Lisette

I'm an examiner in English Language and English Literature. I have examined for two major exam boards since 2017.
I also have experience of national and international curricula having taught at international and UK schools.

Tutoring Experience

I have experience of national and international curricula having taught at some leading international and UK schools. I have a track record for improving GCSE and A Level grades rapidly.

Tutoring Approach

My approach is holistic and my lessons methods lend themselves to Kolb's Experiential Learning approach.

Kolb’s 1984 theory suggests that there are four main stages in the learning cycle:

Concrete experience. This is when the learner has a new experience, such as riding a bike for the first time.
Reflective observation. After the concrete experience, the learner must reflect on their actions and watch others perform that action.
Abstract conceptualisation. The next step involves the learner making sense of their reflections and making a plan for going forward. They might come up with next steps and seek insight from experts.
Active experimentation. During the final stage, the learner will consider their reflections and previous lessons and then retry the original experience to see if any progress has been made. This will lead to a new concrete experience, and so the cycle restarts.
