Teaching is my passion. My purpose in life is to create a positive environment in the world. I love to teach children and students of any age group. I have also been associated with Brahma kumaris (World Spiritual Organisation) for 7 years. I have a profound understanding of my subjects, adeptly tailor instruction to diverse learning styles, fosters a positive and inclusive classroom environment and effective communication. I also encourages critical thinking and empower students. Over the past six years, I have had the privilege of teaching a wide range of subjects to students from diverse backgrounds. This experience has honed my ability to effectively communicate complex ideas, foster a positive learning environment, and adapt my teaching methods to individual student needs. Additionally, I recently authored my first book, "One Light and the Angelic World," which has further enhanced my knowledge and passion for sharing knowledge with others. Furthermore, my association with Brahma Kumaris, a world spiritual organization, for the last seven years has allowed me to develop a deep understanding of the holistic approach to education. I strongly believe in the importance of nurturing not only academic growth but also the emotional and spiritual well-being of students. I strive to create a supportive and inclusive classroom environment that encourages personal growth and inspires a love for learning.

I oversee the Sociology teaching of 200+ GCSE and A-Level students on a daily basis. In tutoring my clients I draw on this experience to swiftly diagnose core strengths and weaknesses in both knowledge and skills, before breaking down progressive steps on how to improve. I use my comprehensive understanding of mark schemes and criteria to show clients where and how they meet Assessment Objectives (AO skills) and where they fall short. Clients are provided with a variety of resources that can be used beyond tutoring sessions to develop their skills. I also draw on my 8 years experience as a 'real-life' sociologist in helping students understand complex sociological issues and concepts.

I am a highly experienced teacher of psychology and sociology with excellent track record on engagement and results and a past examiner for AQA psychology. Specialising in AQA psychology and AQA sociology, I have also taught/tutored Edexcel & IB psychology (standard and higher level) and OCR & WJEC sociology. Excellent resources to support students with tricky topics, help develop skills and allow stretch & challenge to meet the top mark bands. Follow me online on Facebook and Instagram as The Learning Navigator to access free resources including my special topic summary sheets called octals.
If you are struggling with the research methods components of the courses, I can demystify, explain these and build your confidence with mathematical skills/statistical testing. Not sure how to structure examination answers for the longer questions? I can help with that too. Extensive experience means I can deliver comprehensive examination skills and guidance along with detailed subject content.
I have a Masters degree in teaching and learning and enjoy working with students to develop effective learning strategies and build confidence. Study skills development is a speciality - work smarter, build confidence, achieve better!
I am tutoring full-time after many years working in schools and quickly became fully booked last year. I put a lot of work and preparation into sessions to tailor them specifically to my students' needs and have achieved excellent results in 2023 including an A grade in sociology for a student who missed the whole of Year 12 at school! Please enquire for more details and to book your free initial assessment.
Terms and conditions
I pride myself on building up a good working relationship with my clients. Since tutoring is normally for a period of some months as examinations approach and in the interests of fair play for both parties, I've set out some key points regarding charges and cancellations during the tutoring period.
Charges
A-Level sessions are delivered online weekly via Teams in one-hour blocks. Charges reflect my qualifications, experience and the way my sessions are tailored to each individual student’s needs, making them highly effective at boosting learning, confidence and grades. Knowing all the misconceptions and pitfalls on content and structuring examination questions makes all the difference and it is vital that tutoring is effective for the student.
I am happy to offer each new client one free initial assessment and discussion session to assess the needs and type of help required plus it gives you a chance to see how I work and fit in with your requirements. There is no obligation on either side to continue after this first session.
Cancellations Policy
Once a regular slot has been booked for the student, the same time every week, I will endeavour always to be available to tutor them. There is scope for discussion if a session needs to be rearranged (24 hours requested), subject to my availability.
From time to time, flexibility on both sides is required due to life events and unexpected occurrences. This may involve cancellation of a particular session or the need to reschedule and I will always try to accommodate if I can do so.
Currently working as a full time English teacher at a private school. My job isn't limited to teaching. My biggest priority, more than anything, is inspiring my students to realise their own potential. In my lessons, you'll learn not only how to pass your exams, you'll also learn how to develop a positive mindset that will help you find success as you go out into the world.
Chartered Psychologist with 18 years teaching and examining experience in Psychology. Also teaches sociology in Kettering, UK. Excellent track record of exam results
I am an A-level study studying Psychology, Sociology and History working at the predicted grades of A*AA.
I am working as a secondary school
Teacher in a grammar school and have done so for 9 years
Enthusiastic Geography specialist, with experience teaching Religious Studies and Sociology.
I have taught A Level Sociology for the past 16 years. Initially I taught on the OCR specification and when the A Levels were reformed I moved to AQA. I specialise in teaching crime and deviance and stratification, but also have a lot of experience with family, education and research methods topics. Historically I have taught culture, youth and global. I am adept at creating resources for students based on their learning needs and have trained as an A Level student coach. In this role I have supported individuals and groups with motivation, organisation and exam planning. I have experience tutoring A Level Politics. I also helped prepare students for applying to Oxbridge and Russell Group universities.
Students have benefitted from my positivity and excellent subject knowledge over my many years of teaching to gain very positive results for themselves, whether this is helping students move from A's to A* to students who have been working at an E who go on to achieve a C. I am confident with supporting students with additional needs and tailor approaches to their way of learning.

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.
