Prior to teaching I have worked in life science Reasearch and Development and in Biopharamceutical research, sales and marketing. I also worked a part-time voluntary teaching assistant in primary and seconday schools for 2 years. In 2014 I decided to change career completely to become a science teacher, so I trained at Kings College, graduating with my PGCE in 2015.
My background prior to teaching brings additional experience and skills to my teaching. Chemistry is my specialist subject. I have taught and tutored all sciences successfully to years 7 to 11, and have taught and tutored Chemistry and Biology at A level.

I have been a qualified teacher since 2009 and taught in a variety of state and private schools in Kent, London, and Surrey. I graduated from the University of Cambridge with a 2:1 in Theology and Religious Studies and was awarded my MA in 2010.
I have worked as a private music (violin and piano) teacher since I was in the sixth form, and, since qualifying as a teacher , have tutored Philosophy, English Literature, and Religious Studies to a variety of students internationally (online) and in person (locally).
I have a baby daughter so cannot curretly offer tuition at my house but have lots of availability online outside of school hours or in school holiday time.
I have an excellent record of helping students to improve their understanding (and grades) in Philosophy/RS and English, and of seeing students through to Grade 8 on Piano and Violin, with Distinction.
My A Levels (all A grades) are in: English Literature (I also received a commendation from the exam board for attaining one of the top five scores in the country); Music; RS; Media Studies; General Studies.
I am a life Fellow of the Westminster Abbey Institute.
I have Grade VIII Distinction (ABRSM) on Violin and Piano.
I passed the National Professional Qualification for Senior Leaders in 2018.
My tutoring style is responsive to the needs of my student(s) but expect to be stretched and challenged!
Whether teaching you English, Music, or Philosophy, we will (in the words of Plato from the "Meno", "share the inquiry together")

Design & Technology teacher in Aldershot, UK.
Offering GCSE/A Level support, revision and exam practice.
FREE introductory lesson to assess knowledge and priorities - 45 minutes
My online lessons are usually an hour in length, but I can be adaptable. I have 25 years experience teaching Design and Technology in Secondary schools and a private tutor since March 2023. I support GCSE (Y10/11) and A level Product Design (Y12/13).
Since leaving mainstream teaching five years ago I have worked as a STEM tutor for a charity. My main role is to develop and provide workshops including coding, engineering, electronics and sustainability for all ages. But one task I had was to teach a Year 10 student Design and Technology for a year as his school did not have a DT specialist. This made me realise that I could use my experience to tutor other students privately.

She spends most of her time teaching others how to play the wide range of brass instruments that can be found in orchestras, brass bands and marching bands. For over 30 years she played in the 'Brighton and Hove City Brass' band where she started her musical career. This is not only a profession, but a hobby as well. Sian now plays in a ten piece ensemble 'Brass Fusion' performing with other 'ex bandsmen' on a casual, non-contesting, fun basis.
Although Sian primarily takes brass instrumental lessons, she does regularly run a theory class for all instrumentalists at one of the major schools. She also tries to cover basic theory points within her instrumental lessons as many players, not just brass, do not realise that once they obtain Grade Five practical they cannot move on until they have passed the Grade Five Theory exam. This can take quite a while if players have not covered any theory at all during their lessons. At present Sian has a 100% pass rate on all practical exams that her current students have taken.
Another string to her bow (!) is that she has run several recorder groups at one school as well as temporarily taking Year One music appreciation classes for a term. She also currently runs two brass ensembles at one of the major schools. Sian strives to help pupils obtain their graded examinations but at the same time keeping the playing fun and non pressured. The most important thing to her is that her pupils continue to enjoy playing and for it not to become a chore. To assist with the enjoyment of playing Sian runs a training band for anyone wishing to gain experience in group playing. All the terminology, harmony, sounds etc which are not experienced with individual lessons. The playing of 'non tune' parts where counting and listening are essential.
Sian is also Musical Director of one of the southern England's brass bands, where she regularly appears with them at local fetes, concerts, and garden parties. She is also a committee member for the Incorporated Society of Musicians.

I like to make my lessons as interactive and enjoyable as possible. There is no mandatory curriculum involved in my teaching; I focus entirely on your individual needs. For example, if you need speaking practice, grammar guidance, assistance preparing for a job interview, or are preparing for the FCE and CAE exams or IELTS, then I can help. (I charge more for exam preparation)
Arranging classes is easy and flexible to help busy working people.
My students have come from many countries including; Afghanistan, Brazil, Bulgaria, China, Croatia, Czech Republic, Germany, India, Nepal,Italy, Peru, Poland, South Korea, Slovakia, Spain, Thailand, Turkey and Ukraine.
I am prepared to travel up to 10 miles from GU51 and I charge an additional £2 per mile from GU51 with a minimum travel charge of £20
I teach adult international students from beginner (A1) to proficient (C2) face to face and online. The first meeting for new students is free.
If you live in the Fleet area, we can meet face to face; or if this is not suitable, we can meet online by skype or zoom.

