Robert N.

Robert Neumark Jones is a charismatic and thoughtful educator with over 13 years of tutoring experience. He has been a tutor across the world from Moscow to Delhi and in each country prioritises making a strong connection with his student. Robert pushes his students to encounter new obstacles in their learning and works with the student to overcome them. He has experience with students of all levels and embraces the opportunity to make a positive impact on their lives, as well as ensuring they achieve academic excellence.

I believe that tutoring is first about personal connection. Any learning can only be achieved given a certain level of trust, which must be established in order to create a solid platform from which further learning can then flourish. Younger students are most open to absorbing information and should have the chance to take academic information and guidance from a range of people. This enhances the educational experiences and broadens the horizons of a student.

Aside from tuition he is a trained actor, published author and keen sportsman.  

Having successfully passed grammar school entrance exams, three university degrees and auditions for multiple prestigious drama schools in the world I know that, with the right teachers, subjects can really come alive. I have also seen how more clinical approaches to tutoring further separate students from the learning process. Having been a student myself, I have seen the many positives and potential pitfalls one-to-one tuition can bring. These experiences galvanize me and help me in my own tutoring. I relish taking what I have learnt, and the exciting methods by which I have learnt it, and passing that on to other students.

Regardless of the level taught, it is impossible to make real progress unless the student first has engagement and interest in the subject. I see my task as tutor as a process of invigorating the material for those studying.
