/ Philippa W.
Hello! I'm Philippa an experienced and very patient tutor specializing in a diverse range of subjects: English, History, Archaeology, Anthropology, Science, and Biology, for students from Year 1 through to University level. My comprehensive academic background includes Bachelor's and Master's degrees in Forensic Anthropology from Liverpool John Moores University, providing me with a robust analytical foundation and a deep understanding of scientific principles, historical context, and human studies.
I believe in creating a supportive and encouraging learning environment where every student feels comfortable and empowered. My teaching philosophy is centered on building genuine understanding and confidence, rather than just memorization. I am particularly proud of my experience working with students with dyslexia; I employ tailored, multi-sensory approaches and adaptive strategies to make learning accessible, engaging, and effective for those with specific learning needs. I understand the unique challenges and strengths that come with dyslexia and am committed to helping students find their most effective learning pathways.
Whether you need help breaking down complex historical events, understanding intricate scientific concepts, improving your English essay writing, or delving into archaeological theories, I personalize each lesson to suit your individual learning style and academic goals. My aim is to make challenging topics understandable, enjoyable, and relevant, fostering critical thinking and problem-solving skills that extend beyond the classroom. I offer flexible online and in person lessons, and I am dedicated to helping you achieve your full academic potential.
My name is Olivia, I am 30 years old and have 8+ years of teaching and tutoring children of all ages.
I am a qualified secondary teacher and have experience teaching children from 5+ to 18.
I specialise in KS2 Sats/Eleven plus, KS3 Humanities, GCSE History and Politics at A-Level.
As a committed, driven and passionate teacher and I tailor my lessons to individual needs, I am patient, approachable and flexible to the pupils and I have experience working with children from reception all the way to 18+ with a range of SEND in a range of Lancashire schools.
I have a Politics degree from a good university, 10 GCSE's A*-C and 3 A-Levels from Lancashire's leading independent school.
I work primarily with videos/visuals, workbooks, textbooks and power points, I encourage a lot of independent learning, reading and note making, researching information and critical thinking, with my assistance and my resources to the older years (16+) which also enables prep for university/further education. For GCSE and younger, I tailor power points and resources to the individuals needs. I believe I am a fun, engaging and adaptable teacher who can relate to children of all ages due to my experience.
If you are interested in home lessons, I provide the resources and work books to aid revision for SATS/11+ amongst other subjects.
GCSE History, Politics at A-Level and 11+ are my specialisms and i have worked closely with the EDEXCEL exam board for History and Politics, and I have some knowledge of AQA. I have also taught RE at KS3/GCSE and Geography at KS3. Working with all students is rewarding for me, I love being a teacher and seeing pupils flourish and reach their full potential.
I’m coming to the end of my primary teacher training, and have a vast experience of working with SEND/SEMH needs including ASD/ADHD so I’m able to tailor my teaching to be inclusive and accessible for all! :)
