Qualified Teacher in Mathematics, University of Warwick, MA, PGDE, QTLS certified.

Preparing for academic challenges is the best way to build confidence. Whether your aim is to consolidate existing knowledge in subjects of maths and English or getting a head-start and preparing for exams - a few extra hours a week is all that is required.

I am a qualified teacher with over 10 years of combined tutoring and secondary school work experience. I have been an A-grade student throughout my academic years, therefore, I understand the importance of building strong concepts in core subjects at a young age to ensure long-term academic progress. Additionally, I have experience teaching learners with high functioning Autism who progress really well with my teaching style.

PRACTICE AND HARD WORK IS THE KEY.
The aim to build strong concepts and thorough knowledge yet make it easy enough to enjoy the subject. I encourage students to think for themselves which greatly builds their confidence. I would also like to mention here that I have a great sense of responsibility when I undertake any task, therefore I assure you of commitment and my best support.

Tutoring Experience

English consists of Grammar, Punctuation, Spelling, Creative writing, Comprehension skills, Vocabulary, GCSE style questions.

Previous teaching roles:

Tutoring Approach

STRONG CONCEPTS NURTURE A BRIGHTER MIND!
The focus during lessons is to strengthen basic concepts and build on existing knowledge in an engaging manner. I am friendly and approachable which helps students gain confidence and achieve their potential. During the lesson the aim is to:
1. Developing an understanding of the concept
2. Doing a variety of practice exercises
3. Reviewing weak areas and improving upon them
4. Tests for building confidence
5. Homework to support learning
6. Attempt test/exam style questions
