Information About Emma

Personal Description: My name is Emma and I am 31 years old. I have a Journalism degree from the University of Lincolnshire and Humberside. I hold a Certificate in Education (with PGCE ). I also hold a current CRB enhanced disclosure certificate (2011).

Tutoring Experience: I am currently Head of Media Studies and teacher of GCSE English Literature and Language at a major independent sixth form college. I teach English and Media Studies both at GCSE and A-level.

I have experience of working and communicating with different groups of students and this has been evident in my current role where I have been flexible in my approach and taught one and two year courses since I took up the position.

Tutoring Approach: My approach to tutoring is simple; I teach for understanding and I focus heavily on developing essay writing skills. Many pupils attempt to learn by simply memorizing facts. This only works for gaining marks at the lowest level; to achieve A* - C an ability to analyse and evaluate is essential. These are the skills I help to develop in my students by targeting my lessons to suit the learning style of the individual student. In addition, I focus heavily on teaching the basic techniques for answering exam questions. I prefer to tutor in my home as it is a pressure free environment.

Qualifications:

2008: Certificate in Education - UNIVERSITY OF CENTRAL LANCASHIRE (PGCE)
2001: BA (Hons) Journalism, Cerificate in Education (Post Compulsory) - UNIVERSITY OF LINCOLN (Professional)

Native Language: English (British)

From Sandra (5/5): (GCSE English) Although we only had 6 hours of tutoring and it was quite short notice, Emma had a lovely rapor with Fiona and worked hard to get the most out of the little time we had, and I would have no hesitation in recommending her to anyone. Thank you Emma

Reply from Emma: My pleasure. Thank you so much for taking the time to write some feedback. Please let me know how Fiona gets on. Take care x

From Cara (5/5): (GCSE English) Emma has quickly developed a great rapport with my 15 year old. With only a few weeks tuition my daughter has become much more confident in her English work. Emma has provided feedback after every lesson and I would not hesitate to recommend her.

Reply from Emma: Thank you Cara. She is a pleasure to teach and I always do my best to help bring out the best in each student I teach.
