My Experience
English Curriculum
Over the past ten years, I have acted as an English teacher in schools, study centres and with private clients. I have acted as Head of English in a private English school in Thailand which followed a British curriculum. I oversaw all English tuition for the secondary school, acted as invigilator during GCSE examinations and ran the after school poetry club.
I have focused a lot of my private tuition on entrance exams and Common Entrance and have helped students prepare for exams who have been awarded places at the following schools:
Bradfield (13+)
Whitgift (11+)
Whitgift 6th form (16+)
Hampton Boys (13+)
Tiffin School for Girls (11+)
Guildford High for Girls )11+)
King`s School and College, Wimbledon (7+, 11+)
Caterham (11+)
Charterhouse (13+)
My other focus is on GCSE English Literature and Language where I continue to tutor students both face to face and online. I am very familiar with the AQA and Edexcel examination syllabus.
English As A Second Language
I am a qualified English Language tutor. Since 2009 I have taught hundreds of students ranging from primary up to adults and influential businessmen. I have taught in a range of study centres and 1-1 environments and have developed and nurtured by tutoring skills to accommodate all ages and levels.
I am extremely familiar with the ESL examination, particularly IELTS where I have even created my own pack of resources.
I have acted as a private English tutor for a number of influential and high profile clients which has involved travelling the world, preparing clients for important meetings and being at their service at any given moment.
PSHE
As an actor, I have toured the UK delivering PSHE lessons through TIE (Theatre in Education). I have delivered workshops to entire year groups from Year 5 up to Year 13 covering topics like bullying, change, puberty, sex and relationships, addiction, consent and mental health. Delivering these workshops over a period of 3 years has given me a huge insight into the issues facing young people today and has consequently allowed me to become an extremely adaptable and relatable tutor for teenagers.
Creative Writing and Acting
As a published writer and working actor, I have delivered poetry and creative writing workshops to year groups, classes and 1-1.
