I have over 10 years of tutoring experience and have tutored students in both English Language and Literature. I have worked in education for many years and have an in-depth knowledge of the GCSE requirements for most exam boards (AQA, Pearson Edexcel, OCR, WJEC and the iGcse)
I have a passion for English and work hard for my students to achieve the best possible results.
I enjoy learning and communicating in foreign languages as well as understanding other cultures. I have lived and taught in a variety of countries making me adaptable, resilient, creative and resourceful. This enables me to pass on important life skills to my students in addition to coaching them through the demands of a GCSE in their chosen subject.
I am a fully-qualified teacher who has spent the last 20 years in education; including time as a full-time teacher, head of department, tutor and moderator. I taught English as a foreign language for 3 years in Quebec, Spain and the Czech Republic. I have tutored students in French, Spanish, English and KS2 literacy for the last 10-15 years. I earned my Secondary PGCE in 2009 and taught in three outstanding schools (Ofsted rated).
I offer tuition to GCSE in English Language and English Literature. I tutor online through Skype, Zoom or Google Meets. My first aim is to ensure my students enjoy their learning as this is one of the most important factors in achieving academic success alongside effort. My students describe me as a diligent, creative, motivational and enthusiastic tutor.
