Personal Description:
I graduated in BA German (2:1) in 1989 and after working in international business for several years I retrained to be a German teacher. I have over 20 years experience teaching privately and in state schools, (both at a comprehensive and a highly selective girls' grammar). Now I work independently as I would like my working hours to be flexible. As well as tutoring GCSE and A Level students, I teach General/ Business German at 3 different levels at home and at Visteon Engineering Services in Chelmsford and have been an Associate German Lecturer at Anglia Ruskin University Chelmsford. I have also been an Examiner for the new GCSE German oral examination. I live in central Chelmsford.
Teaching Experience:
09.94 - 03.98 St. Martin's School Brentwood. Teacher of German and French.
03.98 - 07.01 Supply Teaching in Chelmsford and Private Tuition (GCSE, A Level and Business German).
08.01 - 08.16 Chelmsford County High School for Girls Teacher of German. Outstanding results at GCSE, A Level and IB.
09.16 - present Personal German Tutor and Associate German Lecturer
Teaching Approach:
I adopt a personalised approach according to my students' needs. I focus on communication skills (speaking and listening) as well as building students' confidence with reading, grammar and written German. I will focus on whatever aspect of German my student wants and prepare a tailor-made course.

~ M.S… Year 12 student
She is very friendly, consistent and attentive to our needs. She is one of the best we've ever had!
Kathy provided well structured lessons and resources and was extremely approachable both within and outside of lessons (via email).
I would recommend Kathy for anyone’s child who is taking German GCSE.