I have over 15 years experience in Teaching, and over 12 years experience in Private Tutoring. I currently offer both face-to-face in person tutoring for 1:1 or small groups. I cater for each child's specific needs through appropriate differentiation, and according to their individual interests. I strive to make the learning fun and engaging, and adapt the lesson as we go to ensure the most enjoyment and motivation. My lessons are usually 1 hour long, depending on the needs and abilities of the child and I cover the ages from KS1 up to GCSE in both English and Maths. I also offer home schooling sessions to individuals who are unable to access the mainstream education system, whether it be from a SEND need, a preference or from anxiety, for example. These sessions cover the Core subjects as well as teaching Life Skills such as cooking, woodwork and sewing etc. In addition to this, I offer discrete tutoring for adults in Maths and English (Reading).

Hello! I'm Louisa, and I have had the privilege of being a dedicated primary teacher for over a decade, with a strong emphasis on Early Years and Key Stage 1 (KS1) education. My journey in education has been marked by my passion for nurturing young minds and helping them build a strong foundation for lifelong learning.
Educational Background and Experience:
I hold a PGCE in Education, which has equipped me with the knowledge and pedagogical skills required for effective teaching in primary education. My extensive teaching experience spans over 10 years, during which I have honed my expertise in early childhood and KS1 education. I have had the opportunity to teach in two outstanding primary schools, where I consistently maintained high standards of education and created a positive learning environment.
Areas of Expertise: I offer specialized tutoring sessions in the following key areas:
Handwriting Improvement: As a primary teacher, I understand the importance of legible and fluent handwriting. I provide comprehensive handwriting sessions to help students develop fine motor skills and improve their penmanship.
Phonics Mastery: Phonics is a crucial skill for early readers. I employ effective phonics techniques to help young learners build strong reading and pronunciation skills, setting them on the path to becoming confident readers.
Reading Enrichment: Reading is the gateway to knowledge and imagination. I tailor reading sessions to meet each student's unique needs, fostering a love for reading and comprehension.
Mathematics Enhancement: Mathematics is a fundamental subject, and I make it engaging and accessible to young learners. I provide personalized math sessions to strengthen foundational math skills and promote mathematical confidence.
My Teaching Approach:
I believe in creating a supportive and nurturing learning environment where each student feels valued and encouraged to reach their full potential. My teaching style is interactive, engaging, and adapted to the individual learning styles of my students. I prioritize building strong communication with both students and parents to ensure progress is monitored and goals are achieved.
Why Choose Me as Your Tutor:
My extensive experience in primary education, especially in Early Years and KS1, gives me a deep understanding of the developmental needs of young learners. I am committed to helping students not only succeed academically but also grow as confident, independent, and motivated learners. My track record of teaching in outstanding primary schools demonstrates my commitment to excellence in education.
If you're looking for a dedicated and experienced tutor to support your child's educational journey in handwriting, phonics, reading, or math, I would be honored to work with you.

Hello! I'm a music teacher with 5 years of experience and I specialise in harmony/theory, composition, and jazz improvisation. Whether you/ your child is a complete beginner, or you're a professional musician looking to 'add more musical ingredients to the cupboard', or anywhere inbetween, I'd love to hear from you so we can sort out a free taster lesson.
If you are completely new to music, the piano/keyboard (or the drums) is the best place to start. The layout of the keyboard forms the basis for our understanding of harmony and theory, without which, learners of instruments (other than drums) will be at a significant disadvantage.
Things I can help with:
- inspiring young beginners to take up music-making, with a joyful, creative and holistic approach.
- electric bass (bass guitar) lessons, beginner to intermediate
- saxophone lessons, beginner to advanced
- provide a method and structure to beginner/intermediate students looking to take the next step with piano, saxophone, or electric bass
- inspire teens and adults to delve into the world of music with no prior experience
- help intermediate - advanced pianists develop better technique, up to grade 8 level
- provide a comprehensive training in jazz harmony, advanced rhythm, classical composition, songwriting, or improvisation
Things I can't help with:
- Diploma-level classical piano
- Advanced virtuoso electric bass
- Forcing students to learn things they are not interested in
- Forcing students to try to play things they are not yet ready for
- Someone who is looking for the traditional 'strict piano teacher' who doesn't let you choose your own music, punishes you for making mistakes, and has a rigid teaching style that is not adapted to each student

I have been teaching for 5 years and quickly became head of department in a secondary school in Surrey. I have been teaching the AQA syllabus to years 10 and 11 and have also designed a whole curriculum for years 7 through to 11. Therefore I have a variety of resources and wide range of specialist topics including humanand physical geography. Prior to becoming a teacher I worked as an ecologist, field biologist in Mauritius and worked for a number of conservation organisations such as the RSPB. I can therefore make cross curricular links with biology and citizenship.
