Personal Description:

My name is Vicki-Marie Venn and I run my own online tuition business, Social Science Tutor.

I'm an experienced teacher with three degrees and full teaching qualifications. I've taught Sociology and Psychology in state and independent schools but now I tutor online to students across the UK.

Tutoring Experience:

I have been teaching and tutoring for over 12 years, specialising in A level and GCSE provision.

I am a Home Education specialist; 60% of my current students are home educated.

For Psychology I tutor students following the AQA specification at A level and both AQA & Edexcel for GCSE. I can offer taught sessions and assignment proofreading for undergraduates although I do not offer SPSS tuition.

For Sociology I tutor students following the AQA specification at A level and GCSE level plus the CIE iGCSE. I also offer taught sessions and proofreading for university students.

Tutoring Approach:

I offer online tuition. I use Skype, which means students can hear and see me in real time - just like face-to-face lessons but on a computer screen.

I use Google Docs as an online whiteboard where we create a record of our lessons. Homework can be set and added to the document each week.

l tutor between 9:10 and 2:50 Monday to Friday during term time. Please contact me for current availability. Upon purchasing my details from First Tutors I will send you a list of term dates plus my terms and conditions.

From Jemma (5/5): (University Health / Social Care) Vicki has been a great help to me regarding a piece of work for university; she replied really quickly and went out of her way to assist me with a deadline. Her comments were intelligent, clear and helpful. First class tutor

Reply from Vicki: Thank you Jemma. I hope to work with you again in the future.

From Khalil (5/5): (GCSE Sociology) Vicki did an excellent job marking the AQA Sociology papers for GCSE. She also gave excellent feedback over Skype, I would thoroughly recommend her for any parent requiring a competent examiner to mark their childrens' papers.

Reply from Vicki: Thank you for your kind feedback.

From Melanie (5/5): (A-Level Sociology) I can't thank Vicki enough for all the help and support she has given my daughter, during her A-Levels. She has helped to fill gaps left by teachers and improved her knowledge and understanding. My daughter will miss her tutoring sessions.

Reply from Vicki: Thank you for your kind feedback.

From David (5/5): (A-Level Sociology) Very Very Good
We where left at short notice without a tutor. And Vicki came to our rescue.
Not only has she picked up from where the old one left off. She has moved Alice forward light years.
This has boosted Alice's confidence no end. Thank you Vicki for stepping in.

From Donna (5/5): (University Health / Social Care) Dear Vicki,
Thank you so much for your help with my dissertation.
You have been flexible with time, given me ideas and suggestions and pointed out where changes were needed.
Just what i asked for, thank you!

Reply from Vicki: Thank you Donna. It was great working with you and you will be an asset to the Social Work profession. You're also a very good social scientist!

From Nicki (5/5): (University Psychology) I had huge reservations about using Skype, much preferring face to face tutoring. However, Vicki was amazing and I needn't have worried. The whole hour was jam packed with teaching that was relevant, helpful and communicated effectively, Vicki certainly knows her stuff!
Spending just one hour with Vicki helped me to understand some of the concepts that I was struggling with for my psychology degree research project, so much so that I achieved 90%. Yes I had to look at it a few times in case I'd misread it!
I would certainly recommend Vicki to anyone and I would without a doubt use her again.

Reply from Vicki: Thank you Nikki, it was great working with you, and I'm so pleased you got such an incredible grade!

From Natalie (5/5): (A-Level Psychology) Amazing and very easy to get on with. Will mark essays etc no trouble and provides suitable feedback. Highly recommended.

Reply from Vicki: Thank you Natalie! You're a great student.

From Katerine francesca (5/5): (A-Level Psychology) Vicky is an excellent teacher. I was extremely confused and she explained everything in a clear and simple manner. I would highly recommend her and I will definitely be using her service again.

Reply from Vicki: Thank you! I look forward to working with you again.

From Lara (5/5): (A-Level Sociology) Organised, friendly, has a great way of explaining things and has been a huge help.
