I am a friendly and enthusiastic children offering lessons to students from primary school to A level. I have worked with children and young adults for over 6 years. I have experience privately tutoring students from primary school to university degree level (both face-to-face and online). I quickly build rapport with my students and focus on their needs, ensuring that they achieve to the best of their potential. Additionally, I am able to proofread and edit essays and homework. My goal is to give students constructive feedback in a prompt and timely manner.

Furthermore, I have experience working with pupils with EAL (English as an Additional Language), Dyslexia, Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). Therefore, I offer person-centered tutoring to meet the specific needs of every student.

I take a student-focused approach and work with the student to discover their strengths and weaknesses. I listen carefully to what the student is currently working on and what they would like to focus on during the session. Then I create a plan of what each session should cover. I will ensure that sessions are pitched perfectly so my students can make progress straight away.

I have the ability to see the unique strengths in each of my students and I aim to build their confidence by using all learning modalities to develop these strengths. I am a patient tutor and I am dedicated to helping students to tackle challenges while also encouraging independent thought.

Teaching is a two-way process so expect questions - lots of them! If any stumbling blocks have been encountered, I will use a range of questioning techniques to get to the bottom of the problem. Once identified we can build the bridge and lay firm foundations on which to build.

My goals as a tutor is to increase students' grades, inspire them to be enthusiastic about learning and build their confidence. I use different learning techniques during sessions so that students can reach their full potential. I create a friendly atmosphere when I am tutoring by being non-judgmental and providing students with positive reinforcement.

At the end of each lesson, I set homework so that students can consolidate the material learnt and this is carefully tailored to the needs of each individual. I aim to give useful and constructive feedback that will benefit their grades.
