Across all of the different subjects I teach, I always notice the same thing: the main difficulty that learners encounter is getting overwhelmed by what they’re trying to learn. It could be that there seems to be simply too much material to cover; it could be that the concepts seem too difficult; it could be […]

I believe in creating a personalised, engaging and supportive tutoring experience for tutees. It’s no secret that different students learn different ways and test best using different strategies. A huge part of understanding how a student thinks is to listen carefully. However, part of tutoring is showing students things about themselves that they might not […]

Tutoring is about finding what works to support student achievement on an individual level. By getting to know my students in a one-on-one setting and employing a variety of pedagogical approaches to support their learning, we can develop specific skills and techniques to achieve short term goals as well as make school more enjoyable in […]

Within the first few sessions with my pupil, I aim to quickly assess skill and confidence levels and individual learning styles and to plan future lessons accordingly. Above all, I will […]

My approach to tuition depends on your needs. I understand that some of you will be looking for tutoring to achieve a specific grade, and some of you will be looking for tutoring to support your overall understanding about a subject. Starting from our first session and throughout our sessions together, I will make sure […]
