High-quality Conisbrough English Tutors

I am a qualified teacher with three years of experience teaching in outstanding schools in London. I have experience teaching Geography, History, English, Maths and Health and Social Care. I have worked as an examiner for AQA, Edexcel and Cambridge IGCSE exam boards. My students continuously achieve excellent grades by ensuring that I continuously support and challenge them. I have extensive experience in tutoring students with special educational needs and providing easily accessible learning resources. I thoroughly enjoy inspiring my students in their learning and helping them to develop a healthy curiosity and love for education. About me: I am a keen traveller and have travelled extensively across South and Central America, South East Asia and Europe. I grew up in South Africa but moved to the UK during my teens. I enjoy playing sports - I am a keen netballer, cyclist and cricketer!

I am an experienced primary school teacher of 6 years based in Nottingham. I have taught classes of every KS2 year group including high numbers of SEN and higher ability pupils. I am practised at coaching Year 6 pupils through their SATs exams and have a thorough and deep knowledge of the entire primary curriculum. I have also been extremely successful at pushing higher ability pupils and deepening their mastery of the curriculum. My teaching is creative, engaging and indivisualised to the needs of each and every pupil. I bring a love and passion to the role that I believe has lit and nurtured a spark within my pupils. While online tutoring is a fairly new venture for me, my classroom experience has given me a wide perspective of the challenges that KS2 pupils face. However, I have also identified the areas in which additional tutoring outside of school can be beneficial and give pupils an additional sense of responsibility and curiosity for learning.

I have over 15 years experience as an English teacher and I have taught in mainstream classes in Secondary Schools and in Sixth Form Colleges. I have worked with a variety of students, from EAL Students on a 1 : 1 basis within a school to privately, from a home setting, mainly teaching GCSE. English Literature and Language. I tutor students in preparation for A-Levels and GCSEs, from a variety of schools in Sheffield including Westbourne School, Birkdale School, Sheffield Girls High School. I enjoy this 1 : 1 work, as I am able to specifically adapt work for individual students, giving them a personal tutoring service that brings some rewarding results. I am currently tutoring students at Year 9, 10 and 11.

As an experienced class teacher and Deputy Head across the Primary Key Stages, I firmly believe that good quality teaching and assessment leads to progress for all children. I am a strong teacher with excellent behaviour management skills, and most of my teaching career has been working in a school with high deprivation factors, high levels of Pupil Premium and high numbers of children with EAL. I have led and managed several curriculum areas including all areas of Literacy, Computing and Assessment. I am a child protection officer and am team teach trained. I am highly organised and flexible, able to plan effective sequences of lessons, yet also be creative and “think on the spot” when needed. I am experienced in delivering all areas of the Primary Curriculum, English and Maths Functional Skills, and a range of other education related skills.
