I am a Spanish native and have lived and worked in Glastonbury for the last 9 years. I am a certified teacher (QTS) with a B.A. (Hon) in Educational Psychology from Murcia University in Spain.
I have extensive experience of teaching students of all ages and levels in Spain and the UK. Feedback from students and exam results have been excellent.
I tailor my tutoring sessions to the individual needs and learning styles of each student. I create a rapport with students, allowing them to feel at ease and build confidence in their own capabilities through support and encouragement. All this, while making learning fun and interesting, which I believe to be an important part in developing an ongoing passion for Spanish language and culture.
I take a deep satisfaction in encouraging students to fulfil their potential and see their growing love for Spanish language and culture. Through my coherent, motivational and interactive teaching I provide students with a strong foundation and enthusiasm for developing Spanish language.

I source most of my tutees via word of mouth recommendation and through my facebook page Milborne Maths. This academic year, I had a few resit students approach me therefore some slots have opened up mid way through the year now they have sat their exams which is unusual! I am usually fully booked by now and having to turn people away - so you may be in luck!
I use the zoom platform to host my lessons and have an online calendar that students usually book from.
Please message and I shall do my best to accommodate both of our needs and hopefully we are suited for maths lessons together!

INDIVIDUAL ONLINE TUITION FOR UNIVERSITY STUDENTS
UNDERGRADUATE, POSTGRADUATE, OR PHD STUDENTS:

I can help you with all aspects of academic work.
Preparing for an exam? I also help students with REVISION, LEARNING, MEMORISATION, and EXAMINATION SUCCESS.

I have many years of experience teaching ACADEMIC ENGLISH AS A SECOND LANGUAGE (and in many cases third or even fourth) to university students and mature students. I am a certified TEFL teacher.
My approach is STUDENT- and GOAL-ORIENTED. Tutoring will be carefully tailored to the needs and abilities of the individual student in order to MAXIMISE your LEARNING POTENTIAL AND CREATIVITY, greatly improve your UNDERSTANDING AND SKILLS, boost your CONFIDENCE, and, perhaps most importantly of all, ENJOY YOUR LEARNING EXPERIENCE.
I have been a professor, lecturer, and tutor at universities in the UK (Lancaster University, University of Bath, University of Western England), United States (Minnesota, Columbia NY), and South America (Universidad de Buenos Aires, Universidad de Belgrano) for the last 20 years. My main subjects have been philosophy, history, psychology, and physics, as well as social research methods and theory, including both qualitative and quantitative methods. For the last 13 years, I have also taught English language, critical theory and thinking, and discourse analysis, as well as teaching and supervising students. I have supervised and mentored many PHD students.
As co-founder and director of the John Dewey Center for Democracy and Education, affiliated with the Institute of Advanced Study, University of Minnesota, I have great interest in education as a means by which we discover what it means to be a human being and tap into our CREATIVITY AND INTELLIGENCE.
I am also a published author (13 books to date) and certified life coach.

I have been in the field of education for some years. I was trained for teaching at the Primary Education level, specialising in Teaching English as a Foreign Language at the University of Salamanca (Salamanca, Spain). Apart from spending 4 months in two Spanish schools developing my internship.
My focus lies on ensuring that children balance learning with fun in the classroom and building confidence in their own ability, maintaining a positive atmosphere, using creativity and following a communicative and meaningful approach.
As a teacher, I encourage and develop creativity in all children, ensuring each activity allows them to develop their confidence to be independent and active learners, utilising their knowledge and skills in order to achieve their best and learn about the world around them. My aim is to make my teaching as fun and interactive as possible, enabling their school experience to be meaningful, enjoyable and motivating. I celebrate both the successes of the children and the mistakes that form a vital part of a child’s learning as they explore their own talents and abilities. I have been developing a creative, engaging and enabling learning environment, both indoors and outdoors.

I teach English language and music. First, my experience of teaching music. I have extensive experience of working with students at all levels. I have undergraduate and postgraduate degrees in music. I have taught music for the Open University and currently teach music for Rose Bruford College of Theatre and Performance, where my specialty is the history of opera. I am also a senior member of the examinations team for music at the International Baccalaureate Organisation, with particular responsibility for the extended essay in music ( a subject I have written a guide on). My role with IBO involves setting the standard for the extended essay, in consultation with my colleagues, and then leading a team of examiners with the aim of ensuring that the standard is adhered to. I am a trustee of the Society for Music Analysis, the UK's leading learned society for the promotion of the study of music analysis. I have contributed papers to international conferences and founded Theory of Music Ltd a not-for-profit company which provides free and low-cost resources for the study of the history and theory of music. I have extensive experience of teaching online as well as face to face. I am particularly interested in teaching music history and theory.
Second, my experience of teaching English language. I have extensive experience of teaching adult students. I have taught corporate clients for the past 10 years and for the previous 4 years was an IELTS instructor for Aston American University. I taught students online worldwide and helped many students achieve the result they needed in the test. Lessons were usually conducted on zoom or Skype. I also wrote a PTE Academic Test of English course for Aston American. I have published degree level distance learning courses and occasional reviews, e.g. in the Times Higher Education Supplement. I very much enjoy meeting students from different cultures and helping them achieve their goals.

Approach to Tutoring
My approach to tutoring is targeted, efficient, bespoke, and relaxed. I believe that a confident learner is a successful learner, and I strive to create a supportive environment where students feel encouraged and motivated to learn. I tailor my lessons to each student's ability, structuring my questions and teaching methods to meet their individual needs.
Techniques and Teaching Methodology
I use a range of techniques to help students understand and retain complex mathematical concepts. These include:
Breaking down topics into manageable chunks Using real-life examples to illustrate mathematical principles Encouraging active learning through problem-solving and discussion Providing regular feedback and encouragement Focusing on exam technique and rubric to ensure students know what examiners are looking for
Typical Length of a Lesson
My lessons typically last 60 minutes, although this can be adjusted to suit individual students' needs.
Qualifications and Experience
I am a maths graduate from Aberystwyth University and a current data scientist in Bristol. I have experience helping 4 students achieve A*/A grades in Maths GCSE, and I am familiar with the major GCSE Maths exam boards, including Edexcel, AQA, and OCR.
Who are my Lessons For?
My lessons are designed for GCSE Maths students in the UK, typically aged 14-16. I am particularly suited to students who need help building confidence in maths, or who require additional support to achieve their desired grade.

Fom 1977-2003 I was a legal writer, editor and for 15 years, from 1988-2003 Managing Director of one of the UK's leading law book publishers, Jordan Publishing Ltd. In 2003 I retired from the business to pursue a lifelong ambition to teach English.

I have been a History teacher in a large secondary school for nearly 15 years. I have mainly taught History and EPQ but can also teach Religious Studies and Government and Politics. Having also been a Head of Year I am understanding that all students learn in a different way and that a tutor can help to recognise effective ways that individuals learn and maximise them in a focussed environment. I have a great love for the humanities subjects and will be an enthusiastic and welcoming tutor for you, whatever your needs are.
