English Literature Tutor, Teacher
I originally trained and worked as a secondary school English teacher, but I found the pressure in schools led to teachers being overwhelmed with paperwork and the teaching element almost became a lesser priority. Now I prefer to focus on private tuition where my primary aim is teaching and enabling students to achieve. At Perfect Plus Tutoring, we strive to create an academic atmosphere which is enjoyable as well as beneficial. I offer private tuition to students in North Kent, Medway and Maidstone areas.
I have a team of tutors who are all DBS checked and either currently teach or have taught in schools.

I have been teaching for 22 years and have been successful in raising GCSE English results in my school from 53% to 89% in three years at level 4+. I specialise in helping students move from 3-4 and 3-5 at GCSE as well as helping students with A Level English Literature.
I am a supportive and approachable tutor and have over 10 years experience of tutoring as well as over 15 years being a GCSE English examiner for AQA.
I am happy to tutor online and face to face if the location suits.

My teaching career started in Moscow, where I worked for 8 years with adults and kids of all levels. My experience in Russia gave me the opportunity to study a foreign language, so I have a deep understanding of the frustrations and difficulties of language acquisition. I still attend online Russian classes, so I know exactly how it feels to be an online language learner. In 2011, I returned to the UK and started working freelance as an online English tutor. I found students by making videos on YouTube, and anyone who is interested in my teaching methodology should watch some of my lessons. I now have more than 500 English lessons on my YouTube channel.
For the last 4 years, I have been teaching English grammar to hundreds of UK English teachers as part of a Skills and Knowledge Enhancement course (SKE), funded by the Department for Education. In these classes, I give my colleagues tips on how to identify parts of speech, how to punctuate phrases and clauses, and how to recognize rhetorical devices. I have enjoyed this opportunity immensely, as it has provided me with a better insight into the nuances of English grammar.
I have also written two books over the last few years. One of these books is aimed at TEFL students, and deals with vocabulary (Visual Phrasal Verbs), while the other is written for natives, and deals with grammar and punctuation.
I teach English as a Foreign Language to all ages, levels, and nationalities. I am a big fan of the communicative approach, so my online classes are geared towards sharpening your speaking skills; in each lesson, I encourage students to retell an English book or film that they have recently seen, while I listen carefully and correct the mistakes. For many repeated mistakes, I simply make a gesture to let the student know about the error, and in this way, students get the chance to correct their own mistakes. During the classes, I make notes on any errors and new vocabulary, and I send a copy of this lesson feedback after the class. For homework, I set reading, writing, and grammar tasks. I also give links to YouTube videos from my channel, in which I explain the grammar or vocabulary topic in great detail so that students have access to my explanations, even when we are not physically 'in a lesson'. In addition to hundreds of online video lessons, I have a vocabulary book for learning phrasal verbs.
I also teach grammar to natives who would like to deepen their understanding of punctuation and rhetoric. I use my own course book, which focuses on how to identify different grammatical structures in typical GCSE texts (Animal Farm, Lord of the Flies, Frankenstein, 1984). This course has been extremely popular among the teachers that I work with. I am confident that I can teach the same course to anyone that wants to improve their use of English.

Hello! My name is Lucy, I am a qualified Primary Education and TESOL teacher and extensive experience teaching a range of ages, from 4 years old to 44! I have a combination of passion, high-quality education, and practical teaching experience in a range of countries and subjects. I currently work full time as a Primary School teacher, with my enthusiasm and expertise lying in the Early Years Foundation Stage and the Year 2 curriculum. My job means that I have gained extensive, first-hand experience in working with learners who have special educational needs for example ADHD, ODD, Autism, SPD, and EAL, and have developed a range of strategies in order to deliver effective learning to children with these needs. I have taught many key KS1-KS3 subjects including English Language/Literature, Maths, Phonics, and English as a Foreign Language in the U. K, Spain, and Hungary. In accordance with my qualifications, I have planned and performed multiple lessons observed by an external moderator, in order to assure the high quality of my teaching. This includes a recent OFSTED inspection in October 2017, where I was commended on my strong relationships with my students and effective differentiated teaching strategies for a range of abilities. I have studied English with Spanish at the University of Southampton and completed a year abroad at the Universitat de Barcelona, where I studied linguistics. My modules include “Teaching English as a Foreign Language”, “Semantics”, “English Phonetics and Phonology”, “Translation”, and “Introduction to Linguistics”. I believe these modules give me an excellent theoretical knowledge base in order to teach English Language and Literature, with the practical experience of developing my Spanish language skills abroad in Spain. In Barcelona, I taught private English lessons to a self-built client base of Spanish speakers, aged 6 to 42 years old. Within tutoring, I had to create individual lesson plans and be flexible with my strategy, as each person had a different learning style and learning target. This means I am aware of different learning styles, such as visual, practical, abstract, and kinetic, and can adapt my techniques according to the individual student. In Barcelona, I also volunteered as a teacher at a Sunday school. The age range was from 2 years old to 11 years old, and we practiced learning Spanish and English through games, songs, art, and other creative methods. I also organised fun day activities such as a Water Play Day, and an Easter Fun Day. I adore working with children, and always form strong bonds with their families. In addition, as I lived abroad and I speak a foreign language, I believe I can truly sympathise with students on the difficulties of learning an unfamiliar subject. This empathy makes me a great teacher, as I am able to put myself in the shoes of my students and help them to overcome their struggles. I look forward to hearing from you and helping you or your loved one towards your personal learning journey. I pride myself on my excellent communication skills and will endeavor to respond to your messages as quickly and as professionally as possible. Together we will work on creating a personal, realistic, and achievable learning journey that will help you to achieve your educational goals.

I can teach Maths and English up to KS3. I have, over the years, acquired various strengths and strategies of driving children's learning. I know the importance of teaching children information in small chunks and I am always mindful of the effects and dangers of cognitive overload. I am constantly researching to make sure that my teaching always incorporate new research findings and ensure that children succeed and even excel beyond expectations.
I can differentiate work and always allow children to start from what they already know and progress into the unknown with confidence and a positive growth mindset. I believe that every child can progress in their learning if their needs are correctly addressed.
