My students will benefit from a relaxed yet challenging atmosphere with high expectations from student and tutor. We will have an informal and relaxed "chat" initially, to identify key needs and wishes of the tuttee. This is vital in ascertaining goals as well as seeing how we get on professionally - in my experience I have found it vital that any young student needs to feel comfortable and at ease with their educator, to achieve maximum results.
After this, we can go through goals of the tuttee as well as what they enjoy, don't enjoy, different tasks, techniques and resources that they feel "work" for them. From this, I will tailor make a programme of sessions
Tailor-made support and sessions can include:
Subject tuition/support - KS3 and KS4 History.
Knowledge based support - knowing key facts is crucial to success in history - key evidence, dates people and techniques on recalling these can be helped with.
Exam technique and writing answers - entwining this into ever session is essential to build up confidence and practice of structure and skills recognition. Examining markschemes and model answers to recognise what a successful answer looks like.
Revision & learning support –study/process skills, revision programmes and techniques, knowledge quizzes and source analysis skills. Revision resources and replicating these skills into GCSE questions.
