Kayleigh

I have got my degree from Swansea University and have attended various course on different approaches to teaching. I'm enthusiastic and believe that I am truly passionate about English and teaching. I enjoyed my University throughly as it gave me a true love of English and a further understanding of the range of texts. I'm now teaching at a school in Thurrock and am currently working on the AQA scheme of work, however, I am capable of teaching all exam papers.

Tutoring Experience

I have taught AQA GCSE and am fully aware of the present course and the course coming into place. I have taught across the ability range with children with SEN and gifted and talented. I am teaching at a school in Thurrock and teach AQA.

I am fully aware of the new specifications and what is required for it having been to a specialist course with one of the head examiners, this gave me a greater insight into the ways to teach this specification and make it accessible for children. I am aware of what is required for all controlled assessments and have marked across the range for them. I have a wide range of teaching experiences with all kinds of top sets and am able to completely differentiate so that your child will achieve what they are capable of.

Tutoring Approach

I believe that every child has the right to be heard and enjoy the teaching that they receieve. Students should be encouraged to be passionate and I encourage this through praise. I have tutored children preparing for their AS levels and their 11+ test and believe that it is important to listen to the student and see where they are struggling. This then means that I can specifically target these areas in the way that the child will find interesting in order for them to successfully move forward.

I believe that your child will quickly see improvements through my tutoring as they will feel encouraged and also learn within a fun and safe environment.
