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.

My last post as a Learning Support Teacher involved working with children with an identified Special Need eg: Autism, Dyslexia, Dyscalcula and/or Behavioural Problems. Also EAL children as I am also a qualified TEFL teacher.
I love helping children to learn and to begin to understand and master concepts that have previously challenged them.
I am patient and always allow the child to learn at their pace to ensure they have mastered each stage fully.
I teach in a fun way to engage those children who may find learning more challenging and to ensure progress.
I aim to foster a desire to learn, to problem solve, to question and to succeed.

Welcome to my music tutoring profile! I am an experienced piano teacher who is passionate about sharing my love for music with students of all ages and skill levels. Whether you're an absolute beginner or an advanced musician, I am here to help you unlock your musical potential. With a deep appreciation for all genres of music, I particularly have a soft spot for jazz and classical music. These genres have shaped my own musical journey and have allowed me to develop a comprehensive understanding of music theory, improvisation, and composition. I aim to instill the same appreciation and enthusiasm for these genres in my students, while also exploring other styles according to their interests. As a seasoned performer, I bring a wealth of practical knowledge and performance techniques to my teaching. I understand the challenges and joys of live performances, and I incorporate this experience into my lessons. I am also a firm believer in the power of education and self-directed learning. I encourage my students to explore their musical interests, set personal goals, and develop their own unique musical voice. When it comes to teaching, my style is enthusiastic, fast-paced, and varied. I believe that a dynamic and engaging approach fosters a love for music and accelerates the learning process. I utilise the Paul Harris simultaneous learning method, which integrates multiple aspects of music learning, such as technique, theory, sight-reading, and ear training, simultaneously. This holistic approach ensures that students develop a well-rounded understanding of music and are really able to see their progress in each practice session. The first lesson, which lasts 45 minutes, is completely free and comes with no obligation to continue. This allows potential students to get a feel for my teaching style and determine if it aligns with their learning preferences. For the convenience of my students, I am more than willing to travel to their location in Southwater and the surrounding areas. I believe that learning in a familiar and comfortable environment can enhance the overall experience and facilitate better progress. Let's explore the world of music together and unlock your full potential. Get in touch today to schedule your free introductory lesson!

I have taught Spanish for the past 15 years from GCSE to A level - achieving great results. Also, I've been in charge of EAL provision at the school where I work.
I spent a number of years living and working in Madrid and still have close family connections to Spain. I am a fluent spanish speaker.
as far as possible, lessons are based around the students' interests - I love to teach creatively and always try to make lessons engaging and communicative, so students are really motivated and keen to learn.

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.

My name is B. Oluwafemi, a Fine Artist, and a major promoter of African arts. I hail from Ijumu local government area of Kogi state Nigeria with a Degree in Fine Arts (specialty in Art History). I am currently running my Masters in Fine Arts at the UniversityFor The Creative Arts Farnham UK. I also run the Artmazing studios where we offer a wide range of services from murals, graffiti, illustrations, digital arts, body arts and art consultancy with the sole goal of promoting African Arts.
I grew up in Zaria, Kaduna where I got my Degree from Ahmadu Bello University. I began my career as a Makeup Artist after completing my National youth service assignment in Daura, Katsina state and subsequently decided to go into full time art practice. I have always been an experimental person and in my artistry, I decided to infuse Traditional African Art into urban arts to create an Afro-centric modern synergy. My works can attest to this. From completion of my NYSC till date I have worked on several commissioned art projects in Abuja. Some of these projects can be seen in popular locations I Abuja like Jabi Boat Club, Discovery Museum, Trukadero, The Nigerian Air Force, Barlance Abuja, Whiskey Mistress, Nigerian Naval Recreation Center, The Rochas Foundation but the highlight will have to be a graffiti job commissioned for the Queen’s Birthday.
I am also a renowned body artist, stretching the boundaries with lines and African motifs using the human skin as a canvas, to create beautiful and stunning patterns. I have been hosted in several exhibitions and fairs where I worked on body art models and enthusiasts.
I work from my studio space/office where you will mostly always find me sketching out designs on my iPad or painting on a canvas. As far as inspiration, I pick inspiration from any and everything, ranging from works of artists I revere to a simple conversation.
Art is my one sole primary focus and that is why I always seek to give it my all. Art is a voice to me, my form of expression, it speaks when I have no words. It is the easiest way I pass messages on lots of issues. I plan to contribute to my field by using art to tell my African story and discovering new and improved ways to better my country, continent and the world at large.

I am a final year History student at Bristol. I have lots of experience working in primary school as well as someone to one tuition. I am confident, enthusiastic and really enjoy teaching looking to become a teacher after I graduate.
I usually teach for around an hour typically to primary school age but I am looking to teach some older years as well. I like to keep the lesson interactive not focusing on the same exercise for too long. I find primary school-age children struggle to focus on the same thing for a long time. However, what I like about tutoring one-to-one or in small groups is that it gives you a lot of space to be flexible depending on who I am teaching.

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.

Hi, I'm Sasha! I've been teaching Classics (Latin, Greek, Classical Civilisation, Ancient History) for 6 years. I've taught ages 11-18 at school, and have been tutoring since I left school in 2015.
I really care about helping others understand what can be a difficult and complex set of subjects, mostly because I know the joy and satisfaction of getting to grips with them. Whether you're starting out from scratch, getting back into it, or preparing for an exam, I can help you improve your understanding and accuracy of the languages and culture of the ancient world.
I am currently tutoring online outside of school time, but have more availability in school holidays. I am happy to recommend textbooks and other resources, but will not require you to buy anything extra. Please feel free to get in contact, as I am always looking to take on new clients.
