I am a fully qualified teacher of English Language & Literature (AQA, Eduqas and Edexcel) with over 20 years experience teaching in the classroom, and offering private tuition for 4 years. I have now retired to solely undertake private tuition. Having been the internal verifier, and lead in preparing and delivering - L2 English language programme, has provided a good knowledge base. Marking for AQA English Language and Edexcel Functional Skills has assisted in having a high pass rate. My specialist area is GCSE English, and also have qualifications in SEN and ESOL.
I have experience in teaching primary maths and English. FACE-TO-FACE (Hereford) OR ONLINE.
I have group workshops for language and literature commencing in August.

I have also taught students who are Home-Educated (IGCSE), private tuition, and GCSE English at an Hereford college.

Tutoring Experience

Over the years, I have taught most Literature texts and have an excellent success rate.

Literature texts include: Macbeth- An Inspector Calls- Sign of Four -A Christmas Carol - Blood Brothers - Lord of the flies - Jekyll & Hyde - Romeo & Juliet...

Up-to-date DBS, safe guarding and mental health certificates, I have also completed a counselling course.

Tutoring Approach

My methodology is chunk teaching and reinforcement to engage and motivate learners. Making the learning fun and accessible is key. I always have high expectations of students and endeavour to build confidence, and self-esteem. All students can achieve with the right approach. Offering regular homework and assessing learning at each stage allows student to monitor their progress. A good education opens more pathways.
