Information About Janet
Personal Description: I am an English Teacher. I have worked in schools for over 10 years with students at varying stages. I very much enjoy one to one work with students. I have qualifications in working with dyslexic learners and autistic learners. I have a a daughter in S5 who is very driven and focused and a son in S3 who needs extra support in the class room. I feel I understand on a professional and a personal level the challenges and issues in the english classroom.
Tutoring Experience: Seven years in primary schools general class room assistant,
3 years in a secondary school for students with specific learning **Web Address Removed** ADHD, Dyslexia, Visual impairment, stress related issues.
Currently Teaching English in mainstream Secondary school
1 year as a tutoring a student with dyslexia
1 year tutoring a boy who's first language is Portugese.
1 year tutoring a primary school pupil with dyslexia.
Teaching Secondary S1 - S6. [English]
Tutoring Approach: I believe many problems students are experience are around confidence issues. Not having time in the class room to truly grasp concepts, can leave students constantly lost and not able to reach their potential. During sessions I can diagnose the key areas that are causing problems. I can then work out a set of strategies with that student which will allow them to feel more confident and on top of the work expected of them.

Thank you
From Gillian (5/5): (Secondary English) Janet has been both inspiring and patient with Mark. He is much more positive about English now and Janet has given him some good techniques for creative writing.
Gillian McGuire
Reply from Janet: Many thanks for the positive feedback Gillian. I am thoroughly enjoying working with Mark.
Regards Janet
From Geoff (5/5): (A-Level English) Although we only had a limited number of lessons both my daughter and I were very happy with Janet as a tutor and would highly recommend her to others.
From David (4/5): (A-Level English) Neil is enjoying his English sessions with Janet and feels he is benefitting from them. His confidence is improving in the leadup to the exams in May.
From Ruth (5/5): (A-Level English) Very helpful, organised, quick off the mark, and absolutely focussed on what we asked her to help with. Highly recommended! Thanks to Janet and First Tuturs!
Reply from Janet: Thankyou for your kind comments. It was a pleasure to tutor Hector.
From Diane (5/5): (A-Level English) invaluable to have the type of tutoring input that Kate needs, as we (parents) don't have the the skills to provide this. A good rapport, and it seems that the most effective ways for Kate to learn and remember have been estabished.This suggests that you have got to know know her pretty well,and in quite a short period of time, too! There have been benefits from the contacts in terms of improved confidence and performance, and hopefull these will continue.
Reply from Janet: Thankyou for these comments. I am really enjoying working with Kate!
