With lessons covering Race, Gender, Class and Disability, as well an overview of Inclusive Practice and an introduction to inclusive language, this course will help you to think more carefully about the language you use in your supervisions, lectures, written resources and more. Inclusion shouldn't be seen as a minefield or a test - it's a positive opportunity to welcome students into your space and take into consideration how best to include everybody in academic conversation, and this course will help equip you with some great strategies for doing so. By taking a broad and pragmatic view of this topic, this course should help you to feel more confident discussing identity experiences with fellow staff and students. This course is designed to be accessible and interesting to all academic staff, even if you identify as part of a traditionally excluded group.

This lecture covers a short biography and summary of works for C. P. Cavafy, whilst also examining the ways in which his poetry explores the classical worlds of Greece, Rome and Alexandria. I also look at some potential tie-ins between this content and the final year Cambridge Tragedy paper.

It covers the essentials of tutoring, choosing your tech and software, managing homework, and getting set up alongside detailed guidance focusing on each level of tuition. With techniques developed through research and first-hand experience, the author explains exactly how to turn existing subject knowledge into effective tutoring for students of all ages in a variety of subjects.

Divided into two parts, the first answers the logistical questions facing every new tutor such as: what equipment do I need? Where can I apply? How much should I charge? The second half focuses on how to tutor different age groups effectively and subject-specific areas including English, Maths, and Science, as well as the author’s tried-and-tested ‘5 step’ process for choosing a subject, assessing a student, and planning their first lessons. There is also information on how to support students writing personal statements and applying to university, as well as teaching English as a Second Language.

Alongside tailored, up-to-date information on available software, hardware, exam specifications, and the online tutoring marketplace, the book contains a 10-week timetable of adaptable lesson plans so new tutors can get started immediately. Finally, there are two additional downloadable chapters which expand on less common subjects and another which includes a digital download of every resource from the book.

With suggestions for resources, homework, and timings to support you at every stage, this is an essential read for anyone wanting to succeed as an online tutor.
