David

In 2022 I made the decision to work with students full time. Since then I have had great success in achieving offers from a range of top grammar schools and independent schools in London and across the UK. I work with students internationally from Singapore to the USA.

Learning is my passion. For the last twenty years, I have been privileged to work with, and lead, some of the best educators and most committed children. The knowledge I have built supporting others in a range of school settings is something I am deeply passionate about sharing with others, so I took the plunge and established David RemovedEducational Ltd.

There is something deeply satisfying about working with an individual child and seeing that "lightbulb" moment. As someone who is deeply committed to education, both personally through my own development, and in others, leaving headship has been a wonderful experience which has allowed me to concentrate my skills and passion directly to support children in their learning journeys.

Tutoring Experience

Having worked for nearly twenty years in education, fourteen of which were in senior management, including the last six as Headmaster of a leading prep school in the East of England, I have wide experience of the 11+ examination system and gaining entry into some of the UK's leading public schools such as Eton, Dragon and Cheltenham, whilst my extensive experience of the 11+ process in Essex and Kent has seen me mentor many children into schools such a KEGS, CCHS, Colchester and Westcliff.

In 2019 I was awarded Fellowship of the Chartered College of Teaching for my contribution to education. I also hold a Masters degree In Educational Leadership from Buckingham.

Although I am new to FirstTutors, please do check out my numerous reviews and testimonials on my website and social media.

Tutoring Approach

Education is a gift and I understand better than most just how precious it really is. Whether you are looking for online tuition for your child, I can tailor a programme to their own, personal needs. Whether they are embarking on the challenges of the 7+ or 11+, looking to achieve an offer of a scholarship at one of the country's independent schools, needing a helping hand with SATs or are looking for support with an area of the curriculum they find challenging, get in touch with my bespoke tutoring service, MyTutorElite.

Sometimes children lack a little confidence, other children find a particular aspect challenging. Whatever their personal challenge, I will take the time to get to know them and then tailor a programme of support to target those areas. There are a number of different approaches to entry exams. My time as a senior leader working with Year 5 and 6 children for 18 years and leading a private school with an enviable pass-rate has taught me a great deal and I have chosen to work with individual children to share that experience and help them achieve their goals and secure a bright future in their chosen school.
