Qualified and experienced Psychology graduate and teacher currently working as the Head of Psychology at a large comprehensive school. I have been leading the department for 5 years and every year, A level results have improved significantly. I have experience in successfully improving grades for borderline students (D/C and B/A). I have also helped a number of students achieve the A* grades they were striving towards (within my own classes and through private tutoring). My aim as a teacher and tutor is to increase students' confidence in the subject and help them to develop the key skills they need to be successful in their final exams. In addition to the above, I also hope to inspire and motivate my students through my passion for Psychology and love for teaching and learning.
I have been a full-time tutor now since 2011. Currently specialising in SEN in an online capacity, I have designed modules and curricula for Maths, Music, English & Science to both support and stretch my pupils’ capabilities within the wider world through the engagement of soft skills. Despite studying Professional Musicianship at university, my true calling led me to gain my Qualified Teaching Status in Secondary Mathematics and focus on an individual’s understanding of academia. Throughout university I was tutoring face-to-face and even teaching fellow peers the likes of GCSE retakes (Maths), essay/research/note/academic skills, and Music theory. Since gaining pedagogic training, I have expanded my repertoire, including experiences with SEN, such as ASD, ADD, ADHD, ODD, OCD, dyslexia, dyscalculia and many more spanning across Primary, Tertiary (FE) and Higher Education. Including tutoring experience with home-schooling, EAL, LAC and adult learners studying for QTS, curriculum reform and creating new syllabu
Secondary English Teacher in my fourth year of teaching, with most of my experience in ages 11-16 and currently at Hillview School, Tonbridge. I offer 11+ and 13+ preparation and tuition for KS3 and GCSEs. My dyspraxia has significantly helped with building strategies for SEN students. I previously mentored through a scheme, developing study skills such as organisation, motivation and self-esteem. I'm a film fanatic (1000+ films in my collection) and am presently converting my garage into a cinema. I have been very successful in igniting a love of storytelling for my students and hope to set up a creative writing magazine for them, as I did when I was a student myself at KCS Wimbledon. My epiphany to become a teacher came after coaching American football in Wembley for two years. I have lived in London for most of my life, but also lived in Louisiana for a year whilst completing my American Literature with Creative Writing degree at UEA and now call Tunbridge Wells home, where I live with my pregnant wife.
