About Aren

I have in-depth experience tutoring in English language and literature as well as history, with GCSE, A-level and university students. In addition to tutoring, I am always expanding my understanding of these fields via interdisciplinary research in history and literature at the University of British Columbia in Vancouver, Canada. I thus offer a wide-ranging knowledge base that allows me to help students understand the greater context of the specific information they are dealing with. I have also helped a number of students (ranging from age 25-60) improve their English for competency exams or for entering the UK job market. I find that successful tutoring really comes down to helping students surmount the barriers that keep them from achieving their goals. Unfamiliarity with language, confidence problems, social difficulties, lack of motivation, poor communication skills, anxiety, and focus issues are just some of the many factors that could be holding a student back. After years of working with both children and adults with learning and/or developmental disabilities, I possess strong interpersonal skills with which I can help students overcome such obstacles. In the process of pursuing both my own studies and the education of others, I've learned that no matter what obstacles we face there are particular ways of thinking, working, and communicating that allow us to be successful where we may have failed before. As a tutor, I help students apply these tricks of the trade to their school work and to development of life skills such as dedication, organisation, and respect for others that help make academic success worthwhile. Students have usually already encountered the information or skills they are trying to learn—my job as a tutor is to give them the tools to encode and apply that knowledge for future success. A little about me—I’m Canadian born and bred but I’ve lived in a number of other places around the world as well, including the US, Lithuania, China, and the Netherlands. In addition to my academic training I have also worked as a photographer, a writer, and a community support worker. In my spare time I enjoy travelling, reading, walking, and spending time with friends.
