Emily

I am a full-time educator with over ten years of experience. I am an English Literature graduate (BA) of the University of Aberystwyth where I especially enjoyed papers in Anglo-Saxon, Medieval, female empowerment and Viking Sagas. Following on from University I gained my PGCE with the University of Chester via the School Direct programme, beating 200 other applicants for one of the 20 places available. I was exposed to the latest in education theory and pedagogical techniques during the revamp of the National Curriculum. I then completed the prestigious MRes with Swansea University in the highly acclaimed Medieval Literature department.

Over the years I have worked relentlessly and have created the perfect programme for scoring top marks in GCSE and A-Level History! My programme taps into neurological stimuli to help revise and apply a practical understanding of content and essay writing. Additionally, I have also put together a revision programme to help ensure revision actually pays off and gets you the highest marks! Suitable for all exam boards and all learning requirements.

Tutoring Experience

I have significant experience with LAC and PLAC children, those with learning difficulties and mental health issues. This has enabled me to tailor teaching and learning to suit the individual and quickly spot the root cause of their issue. I am a member of The Tutoring Association which strives to make tutoring a monitored and professional industry. This means I continually embark on CPD in terms of teaching methodology as well as marking courses with a variety of exam boards and constantly reflect on my own teaching to improve.

Tutoring Approach

After 12 years of exclusively tutoring I have put together specific, cost-effective tutoring packages, available to all!

Bronze Package - This package includes detailed feedback on one essay or practice paper per month. Feedback will consist of current grade and potential grade. Structured and detailed feedback will be provided in order to meet this possible grade. Bronze students will also have access to the weekly 30-minute Group Q&A session where they can ask questions about their subject, topic or essay feedback.

Silver Package - This package includes access to one weekly group tuition live lesson. At the beginning of each term, I will provide a timetable of the lessons taking place that term, and silver students can choose which lesson they would like to attend. Extra sessions can be added to the package upon request. Silver students will also have access to the weekly 30-minute Group Q&A session where they can ask questions about their subject, topic or essay structure.

Gold Package - This package is both bronze and silver packages together. Essay feedback for one essay a month, one tutoring session a week, and access to the weekly live Q&A session.
