Information About Volfango

Personal Description: I am a qualified teacher with several academic qualifications and with considerable experience in teaching (besides having also had other employments outside education), who enjoys very much schooling and I have a great passion for languages and the social sciences. I constantly strive to learn more and I keep up to date with current teaching methodology and innovation.
Additionally, I have reviewed, for the Times Educational Supplement, some secondary schools text-books in subjects as AS Law, Philosophy, Religious Studies and Citizenship. I have a special expertise in European Studies (including European Politics, Law and Economics and EU institutions and treaties) subject that I found fascinating and spend a lot of time reading about and researching.

Tutoring Experience: I have taught mostly in colleges (A levels) but also in primary (a little bit) and secondary (much more) schools and on a couple of university courses (undergraduate ad post-graduate). I started teaching in the nineties and I am constantly studying new courses and keep my knowledge up to date. I have experience of giving private tuitions and teaching on a one to one basis as well. I very much enjoy teaching Politics and Law; my A level students have obtained excellent results in their exams (results can be supplied) and several of them told and wrote me that I have transmitted onto them the passion for the subject.

Tutoring Approach: In a one to one lesson, I target my teaching style to what is required and wanted by the client. In general I try to make the learning quite interactive and use a variety of teaching material and activities. Most of the resources I use are own devised and targeted to that particular student, however I also search for the best teaching material in books and other teaching resources collections. The lessons tend to result interesting because the theory is shown in practice; during the lesson there are continuous references to daily life and one's personal experiences; this helps to interiorise and memorise the subject matter.

Qualifications:

From Helen (5/5): (Intermediate Italian) Volfango is a supportive teacher who is patient, friendly and approachable. The lessons are structured carefully around the needs and interests of the student. I would not hesitate in recommending Volfango to anyone.

From Philippa (5/5): (Advanced Spanish) He was very helpful and patient and knew exactly what I wanted to learn. He was very friendly and made the lesson interesting and fun.

Reply from Volfango: Very dear Philippa,

Thank you very much for your very positive feedback.
Mis vacaciones me estàn gustando y me he diverttido mucho visitando muchos pueblos del centro de Italia.
Vuelvo a Gran Bretanya el 28 de agosto por la noche. Si quieres hacer otras leciones de espanyol antes que te vayas a Irlanda del Norte, contàctame y prepararé otra lecciòn paa ti, esta vez aùn mejor que la de antes.

Saludos,
Volfango.
