David

Enthusiastic, passionate and dedicated teacher of Politics and Economics. Politics in particular is my passion, and I have feel privileged to have been able to turn this into my profession

Tutoring Experience

I am currently Head of Politics, and have taught Politics for over 6 years (AQA). I am also an examiner for AQA, having examined for the Political Ideas paper (2022) and the US Paper (2023). I have taught Economics for over 2 years, both Micro and Macro. I have also taught GCSE (Edexcel Weimar and Nazi Germany, Cold War, Medicine Through Time, Elizabeth) and A-level History (AQA Tudors) for 7 years, and examined for Edexcel for 3 (Weimar and Nazi Germany and Medicine papers)

Tutoring Approach

I employ formative assessment techniques to establish students' prior knowledge of a subject, before designing a lesson to build on that. I am a very responsive teacher, who is quite adept at identifying key areas to improve, and creating resources to help with those. I want to help engender a love of learning for students, and particularly enjoy the use of oracy/questioning to facilitate student learning.
