I am passionate about supporting students to achieve their potential. I love teaching, but get frustrated with the conventional classroom learning style as this is not suited to all students. You cannot measure the ability of a fish by watching it climb a tree. No two students are the same and therefore teaching and learning needs to be tailored to support the needs of the individual student. Working with students on a one-to-one basis is highly rewarding. I relish seeing my student’s succeed and improve their grades, but also, it provides me with an opportunity to discuss the subject more widely beyond the constraints of the specification and instil a passion for the subject in my students.
Tutoring Experience
I have 12 years experience in private tutoring at both GCSE and A Level in Economics and Business. I am familiar with and an examiner in the Edexcel exam board and AQA.
I have been teaching Economics and Business at GCSE and A Level in a Grammar School since 2013. I introduced GCSE Economics and ran that department successfully, with students achieving outstanding GCSE results significantly above the national average. My students have been known to achieve 87% A*-A grades or 8-9 grades at GCSE. Prior to this, I was responsible for introducing Economics at A level at a comprehensive school in Basildon. Before I moved to the UK, I taught Economics and Business at an independent school in Ireland.
Tutoring Approach
My sessions focus on establishing a core foundation to build confidence and knowledge. Economics is a hard subject. It is like learning a new language and those initial few weeks can be daunting. Students often get lost in the new terminology introduced in the first couple of weeks and this can be a reason for some students not continuing with the subject. By securing knowledge through a variety of interactive teaching techniques, students gain the confidence to access the more difficult parts of the specification.
As part of your sessions, all resources and materials will be provided. Work will be set as appropriate for you to complete and I will mark it and provide feedback. We will look at core content, exam technique and practice questions. There are many different issues which are likely to impact a student’s exam performance, but notably application of the subject in a wider context, the skills of analysis and evaluation and decoding the exam questions. These areas will be developed within our sessions and my years of experience have enabled me to devise strategies to address such areas successfully.
I have a wide range of experience in teaching a variety of subjects including:
English
Economics
Business
History
Psychology
Music
1-2-1 mentoring
Accounting
Law
EPQ supervising
I have experience working with all ability levels and a wealth of training and experience working with students who present with additional needs, including, anxiety, ASD, ADHD, ODD etc.
Please do not hesitate to get in touch if you have any questions. I will be more than happy to help you, and if I cannot help you, I am sure I know someone who can!

With over 15 years of dedicated experience as a Primary school teacher in Key Stage 1, I am passionate about creating a positive and nurturing learning environment that enables young learners to reach their full potential. My deep understanding of the KS1 curriculum, coupled with my commitment to individualized learning, allows me to support students in building strong foundational skills in reading, writing, and mathematics, as well as fostering curiosity in science and the arts.
Throughout my career, I have developed a teaching approach that is both creative and adaptable, ensuring that I meet the unique needs of each student. I take pride in my ability to tailor lessons that are engaging, interactive, and aligned with the child’s learning style, whether they thrive with visual aids, hands-on activities, or verbal discussions. My goal is not just to teach core skills but to instill a love of learning and confidence in my students that will last far beyond their early school years.
I am deeply committed to making learning a rewarding experience for every child I tutor. With patience, empathy, and an unwavering dedication to student success, I take pride in watching my students grow into confident, independent learners who are excited about their learning. I look forward to continuing to contribute to the academic and personal growth of KS1 students, helping them lay a solid foundation for lifelong learning.

I have earned my Diploma in Primary Education at the St. Joseph’s Teachers’ College and I have currently completed a Bachelor’s Degree in Primary Education at The Mico University College which has trained me to be an efficient and effective teacher. While studying at The Mico University College I Advanced in English Language, as well as completing an action research paper on “How can a Phonemic Awareness Intervention Program Help Students who are Reading Below Their Grade Level?”
I have also completed a course in special education which has equipped me with a reserve of knowledge that is pivotal to improve the holistic development of each learner. I am readily aware of the procedures and guidelines that govern students with learning difficulties and how to tailor these policies to create a conducive learning environment. Also, I possess the required skills to work collaboratively with all stakeholders to assess each learner and create the relevant Individualized Educational Plan (IEP).
I enjoy creating multi-sensory lessons with differentiated instructions and activities that cater to auditory, visual, tactile, and kinesthetic learners. As an advocate of student-centered learning and technology integration, I am optimistic that learners will discover their real fortes and capabilities as they become engaged in their learning to discover and create new knowledge. This approach will motivate students to become accountable, independent learners, critical thinkers, and collaborators.
Education is the foundation for young people to achieve success in all undertakings. Therefore, my greatest goal is to educate students and help them blossom into well-rounded and successful citizens for nation-building.

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.
