DRAMATIC IMPROVEMENTS QUICKLY.
My unique approach to English produces breakthroughs after 2-3 lessons, with significant rises in my students' levels of confidence and competence.
They suddenly " get English " when before it was a maze of confusion.
I do this with clear , easy explanations of exactly how certain techniques work, what to write about them( key words and phrases) and how to use them in ways guaranteed to impress examiners.
If this sounds like what you're looking for then book me in for in-person or online lessons and feel free to ask any questions, on this forum.
30 years experience teaching English and Maths both at primary and secondary level, overlapping with 8 years working as a private tutor of students of all ages.
My main focus, in English lessons is producing highly effective game-changing input tailored to your child's specific needs.
This includes specific input, where appropriate, on the demands of individual GCSE questions and how to answer them.
Key Areas are as follows:
1) Writers' techniques made easy, so your child can easily identify them and explain their effectiveness.
2) Writers' techniques applied, so their own writing improves significantly.
3) Vocabulary development- to powerfully impact reader/examiner and to empower your child in life , as well as improved exam results.
4) The use of mnemonics/memory methods applied particularly to English Literature texts
.
Establishing good relationships and developing your child's confidence is central to my approach
