Additional information and experience - Jill D.

Opting out of schools was to enable me to focus on my vocation- to teach. I have never needed to advertise as a local tutor as word of mouth recommendations have been constant and consistent. I have undertaken courses and I follow the National Curriculum in detail.

I teach from Ks2 up to Ks4 in English Language English Literature Mathematics and Numeracy

my approach is friendly and Informal- for children learn best when they are safe relaxed and not under pressure. To date I have had 315 students spend from 1-6 years with me. I ensure I work alongside the school and their current topics/ subjects so my pupils have an extra support. My aim is to help children learn and to help them find the confidence and self belief to achieve the best exam results possible.
I do half termly tests to consolidate learning regularly. Each child has individual IEP that caters specifically for them- with differentiation where needed. Each lesson is evaluated in detail and records available for parents at any time. More recently I have been using Teams as a platform for online learning in addition to face to face lessons- this is something I will maintain - accessibility for students and parents alike is paramount and any method that improves communication is a good thing! 1-2-1 Tutoring- says what it does on the tin. Just your child and me during our lessons- my only prerequisite is that they humour me by sniggering at my very bad jokes! . Learning should be fun and my personal approach to teaching/ tutoring works. At gcse the pupils through my hands ( working hard at school also of course) average a 96% Grades A-C in English Lit English Lang as well as Mathematics and Numeracy. :)

please note- the reason I cannot travel is the sheer amount of lessons I have after school. For older students or adult learners travel would be possible but not after 3 pm which is when most of my lessons take place
