    English Curriculum - year 1 through to year 11 (GCSE)

    As a tutor, I understand the importance of English in the overall development of your child. English is not just a subject but a skill that is required in almost every aspect of life. Hence, it is crucial to have a good grasp of the language, and I am here to make sure that happens.

    For primary school pupils, we will start with the basics of grammar and comprehension. We will focus on building a strong foundation by working on topics such as sentence structure, parts of speech and basic reading skills, including phonics and spelling. Through interactive and enjoyable activities, we will ensure that your child understands the concepts thoroughly.

    As your child progresses to secondary school, the English curriculum becomes more challenging. However, I am confident that we will tackle the literature and language elements with ease. At this stage, we will introduce literature, including Shakespeare's plays and poetry, into our lessons. We will not only analyse the texts but also make connections to the real world, thereby developing critical thinking skills.

    In conclusion, my primary goal is to help your child become proficient in the English language. Together, we will build a strong foundation for their language skills and expand their horizons through literature. I am excited to embark on this journey with your child and look forward to helping them achieve academic excellence.

    About Me

    For 27 years, I have been a tutor with my own successful business, and despite the length of time I've spent teaching, my passion for the profession has never dwindled. Each and every day, I approach each student with renewed enthusiasm and eagerness to help them reach their potential.

    I strongly believe that no child is a lost cause, and with the proper guidance and support, they can all achieve greatness. In my years of tutoring, I've worked with a wide range of students, including those with high functioning autism and dyslexia. My experience has taught me that everyone learns differently, and it's important to cater to each student's individual needs and strengths.

    Teaching isn't just a job for me – it's my calling. From a young age, I knew I was born to teach, and I've dedicated my life to it. As an entrepreneur, I'm constantly seeking new ways to present material and engage my students. My love for teaching and my business only continues to grow with each passing day.

    When I'm not busy coming up with innovative lesson plans, you'll find me pursuing my hobbies. I love to craft and create knitted and crocheted children's clothes and accessories in my free time, and sell on at craft fairs. Additionally, I enjoy spending time with my two rough collie dogs, whom I've trained to be well-behaved and obedient. Just like my students, they are a testament to the power of proper guidance and dedication.

    In summary, my years of experience, dedication and love for teaching make me an excellent choice for any student seeking academic assistance. With the right guidance and approach, every child can succeed and thrive.

    Education

    As a lifelong learner, I have always valued education and continuously pursued opportunities to enhance my knowledge and skills. My educational journey began with my high school years where I completed O levels and A levels, laying a strong foundation for my academic pursuits. From there, I enrolled in an Open University degree programme and pursued numerous teaching and other courses that aligned with my interests.

    During my time at university, I also worked as a Teaching Assistant at the local school for four years, which allowed me to put my learning into practice. This experience was incredibly rewarding as I was able to work closely with students and witness firsthand their progress and growth. Additionally, I had the opportunity to learn from seasoned educators and collaborate with them on lesson plans and classroom management.

    As I continued to expand my educational horizons, I also pursued a Level 3 diploma in reflexology, which added to my growing knowledge of the human body and its workings. Furthermore, I achieved the status of Reiki Master, a discipline that aligns with my belief in the interconnectedness of mind, body and spirit.

    My journey as a lifelong learner has not only broadened my horizons but also provided me with the skills and knowledge to make a positive impact in my community. I am grateful for all the opportunities that I have had and remain eager to continue my educational journey in the future.

    Experience / Qualifications

    I am a teacher with 27 years of experience under my belt. Through the years, I have gained a multitude of qualifications that have enriched my expertise in the field.

    My educational background includes High School O Levels and A Levels, an Open University degree, and numerous teaching and other courses. These courses cover a diverse range of subjects such as science, biology, earth science, geography, human biology and the senses and psychology. Additionally, I have taken courses on teaching algebra and maths, equipping me with the skills necessary to teach these challenging subjects to students.

    I am also proud to hold a teaching certificate, which further validates my passion for teaching. To add to this, I have earned Level 3 diplomas in holistic therapies, reflecting my dedication to the overall wellness of my students. As a Reiki Master, I incorporate alternative healing methods into my teaching practice, making sure that my students' well-being is given the utmost priority.

    My diverse set of qualifications has made me a versatile educator capable of tackling various challenges and teaching a diverse range of students. With 27 years of teaching experience, I have developed a unique teaching style that combines knowledge, creativity and compassion, resulting in a conducive and enriching learning environment for all my students.
    Are you struggling with geography in school? Fear not, as there is a solution - an online geography tutor! My passion for geography and earth science stems from my open university qualifications in earth science and oceanography. These qualifications have allowed me to delve deeper into the world of geography and understand it on a fundamental level. Over the past 27 years, I have been teaching geography to students ranging from year 7 to year 11, allowing me to develop various teaching styles to accommodate every student's needs. The importance of geography cannot be understated, as it teaches us about the world around us, its inhabitants, and the way we interact with it. As our world changes, we must understand how geography influences and impacts us. The skills developed in geography, such as map reading and critical thinking, are transferable across multiple fields, making geography a highly desirable subject for students to learn. By working with an online geography tutor, students can have access to a more personalised learning experience, allowing them to progress at their own pace. As a tutor, I focus on providing my students with an interactive and engaging environment that inspires curiosity and encourages learning.

    Mathematics is truly a fascinating subject that opens the door to an array of exciting possibilities. With me, you will have the opportunity to explore every topic in the school curriculum depending on your year and level. Whether you are a newcomer to mathematics or have been studying it for years, there are many different topics to discover. For instance, we can start with arithmetic, which is a fundamental aspect of mathematics and is crucial in our day-to-day lives. Here, we can learn how to add, subtract, multiply and divide numbers and work with fractions and decimals. Moving on from arithmetic, we can delve deeper into algebra, which involves solving equations and working with variables and constants. It is a field that underlies many other areas of mathematics, and it helps us to understand relationships between numbers and how they work together. Beyond algebra, we can also explore other exciting topics such as geometry, statistics, trigonometry and more. With me, you will have the opportunity to develop a strong understanding of mathematics and gain the skills needed to excel in this subject. Overall, I believe that mathematics is a subject that is both challenging and rewarding. By exploring all of the different topics within the school curriculum, we can discover the many different ways in which mathematics impacts our world and prepares us for success in life. So let's get started on this incredible journey of learning!
