My approach is extremely flexible as I tend to adapt my teaching method based on the tutee's particular needs.

In the years that I have been tutoring I am grateful that I have never had an unsatisfied student as I pride myself on emphasis being placed on carefully listening to the specific needs of the student and focusing on developing individual bespoke lessons rather than one-size-fits-all approach.

It's important to me to understand the needs of each student in order for me to adapt an approach that will maximise his/her potential.

It is important to me that I develop a good relationship with each pupil so that they feel comfortable while working with me as well as to gauge what style of teaching is best suited to him/her. Learning is not a one style fits all.

Lessons will include a main teaching point, interactive games to consolidate concepts and work that will support the ability to put understanding into practice. Lessons are led by the pupil and I am there to facilitate that learning to support or challenge as appropriate.

Upon joining me for any lesson cancellation 24 hours notice is required otherwise full lesson fee is applicable as I am unable to offer that hour to another student.
