group discussions or peer reviews allow students to critique each other’s work in a constructive way, which helps them refine their own writing. Peer feedback is a great way to encourage independence and collaborative learning. 1. GCSE Level Sessions (English & Maths): Typically, GCSE-level sessions would be about 1 hour to 1.5 hours long. These sessions are usually fast-paced and focused on specific learning objectives, whether it's understanding key concepts, practising exam-style questions, or going over homework. 2. Undergraduate/Postgraduate Sessions (Dissertation & Academic Writing): For higher-level students working on dissertations or academic journal projects, your sessions might be a bit longer—around 1.5 to 2 hours. These sessions would likely involve more in-depth discussions, review of drafts, and more detailed feedback on their progress. Sometimes, when focusing on research methodology or other specialised skills, you might even have extended sessions of 3 hours or more, especially if you're working through complex concepts or guiding a group in a workshop setting. 3. Workshops/Group Sessions: If you're conducting a workshop or group seminar—especially for postgraduate students—it could be anywhere from 2 to 3 hours. These sessions often involve collaborative work, peer feedback, and intense discussions, which require a longer time frame to fully engage with the material. 4. Online or Hybrid Sessions: If you also have any online or hybrid teaching, these sessions might be a bit shorter (around 45 minutes to 1 hour) to keep the virtual environment engaging and to accommodate the often shorter attention spans in online settings.
