EPQ Romanian tutors
1 UK tutor who teach Romanian at EPQ.
Romanian tutoring in the UK is mostly heritage-literacy work. The cohort is overwhelmingly children of post-2014 Romanian and Moldovan migrants, where oral fluency is rarely the issue and written Romanian is: spelling and diacritics, formal register, and grammar precision (cases, verb conjugation, the enclitic article). Families come for writing that holds up with relatives back home, for schooling if the family returns, or to keep the language from thinning out across a generation. Look for tutors with native Romanian and experience teaching heritage speakers rather than ab initio learners.
The Extended Project Qualification is a Level 3 standalone qualification taken alongside A-levels (typically in Year 12 or Year 13) and is worth half an A-level (up to 28 UCAS points at A*). Students choose their own topic and produce either a 5,000-word dissertation, or an artefact / performance accompanied by a 1,000-word report, plus a production log and a viva-style presentation. AQA's spec (7993) is the largest by a wide margin (~40,000 entries/year in England); Pearson Edexcel (Dissertation P301, Investigation P302, Performance P303, Artefact P304), OCR (H856) and WJEC / Eduqas also offer it. Tutoring on EPQ is closer to academic-research mentoring than subject teaching: research-question scoping, source evaluation and citation discipline, dissertation structure, statistical analysis where relevant, and viva preparation. Look for tutors with degree-level research experience in the project's topic area; subject-specialist A-level tutors don't always cover the dissertation craft well.
