Tutoring Approach

I am an enthusiastic and passionate teacher. There has never be a more exciting time to study Politics!

Sessions are tailored to the individual needs of the student and we will discuss such needs prior to our first session in a free phone call.

Sessions will tend to focus on developing and embedding knowledge, spending time discussing contemporary examples to allow students to keep on top of the ever changing politics landscape.

As an examiner and current teacher, my sessions can focus on improving exam technique, using past papers, in order to achieve the higher levels of the mark schemes.

As the sole teacher of Politics I have created a large bank of resources, including detailed notes and top-tips covering all of the A-level Edexcel Global Politics course. This also includes the ideologies of Liberalism, Conservatism, Socialism and Feminism. Such resources will be shared with tutees.

I have previously taught GCSE Economics and have a bank of resources to aid knowledge and develop exam technique.
