Personal Description: I am coming to the end of my first year of teaching having gained a PGCE 'M' from UEA in Norwich, one of the number one training schools in the region. I have a 2.1 degree in English Language & Literature from University Campus Suffok. I have a great love for my subject, and am willing to help pupils aged 11-16 in the subject of English as required. I am also available to assist with GCSE retakes if required for 16+ year olds. I also have a knowledge of AS/A2 English Language, English Literature and English Language & Literature courses having taught it previously at my training schools.

Tutoring Experience: I have completed two Teaching Placements in two Outstanding Schools, and am currently working at a school in Essex. In my first year here, I have had excellent results from classes and progress has been graded as excellent. In my most recent observation, I was graded as 'Good with Outstanding features'.

I have previously tutored pupils outside of school also. We currently follow the OCR specification at GCSE Level though I also have a knowledge of AQA.

Tutoring Approach: I try to make learning as fun and engaging as possible whilst ensuring that you are still learning! I also try to do a range of activities so as to keep you interested, and tailor activities to individuals. I like to get to know my tutees' individual needs so that I can tailor sessions to their specific requirements, and ensure that they have the confidence and knowledge to succeed. I am creative in my approach to both teaching and tutoring to ensure that pupils are engaged with the learning process whilst enjoying it also.

I live in Ipswich but I as I teach in Colchester, I am also available to tutor in the Colchester area.
