Tutoring Approach

I believe that if you are going to invest in a tutor that the lessons should be tailored to your needs, enjoyable and building your self-confidence in the subject. Before we begin our lessons, I discuss what you hope to achieve by working with a tutor and what our goals are. We also do regular check-ins so that we can give each other feedback on what we think is going well and where we would like to make changes. When working with school children, I also give feedback to the parent after every lesson so that they are aware of the progress that is being made.
