I believe building confidence within students is the key to getting their full potential and I have the patience and teaching experience to be able to do this.

Tutoring Experience

20+ years of teaching experience including Assistant Achievemebt Durector, Lead Teacher, Subject Leader, Year Achievement Leader, Progress Leader, Director of Learning.
I have taught in a variety of schools across West Yorkshire, teaching yr7 through to year 11 across all abilities.
I have run intervention classes within the school environment, pushing students to reach their full potential.

Tutoring Approach

I have a flexible approach to tutoring to fit around the needs of the individual and their family. This could include exam practice, how to interpret questions, development of knowledge. I tailor my tutition based on the needs of the tutee. I also have some degree of flexibility with times of sessions. During the past year I have focused on developing confidence within mathematics for the students I have worked with. Confidence building is key in mathematics and believing you can do something is sometimes half the battle.
