About Me

Personal Tutor

I am a fully qualified educator with seven years of experience in education as both a classroom teacher and private tutor in primary, secondary and A-Level key stages. I have extensive experience with SEND and LAC students including agency referrals, quickly building relationships and establishing learning patterns.

I offer tuition in the following subjects:

  • Maths up to GCSE
  • Physics up to A-Level
  • Science up to GCSE
  • Eleven-Plus 11+ and SATS tuition
  • Professional and vocational competence exams including Foundational Skills in Numeracy and Literacy
  • Musical instrument tuition for guitar and bass guitar

Every learner is different so I tailor my sessions to the individual, responding to their needs and requirements so they get the most out of our time and have the best chance of success. I work diligently to engage their thinking and adaptively approach areas they find challenging, as well as offering exam advice and strategies with comprehension, analysis and problem solving.

Students learn best when they feel they are in a safe, encouraging and supportive environment, dealing with setbacks resiliently and recognising the rewards for their efforts. This will build their confidence, exam preparation and self-esteem.
