Information About Louise

Personal Description: I have taught psychology and sociology for the past seventeen years and I am also an assisant examiner for psychology AQA. I consider myself to be patient, approachable, helpful and also fun to work with. I am also a mum to two children and I live in a small village in South Derbyshire. I can travel to your home or I teach at home- what ever is easier for yourself. This year I have offered support to students through e-mail and phone and I have travelled significant distances to their homes to offer half day/ full day intensive tuition. This has benefited the students greatly. I have also had students achieve in the top five students in the country at A level. I am the UK tutor for Sociology for an International correspondence school and I am the UK A Level advisor for Psychology to the British Psychological Society. I ALSO OFFER TUITION BY **Contact Detail Removed**.

Tutoring Experience: I have worked in schools and colleges for the past seventeen years.I have set up a very successful Social Science department in a school sixth form and I examine A level psychology for AQA, Edexcel and OCR. Presently I am teaching A level Psychology and Sociology to a wide age range of students with differing abilities. I also teach to degree level. I have taught both Psychology and Sociology privately to all levels for many years and references can be provided by students and parents. I currently teach a number of students privately all of which can provide references. I also have full CRB clearance. With my vast examining and teaching experience both in schools/ colleges and privately- I can make a difference- so if you require any additional help, please send me a message as I would love to help.

Tutoring Approach: My approach to tutoring is that it must be tailored to the qualification/ exam to be sat. I have a vast knowledge of examining and tutoring students privately to gain exam success. I am friendly and approachable, two years ago I home schooled a girl in AS Psychology, her parents were very pleased not only with her grade, but my committment and motivation. During the academic year 2010-2011 I have taught fifteen students in both Psychology and Sociology, some have stayed with me for the summer holidays, some i will resume teaching in September and others are awaiting exam results. I teach every week in Stoke on Trent tutoring a young woman who is undertaking her Bsc in Psychology, I have helped her with her research methods module in particular in which she failed her Jan 2010 exam but with the additional tutoring she has passed the year!! Every week I travel to Derby (currently Etwall, Allestree and Repton), Nottingham, Leicester (currently Syston and Sutton Borrington), and Stoke on Trent as i have successfully made tutoring my full time occupation, of which I am extremely proud.
