Welcome! My name is Hayley, and help is here! A little bit about myself, my expertise, and my teaching background:
Teaching Style
My teaching style is highly adaptable, I tailor my approach to fit the unique needs of each student.

Expertise in Knowledge
With a first class degree in law, I bring specialised knowledge in this field to the majority of my teaching sessions. I obtained a robust foundation in various areas of legal study, including:

This diverse legal education equips me with a broad and nuanced understanding of various legal disciplines, enhancing my ability to provide informed and comprehensive tutoring in law.
Other Expertise in Knowledge
Additionally, I am fluent in Spanish and possess strong expertise in humanities subjects, enabling me to offer a broad and insightful perspective across various subjects. Furthermore, I have great passion for English Language and English Literature, and specialised in tutoring these subjects in the past, as well as Business, Mathematics, Sociology and Politics.
Previous Teaching Experience
I have extensive experience tutoring through various agencies, as well as one-to-one tutoring at university level with younger students. Furthermore, I am SEN trained. I also have dyslexia and understand tailored methods of teaching for those who necessitate adaptation. This background has equipped me with a diverse set of skills and strategies to support your academic growth effectively.
Why I Love Teaching
I find immense joy in teaching because there’s nothing more rewarding than witnessing students achieve their full potential and surpass their own expectations. My passion for teaching stems from the satisfaction of guiding others through their learning journey and helping them unlock their capabilities.
An Eye Into My Lessons
In a typical lesson, I begin with a brief introduction and discussion to set the stage and align with the students' objectives. We then delve into the requested topic of study (I ask for this prior to the lesson, thus the lesson can be throughly planned), exploring it in depth and addressing key concepts. To cater to various learning styles, I incorporate interactive activities that engage students actively and reinforce their understanding. I plan to strategically understand a student’s learning style before teaching blocks commence, and for continuous feedback about what works best for a student. The lesson concludes with personalised feedback, assessing comprehension and identifying areas for further improvement, ensuring each student leaves with a clearer grasp of the material. I request at the end of every session a subject to plan for future lessons and progress.
I look forward to collaborating with you and helping you excel in your studies.
