Vivienne

Hi. My name is Vivienne. I have many years of teaching experience - both online and face-to-face - to students of all ages and nationalities. My style is calm and approachable and my aim is for lessons to be as productive as possible. I am also happy to provide resources for self-study between sessions. I am also a qualified coach, which means that I am used to helping young people who feel anxious, overwhelmed or lacking in confidence. My grown-up son told me the other day that he still remembers how helpful my revision advice and home studying plan was to him when he went through his GCSEs, so that is another area I could help with. Before we start work together, I will ask you (or you and your child) where you most need help, so that I can tailor the sessions to give maximum value.

Tutoring Experience

I am a qualified TESOL/TEFL teacher with in-person and online experience with students of multiple nationalities, aged 6 to adult. I am also a qualified and experienced English Secondary School Teacher with very recent online and classroom experience (AQA and OCR).

Tutoring Approach

My style is friendly and encouraging, with lots of practical tips to offer. Do you need help with the basics of spelling, punctuation and grammar? Maybe you agonise over analysing quotations or lack confidence in creative writing? Are you panicking about having to retake your exam? Perhaps you could benefit from revision and exam tips and techniques? Contact me to see how I can support your success.
