Shaun

I am a specialist in Business Education rated as outstanding by Ofsted and have 10 years experience as an Examiner with Edexcel and AQA. I previously worked at a leading independent North East Day & Boarding School and I am now the lead A level tutor for Business for an online international school. In this role, I write the course, assignments (in the style of examinations) and mark schemes used by every student worldwide, as well as leading a team of tutors.

I am familiar with AQA, Edexcel and Cambridge International exams

I teach students across the academic spectrum to attain significant added value at GCSE and Advanced level through a very deep and broad understanding of the subject and highly developed skills in assessment.

Tutoring Experience

I am a confident, passionate and motivated teacher of Business having had twenty five years’ experience in teaching Business, Economics and ICT up to A level, following courses leading to both terminal exams and courses that are predominantly coursework based such as GNVQ, BTEC & Double Award Applied Business. I have experience of teaching students from a range of backgrounds with varying levels of motivation and behaviour and from a diverse range of cultures and nationalities. Additionally, I have ten years’ experience in an educational management role, focused on the academic attainment and behaviour of a year group, together with ten years’ experience marking and assessing the marking of other teacher at GCSE and A level as a team leader and A Level Applied Business Studies moderator. My banking background provides me with the ability to enhance my teaching with real life business examples.

I am the lead tutor for A level Business with an international online school where I teach students iGCSE and A level Business and additionally support Independent schools worldwide who wish to offer Business but do not have a large enough cohort, so subscribe to the services offered by my international online school. I write all of the course material, assignments (in the style of real exams) and mark schemes for A Level Business and manage a team of other tutors. I have tutored face to face for over 10 years and since Covid have moved to online tutoring with students based in a range of countries worldwide.

Tutoring Approach

My banking background and my constant desire to expand my knowledge provides me with the ability to enhance my teaching with real life business examples - meaning that I am able to contextualise each lesson in terms of businesses and situations that you are currently familiar with.
