Tutoring Experience

I have 8 years tutoring experience tutoring at a range of levels from 11+ to university admissions prep. I have tutored in English Lit and Lang, Drama/Theatre Studies, Geography and other essay-based subjects. I have tutored students both in-person and online and have experience with SEN students.

Tutoring Approach

I am enthusiastic, patient and passionate. I enjoy planning lessons in advance but am open to working on homework or set revision tasks with students. I believe that enjoyment and interest in the subject help with academic achievement. Having studied Education at Cambridge University I am also equipped with the pedagogical tools that help me to work with students in an open, exciting and challenging way.
