Hello, and welcome to the key to your success! All lessons are conducted through Zoom or Skype so that you can learn from the comfort of your own home! The benefit of this is also that I can record our lesson, and you will have an alternative revision source. I will use online tools to deliver the same high-quality tutoring that you would receive in person. I am very lucky to be able to tutor both school-attending and home-educated students. Some students I spend a couple of hours with, some a few months, and others I currently have the pleasure of being with them for a couple of years in preparation for their SATs, GCSEs or A-levels. Whatever your needs, I can promise you will find both a tutor and a friend in me, and I will adapt to your needs. I am highly academic and love to enthusiastically share my knowledge with others. Tutoring is extremely rewarding for me and I will take the time to make sure that you understand everything fully and (hopefully) develop a love for the subject! I see myself as being very calm and patient and good at explaining myself in clear spoken English. I always encourage questions and plan all of my lessons in advance to make the best use of the session. Each lesson is specifically created and tailored to my student's needs, and I take pride in being 110% committed to you and to your child. I will regularly send homework in order to test and mark your child’s ability/progress and give them feedback. I do this to enhance their written ability in order to gain full marks in the exam (though I never promise certain grades). I know exactly what the exam boards are looking for, since I am also a fully qualified exam invigilator, and I have access to a range of past papers from different exam boards. I am also highly experienced when it comes to students that perhaps don’t enjoy English as a subject, are quiet in themselves, and struggle to concentrate. I have a deep understanding of the English language, including grammar, vocabulary, and usage and I am familiar with different teaching methods which means that I am able to adapt my teaching style to meet the needs of my students. I consider myself to be very patient, understanding, and motivated to help every student succeed. I am an excellent communicator and am able to explain complex concepts in a clear and concise way as well as being creative and innovative in terms of coming up with new and engaging ways to teach the English language. In addition to my teaching skills, I am also a great listener and am able to understand my students' needs. I am supportive and encouraging in every lesson, and I focus on creating a positive learning environment where my students feel comfortable asking questions and taking risks. Find out more about tutoring below! Please contact me as soon as possible to organise a suitable timeslot (as I am proud to say that I am a popular tutor), and I will endeavour to accommodate you.
