/ Matthew H.
Before I started as a teacher in school, I had worked for many years as a tutor, concentrating on Gcse and A level History for a wide range of different exam boards. Since 2001 I have taught history in all years from 7 to 13 in an independent school and have gained extensive experience of preparing pupils for exams as well as stimulating their interest in the subjects taught. I always aim to stretch them as well as support them in their learning and to promote enjoyment of the learning process while pushing for the highest possible level of attainment. I have extensive experience as an examiner, particularly for Edexcel/Pearson and also as a moderator for coursework and this has informed my teaching.
With many years helping to provide pastoral support as a sixth form tutor, I have gained valuable experience in addressing the needs and problems faced by young people facing some of the biggest challenges of their lives. I have also given help preparing for university applications and have provided interview practice, including for Oxbridge applications. Together with this, I have supervised ambitious sixth formers as they navigate the demands of EPQs.
Finally, as a practicing artist with extensive knowledge of art and the context in which it is produced, I have taught the history of art for many years while encompassing the study of painting, sculpture, prints and architecture from many different epochs and locations,
I'm currently working as the Head of Humanities at The Bourne Academy and have been teaching Edexcel and WJEC History for over 10 years locally. I've also worked as an exam associate for Edexcel for 6 years marking summer exams. I feel that I understand the specifications for Medicine, Germany, Cold War and Elizabeth extremely well and would feel comfortable adapting my knowledge to meet the requirements for other exam board specifications. I've also been instructing on AQA Alevel Cold War and the British Empire for over 5 years and have also served as an examiner.
If a longer term tutoring relationship is established, students will get access to a bespoke Google Classroom with lessons and resources designed to promote maximum success and independence.
My passion for History drives much of who I am and consider myself a good communicator, highly motivational and proficient with one to one intervention. When I'm not teaching I love to run outdoors on hills, travel and spend time with my chocolate labrador.

However, I would look forward to teaching any topic area as the relevant skills remain the same regardless of topic.
Hi there! I'm Pip. I'm currently a secondary school Geography teacher at a school in Dorset, teaching KS3, GCSE and A Level. I'm originally from Northumberland, but have been living in Dorset since 2018. Prior to embarking on a teaching career in 2017, I worked for 8 years in London, for the YMCA, The Scout Association and Raleigh International, running volunteering programmes for young people.
I am able to provide online support for students completing home learning set during the lockdown, or provide additional resources to support learning. I have experience coaching GCSE and A Level students in revision and exam technique, as well as supervising A Level independent investigations. I am also offering English and History tutoring for primary-age/KS3.
I look forward to hearing from you; please feel free to send me a message for further information or to discuss.

I have taught widely across the whole of Key Stage 2 but specialise particularly in Year 5 and 6 and ensuring that all pupils are academically, socially and mentally ready and prepared for the transition to secondary education. This is vital to ensure that they continue to fulfil their potential and make the most out of opportunities available to them.
