Hello there,
Raising the academic attainment of students has been a deep passion and successful achievement - as a founding former headteacher of a school for 4- 16-year-olds (ten years), a teacher, and a tutor. I have recent English teaching experience at a school (and remotely), in addition to marking GCSE English Language and literature papers. Therefore I am at ease in teaching both key stages three and four students. Over a ten-year period, 98% of my tutees have gained entry into the elite Grammar Schools (a few students gaining scholarships each year too). During the last two years, 97% of my English Language tutees have achieved levels 7-9 in GCSE English Language and 96% in GCSE English Literature.
I am well resourced in teaching face to face or online. An initial consultation with parents, the tutee, in addition to a view of the school reports enables me to gather necessary information about each student. Importantly, the tutorials enable me to get first-hand knowledge of each student enabling me to plan my lessons for the individual.
I look forward to working with you to raise the attainment of your child.

* Developing skills in maths and English
* Improving confidence in abilities
* Supporting with SATs preparation
* Preparing for 11 plus exams
* Helping pupils reach age related targets
* Developing the skills of pupils who are classed as gifted and talented
* Reinforcing understanding of the school curriculum
Thorough my lessons I aim to instil in pupils a love of learning, support them in achieving their goals and help them to develop the skills they need to fulfil their potential.

I began teaching whilst studying for a PhD 25 years' ago. I worked as a classroom teacher in university/college/and sixth-form environments for over 15 years, latterly as a manager, before deciding to work freelance after moving onto my narrowboat. In the last 6 years I have been working as a private tutor with clients aged from 15 to 55, at subject levels ranging from GCSE to post-graduate.
I love working with individuals and enabling them to recognise their potential within subjects they have previously struggled with. I have often found that, as my experience includes working as an examiner at GCSE and A-level, I am able to explain concepts and subject areas in a way that learners grasp easily in relation to passing exam assessment objectives. Learners often find that they can jump grade boundaries easily, once these assessment objectives have been understood, and they suddenly 'get' what the exam question is asking for...
For me, the key to assessment success is confidence and I therefore work hard to build up a learner's confidence so that they can express their ideas clearly and efficiently within the assessment context they are being examied within.
I work using a number of online platforms (Zoom; Skype; FaceTime etc.) and charge per hour of support provided. This can be in 1-2-1 sessions online, or via email support (for example, feedback on assignments or other work), or a combination of both. I sometimes work with learners for a few sessions on a single assignment or over a period of years across an entire qualification, and have many 'returning learners' who come back to me (sometimes after years) for further support and advice.
I have a First Class degree in English Literature, a Masters in Film History (with Distinction), and nearly 3 decades of classroom experience as a teacher, manager, examiner, and private tutor.
I can support with English Language, English Literature, Media, Film, Photography, Communication Studies and other related subject areas.
I can provide assessment advice, feedback, exam preparation, explanation of key theories and concepts, editing, and proofreading.
I provide a safe and supportive learning environment in which you, or you child, will flourish.
My hourly rate for tutoring is set intentionally low, despite my wealth of experience, as living on a boat is relatively cheap and I wish for ordinary people to be able to access my support.

Hello!
I have worked in a small SEN school for the past six years as an English lead, delivering the KS2 - KS4 curriculum to my students. Over the past year, I have progressed within my role and become the Centre Manager within the Senior Leadership Team. Whilst working at my current school, I have become a Designated Safeguarding Lead and Safer Recruitment Trained. I am responsible for writing and reviewing the school's policies, managing the staff team and ensuring the school and teachers comply to government legislation.
I enjoy teaching and am passionate about ensuring the child fully understands the context of the lesson - I am willing to provide homework and extra tasks to support them.
Having worked in a SEN school, I can adapt my teaching style to suit the needs of the child and will always promote a positive wellbeing throughout the lessons.

I spent two years teaching year 1 and seven years teaching Reception. Early reading and writing is a specialism of mine, along with teaching phonics and spelling, working with children who have English as an additional language and children with special educational needs.
I like to make learning as fun and as practical as possible to ensure that children are engaged and enjoy what they are doing. Using practical resources to support Maths and Science, linking reading and writing to experiences that children can relate to and enjoy!
I look forward to hearing from you!

Having worked as a tutor for over 5 years, I have a wealth of experience in various exam boards and subjects. I believe lessons should be engaging and interesting for both the student and tutor, in order to facilitate the best learning experience. Normally, I like to use exam-style questions in order to gauge the student’s knowledge and work on their weaker topics, enabling them to answer questions confidently and clearly- gaining higher marks.
A lot of students could be excellent at a subject, if they are properly engaged. As someone who is passionate about tutoring and equally wants your child to do well, your child will enjoy their lesson whilst learning key tips to ace their exams. There is no room for lengthy explanations, dull note-taking or constant listening in my lessons.
As a child, I remember hating certain subjects because the teacher made the lesson really boring and unengaging. After independent study at A-Level and university, I realised how interesting some topics were and the importance of keeping students interested, which essentially means being interested as a tutor yourself.
Success comes with patience and perseverance.
As a teacher for the past 6 years I have had the privilege of teaching students from different backgrounds, ages and mixed abilities. I absolutely enjoy my work and seeing the students progress.

Hello!!
My name is Iris. I am on track to go to University this coming autumn, reading Psychology. Over the course of the last two years, I have completed six A-Levels - Russian, French, Computing, Politics, Maths, and Further Maths. This has made me into an organised and reliable person capable of quality time-management.
At GCSE, I did Maths, English Language, English Literature, Religious Studies, Physics, Chemistry, Biology, French, Russian, Latin, and History, and promptly fell in love with Maths (which is why I took three STEM-heavy subjects for A-Level). I am fully confident in my ability to explain concepts that may be difficult for some students, because I remember being in the same position as them; despite my love for Maths, there were still times when I found it difficult. I find having gone through those ruts myself beneficial to my overall grasp on the subject.
I am offering tutor help in GCSE Maths, English Language, and English Literature to anyone who has begun their course and feels like they need a boost. Having tutored for a couple of years with the students in lower school in various subjects, I have come to have my own system, which I will apply to online tutoring, as well:
1) First, we must LEARN the skills that allow us to answer questions well, ie how to structure an essay emphatically, how to pick out quotations, the various formulae that we use in solving mathematical equations. We therefore have a solid foundation that we can always fall back on.
2) Second, we must APPLY these skills to different situations, ie reading through set texts and poems together, becoming more comfortable with analysing unseen texts and poetry on the fly, talk through example maths questions that use the formulae we learned in Step (1). This gives the student a lot more confidence in their own ability and means that they are not left floundering when we move on to Step (3).
3) Finally, we must TEST your knowledge, ie going through past papers, writing essays, and completing worksheets. This allows us to test our understanding of the content and skills we learned, and aknowledge and tackle any outstanding weaknesses.
As much as tutoring is an opportunity for my potential students, it is also an opportunity for me. I love tutoring and working with kids and teenagers, and want to be a teacher in the future. I am happy to work individually or in groups, over Zoom or any other similar online platforms, set and mark homework, and create personalised teaching plans for the students that we will adhere to week by week. My number one priority is to make sure you achieve the grade you want or need.
