I am a fully qualified teacher who taught geography at schools in the south west for 11 years. For the past 9 years I have been a full time professional tutor, tutoring a large number of students at KS3, GCSE and A Level successfully. I am able to provide additional support to school lessons as well as teach full course content for students needing to review whole topics or courses. In more recent years I have also tutored home schooled students KS3 and KS2 which I have really enjoyed. I am friendly and patient and quickly get to know my students and how best they work and need help. I am very kind and understanding and my students are able to talk to me with ease. I really enjoy working with young people and helping them to achieve their best.
Tutoring Experience
I have taught geography for the past 19 years covering KS3-KS5 and helping students achieve exam success. I am confident teaching a wide variety of geographical topics and have excellent knowledge of both GCSE and A Level specifications. In more recent years I have focused on teaching A Level through my private tutoring and work at a private college. I have a thorough understanding of OCR, AQA and Edexcel specifications at A Level. During my time as a teacher I have helped many students achieve excellent GCSE and A Level exam results. I am an exam marker and this allows me to help students to approach exam questions in a way that gets them the highest marks.
Tutoring Approach
I believe students thrive when they feel comfortable and confident. I am patient and friendly and build excellent relationships with the students I work with. I really enjoy tutoring young people and all my students enjoy their lessons with me. I cater for the needs of each individual student and adapt lessons and resources to best help them. As part of my tutoring, I work alongside student's schoolwork and follow exam specifications to ensure the correct content is covered. My lessons and activities are varied and engaging and I use practice exam questions to help build student confidence. I update parents/carers regularly outlining what has been taught and covered in the lessons as well as the plan for learning going forward. I understand the importance of helping students to achieve the best they can and believe this is achieved through confidence building, great communication, flexibility and engaging lessons.
