Lessons will start with a discussion of what we already know, and what we've always wanted to know. We'll then move on to make a To Do List for the lesson.
The bulk of the lesson will be made up of exploring a topic and its core concepts, ticking off the items on the to do list as we go along. I use a mix of practice questions, "explain back to me" triggers, and media/images to ensure understanding, engagement,, and enjoyment!

Whilst the aim is, of course, to achieve the highest grades possible in the exams, a major aim for me is that my students become empowered and independent learners, who understand how they can learn best. I try to emphasise this is my lessons by highlighting how we learnt something, or discussing what has/hasn't worked with this topic.

I have worked in several posts over a period of 2 years, mainly working with disadvantaged children in KS3 maths, and GCSE sciences, along with a lot of peer tutoring at GCSE and A-Level. I am also a Medical Student, and teaching is something embedded into our curriculum, as we get to do a lot of it.
