Josh Bailey

My students enjoy deep and lively discussions with focus on subjects and techniques they most struggle with. I use interactive Concept Boards for easy and immediate feedback on work. I also provide transcripts and recordings through Zoom for each lesson, on request for future reference. Every lesson I have taught introduces concepts entirely new to my students, even with familiar subjects. I always aim to stretch their current knowledge and experience, while keeping closely to the course specification of whichever qualification they are pursuing.

Testimonials:
"[Name] said she really enjoys your class. Thank you!" - Hong Kong iGCSE English Language and Literature student parent
(After a 37/40 Philosophy essay score; the student's first at this level) "I told him I was going to send it to you as I was so pleased and wanted you to see how he did, as he has already benefited from his sessions with you and would probably not have shared the good news himself without prompting from either you or I!" - OCR A-level RS & Philosophy student parent
"Following your session with him... he said it was so helpful." - after work on The Tempest in preparation for English Literature GCSE, from the student's parent
