Hello, my name is Peter. I am a Geography tutor based in London. The vast majority of my tutoring is online and I therefore have the experience and resources to ensure this works for you. Originally from Belfast and a graduate of Queen's University (Russell Group University) I moved to England once I finished my undergraduate degree. In doing so, I enrolled at the University of Reading to train in my Post Graduate Certificate in Education (PGCE). Once I completed my PGCE, I began teaching in a state school in Sandhurst three days per week. I have been tutoring for over ten years.
First and foremost, I am a results-driven Geography teacher that specialises in improving grades by teaching students the structure they need in longer written answers. I also focus on the best methods to revise and retain information.
In 2017 I became an examiner for AQA and Edexcel. This gives me a great insight into how exams are marked and allows me to guide my students on what the examiner wants to read. One of my major achievements was bringing a struggling GCSE student from a level 4 to 7 within 6 weeks. Another student, who was graded a D in their A-Level, achieved a B within 2 months for their resit.
My commitment to education and student progression has given me the opportunity to mentor PGCE students from a leading UK university.
Every student will have a different approach to learning. It is therefore important that in our first lesson we sit down and work this out. You might be more visual, aural, kinesthetic, etc. Getting this right will ensure your tutoring lesson will benefit you greatly.
