With 10 years of teaching experience in a mainstream secondary school, I know that the needs of each student are individual. It is important to work closely together to find how tutoring will help each individual in the first session, it might be help with securing and recalling knowledge or essay, source or interpretation skills, and build a way forward from there. I aim to tailor each tutorial to suit the needs of the individual.
I have taught OCR and AQA GCSE exam specifications and AQA A-level, I have tutored the Edexcel A-level specification and really understand how the exams and mark schemes work. This is really beneficial to help students structure their answers to gain high marks.
My specialism and passion is for British history particularly the Tudor period and Modern Britain. But I also have experience teaching and tutoring a wide range of topics including the American West and other American topics, Weimar and Nazi Germany, the Cold War era and the Russian Revolution.
