I am an experienced tutor who has been teaching English to students for over ten years. I specialise in KS3 and GCSE however also have many KS2 and A-Level students, too. I am very familiar with the different exam boards, specifically Edexcel, AQA and OCR. I an NTP qualified tutor with a fully enhanced DBS. I work closely with various agencies and councils, and local high schools in Nottingham, tutoring students individually and in groups. I also work with students with additional needs, from learning diabilities to behavioural challenges.
I am passionate about reading and writing. I aim to encourage students to strive for their best, to gain a deeper understanding of texts and to improve their writing skills so that their confidence flourishes.
I run various creative writing groups for different ages, and also offer intensive week long tuition for students who need to catch up in specific areas.

Brief:
Expert online tuition from an examiner in English, Psychology and History for all levels and abilities including: KS2, KS3, KS3, KS4, KS5. IELTS, IGCSE/GCSE, A Levels, University students, Academic and Business English
Specialist in Home-educated students and students struggling with understanding knowledge and acquiring skills.
I have PGCE, MA in Literature, MSc in Psychology and TESOL
I am an examiner for many Boards over many decades so have an unique insight into exams.
Detailed:
If you are aiming to achieve a top grade in exams, want to gain a greater understanding of sentences or learn quick strategies for memorising your literature texts, then I can help.
I use lots of films clips and audio to reinforce understanding which students enjoy. I am not a Powerpoint tutor as I feel this isn't teaching but lecturing and that's not my style. I may dip into the odd Powerpoint slide but this will be to support your learning in a purposeful way but I rarely do this. Another difference is I offer weekly homework which is marked with understandable comments. Many parents choose to have this service too as their children often don't have regular or systematically marked homework so it is a way of regularly assessing so I can pick up any issues early.
I also have a TESOL qualification which means I have expert knowledge of English language so can competently teach foreign language students or I can draw on this knowledge to clarify rules of grammar etc. With respect to older students, I frequently teach Academic English ,whether it is helping with dissertations or preparing for IELTS.
My second specialism is Psychology and I teach this from GCSE through to and including Postgraduates as I have a MSc in Psychology. This also supports any other subject I teach as I have a detailed understanding of how memory and learning interact. It also informs me when building strategies for those who suffer from exam nerves, anxiety or barriers generally with their learning.
I have a gsoh and parents often comment on laughter coming from the room when I'm tutoring so very quiet or introverted students can be assured I'm very human and whilst I have the highest skills and knowledge, I struggled when at school so I'm always supportive and caring in my approach.
Finally, I teach many home-educated youngsters so know how to support the whole family in any challenges they may face.
I do hope to hear from you soon. Sally

I was a police officer for 26 years and spent the final 7 years of my service as a trainer. I subsequently took a CELTA course and earned the qualification to teach English as a Foreign Language. I have taught at a number of Summer and Easter schools in the UK, and undertaken short contracts at language schools in Vietnam and Mexico.
During the COVID 19 lockdown I volunteered as an online teacher for the school in Vietnam, giving them one 90 minute lesson a week from home using Microsoft Teams.
I have also tutored several adults on a one-to-one basis and will always adapt both the content and style of lesson to suit the needs of the learner. I am happy to help for short term goals, for example IELTS or the Driving Theory Test, long term ambitions or just conversational English as required.

Working in secondary school almost 17 years (local school and overseas) granted me valuable opportunities to teach a variety of courses, including EAL English, Business Studies, Liberal Studies (Humanities), Economics, Geography and Integrated Business. Among the most satisfying experiences for me as a teacher has been instructing student to understand, analyze and practice their knowledge properly and successfully.
Through my teaching thus far, I have found the method of facilitating rather than dictating to be a highly beneficial style of teaching.

As stated earlier, I have been helping fellow students and friends improve their grades. I am fluent in English, good at academic and formal writing, referencing and debates ( I participated in a few while I was in highschool and did two as exams while I was in college at Nottingham Trent International College). I did well in those debates and this can be proved by my grades from NTIC (attached above). I can also help prepare a student for the IELTS test if they are required to do one before admission. I’m fluent in Swahili which I can also tutor in.

I am a qualified Nottingham based primary teacher and SENCO who has children who are being home educated and am currently supporting children being home educated in Nottingham and all around the country.
I now am using my experience to support children who would like to make accelerated progress in the comfort of their own home and through attending weekly sessions.
Through My Own Tutor Online Programme, I offer a 24/7 Online Home Study Programme for only £10 a week which includes ALL subjects!! It Covers all key stages and subjects from year R/1 to 11 up to GCSE and follows the national curriculum. Again this can be supplemented by weekly support in our tuition centre.
Concentrating on Maths and English, between 5 and 20 tasks are set each week to plug gaps in learning and offer further challenge to those students who require it. To further support this students can access a freephone teacher helpline to take the pressure away from parents and carers.
As mentioned we follow the national curriculum, do not come with the costs of other tuition centres in around West Bridgford and also have the advantage of being available 24/7.
I would love to show the system and happy to pop to see you and talk through over the phone. Once you see it you will understand the impact that it has on children whatever their ability level.
