Qualified English Teacher with 8 years experience teaching in London Secondary Schools. I have consistently been judged an 'outstanding' teacher by Senior Leaders at my school as well as external organisations. Currently available to tutor during the day as well as evenings and Saturday. I have extensive experience of teaching GCSE and A Level with a track record of strong results, particularly for high achieving and students with Special Educational Needs. I have in depth knowledge of: AQA and Edexcel for GCSE Language and Literature; OCR for A Level Literature. In last school role at Finchley Catholic High School (ended July 2020) was responsible for Key Stage 3 English curriculum and intervention, so am experienced in creating sequences of lessons which cater for individual students, especially those who have specific learning needs. Since March 2020 I have done an increasing amount of my teaching via Zoom, but look forward to more face to face tutoring when lockdown ends.
Over 11 years of teaching experience in a mainstream Inner London school. I teach KS3, KS4 and KS5 English Literature and English Language. I only work with AQA for KS4. I am Head of Literacy at my current school and therefore am able to really push students when it comes to reading widely whilst also developing their vocabulary as well as obviously ensuring they are meeting their potential within the subject. For KS3 I mainly focus on analytical writing, creative writing, oracular and reading strategies. For KS4 I would be looking to work with students in whichever unit they are least confident in. All my tuition sessions initially begin with a baseline test so I can have clear evidence of a child’s ability. I am firm, reliable and committed in ensuring I get the best out of every child I work with through providing engaging and interesting lessons and resources.
