Gavin

I am a hard working and tenacious individual and team player. My parents taught me respect and good manners.
I feel a genuine concern for my fellow human being.
I am willing to go the extra mile for my fellow human.

I am musical, I play piano to Grade 6 Level and very much enjoy trips to the theatre. I believe in supporting local talent including youth theatre. I also support my local annual Shakespearen Productions.

Tutoring Experience

I am a fully qualified English and History tutor with more than fifteen years teaching experience in a variety of settings. I have a fully enhanced DBS and QTLS qualification.

I specialise in English Language and Literature from Key Stage 2, and 11 + to GCSE. I also tutor A Level English and the International Baccalaureate. I teach History from Key Stage 3 to A Level.

I tutor via a variety of exam boards including AQA, EDEXCEL, WJEC/EDUQAS. Also IGCSE Cambridge and
IGCSE EDEXEL.

I am reaching out to parents of young people who require tutoring in these subjects. Do not hesitate to get in touch.
I am sure you will not be disappointed, parents both past and present wax lyrical about my teaching ability.

If you want your child to achieve a top level grade in English and or History then I am the tutor for you.

I am already taking bookings now for a September start.
I teach online via Teams and in person.

Don’t delay, get in touch today!

Tutoring Approach

I am a dedicated, enthusiastic and diligent teaching professional. I possess a methodical, well organised and, most importantly, a student centred approach to my teaching. I believe that differentiating by offering tailor made lessons and lesson plans to meet students' needs is vital. I believe that offering parents and students informative feedback is essential for their academic and personal development. I take this approach with all my students. My approach is to encourage and motivate learners to achieve their goals.
