Rose

I am a Teach First Ambassador and worked in an academy in London for three and a half years as a Maths and Economics Teacher. During my time there I was Head of Economics, a Teacher Development Co-ordinator (responsible for teacher training across the school), a member of the Sixth Form Tutor Team (helping students with UCAS, personal statements, organisational skills and subject issues) and part of the school’s Leadership Development Programme.

I am a committed and passionate teacher who strives to build knowledge and interest in subjects through the use of current affairs and theory in practice.

Tutoring Experience

During my time in a school, I taught Year 7-11 GCSE Maths, Year 11 GCSE and Year 12-13 A-Level Economics. Alongside classroom teaching, I carried out a number of smaller, focused group or one-to-one sessions to help students really understand any theory they were struggling with in lessons or to push them beyond this level to reach the top grades.

In addition to my in-school experience, I have tutored Year 3-8 English and Maths, GCSE Maths, GCSE and A-Level Geography and GCSE and A-Level Economics. I have also worked with Year 13 students on revision skills.

In addition to these teaching roles, I am also an examiner for OCR and AQA Economics.

Testimonials:

“Rose has helped me so much with exam technique and learning new content these past few months. She has also supplied me with an infinite amount of model essays and extra PowerPoints to help integrate my application skills further. Couldn’t recommend enough, thank you! ”

“As a student who has never learnt economics before, having Rose as my tutor for the beginning of my A level course has proven to secure my foundation on key economic concepts that will be essential for the rest of the course. I am also very grateful for Rose's help and support in teaching me how to structure and write an essay. I am definitely going to miss our lessons and would strongly recommend Rose as your Economics tutor.”

“Rose helped me prepare for the Autumn Series A-Level economics exam. Although I only had a few weeks to prepare, I was able to achieve an A* — Rose’s lessons and guidance helped me tremendously, not only in Economics but in gaining back my confidence. She helped me plan essays very effectively; I would highly recommend Rose as an A-Level tutor.”

“Rose tutored our son for his Economics A-Level including some introductory sessions before his course started as it was a brand new subject for him. Rose was brilliant at bringing the subject to life for our son and applying the principles to current events that our son could relate to and understand. Rose’s appreciation for the details of the syllabus and the exam format were reassuring and her teaching was patient, empathetic and energising. Rose was both teaching her subject as well as teaching our son about the standard expected at A-Level which was invaluable.”

“Many thanks for your help with my essay writing. I think the part that has really helped me the most was getting to discuss economic topics in detail with someone who really knows the subject. I was really glad to have done that.”

• “Rose has been an outstanding A level Economics tutor. The disruption of the pandemic had resulted in our daughter becoming completely disengaged from her A levels. After a disastrous end of year exam ( grade E) we knew that drastic action was needed to get her back on track. As soon as Rose started teaching, we knew our daughter was in safe and very capable hands. In just 6 weeks they had covered the entire first year syllabus and the exam resit grade rose from an E to a B. The upward trajectory continued, and the final A level grade was an A*. Not only is Rose an excellent teacher but she was also able to read my daughter in a way that she knew exactly what was needed to enable her to fulfil her potential. She was extremely kind and patient whilst expecting the very best efforts in both tutorials and in set work. Initially, when confidence levels were rock bottom, she managed to instil enough confidence in my daughter so that she knew that all was not lost and she was still capable of achieving a high grade. Having achieved such a great result, our daughter is now planning on studying Economics at university. We highly recommend Rose as an A level tutor – she is truly exceptional.”

However, since i met with her, I have been constantly developing my knowledge about the A-Level economics topic as well as my essay writing. She really helped me to improve my level from A to A*.

Rose explained things clearly and in a way that made it easily understandable and gave my daughter more confidence in her own capabilities. We would highly recommend Rose to any prospective pupil.”

Tutoring Approach

When teaching I like to use a range of resources so students are engaged in what they are learning and get to immediately see its relevance to the world around them.

I encourage my students to question theory we cover so as to build their analytical and evaluative skills.

I have worked with students of all levels and, as a result, have a wide variety of teaching resources I can use to ensure content is appropriate for the level my students are working at.
