Tutoring Experience

Expert English Subject Specialist

9~1 English GCSE expert

Creative and skilled practitioner who has a proven track record of achieving 7~9 Grades and moving learners from 5s to 7 and above.

7 Years' developing intellectual curiosity, promoting a spirit of inquiry and engaging young minds to be empowered, love learning and fulfil their potential in inner city London schools as well as private tuition.

20 years teaching and tutoring experience.

As a private tutor, I have worked with the High Networth families preparing learners for the British Education System as well as supporting learners to improve GCSE grades and develop independent research, study and learning skills.

I mentor and coach teens to become self~led leaders, develop emotional intelligence and become empowered to follow their highest potential.

Developed an all through curriculum for an independent school, trained teachers to become expert practioners implementing the "Be The Expert pedagogies" which draw on cognitive science and many domains to create powerful and effective learning cultures to enable learners to retain knowledge and build a repertoire of strategies to use across different learning contexts.

Tutoring Approach

I promote higher order thinking skills, empowering learners to be experts by making the implicit learning skills explicit.

Students are trained to develop a range of strategies to move from dependence to independence in reading and writing as well as developing a love of the subject.

I encourage intellectual curiosity, personal power and leadership of learning.

Learners are given bespoke learning plans, teaching is adapted to skillfully meet learners where they are at and through my expertise we focus on diganosing gaps in core knowledge and skills to target and build strength in the EXACT foundational areas that will improve learning across all contexts. We solve the root, not the plaster the symptoms.
