Tutoring Experience

I have 2+ one-to-one tutoring experience and all of my students have improved at least two grades up from what they were working on before reaching out for tutoring.

Work experience in a primary school where I assisted class teachers in reception class, taking part in delivering inspiring lessons to younger children and helping them through their activities. This experience further developed my communication skills with younger children and improved my confidence.

Supporting younger peers in high school has also given me a great experience. I helped children with disabilities read, write and express themselves. This has ultimately given them confidence and allowed me to learn how to teach in a variety of different ways.

I also teach piano to young beginners 1 on 1. I make the lessons very interactive and enjoyable, as I understand the experience of learning a new skill.

Tutoring Approach

I provide a 1-to-1 teaching approach catered to the individuals needs. I listen and make note of the skills, topics and areas the student is least confident in and work together to build confidence and hone in on those skills in order to excel. I ensure my students are not only supported throughout my teaching period, but for the rest of their academic career as I will teach them learning and revision techniques which will be integral to their learning for the rest of their future.

Each lesson I will look through any homework, notes and questions in which they may have from school and ensure they understand what is being taught. I will them take an interactive approach to teach them on something they require to improve. This can be interactive quizzes, practice questions we work through together or timed past paper questions.
