As a full-time teacher, I appreciate the importance of an excellent education and that seeking tutoring assistance is often a difficult and daunting decision. Thereby, I thank you for viewing my profile and I hope I can be of some service.

I have 10 years experience teaching history and politics within the classroom, in addition to individual tutoring. My enthusiasm for my subjects is regularly commented upon and I have a proven track record of helping students achieve their full-potential. No matter whether your son/daughter has Oxbridge aspirations or needs help to reach a pass-mark, I will always bring a love of learning, along with a diligent and empathetic approach to teaching where each student feels fully supported and valued.

Tutoring Experience

• 10 years experience teaching both history and politics in a range of teaching environments including comprehensive, independent and international schools.

• Examiner for various exam boards including Edexcel, AQA and CIE.

• Roles have included Head of Department and Head of Year 7, alongside mental health first aid advocacy, PSHE curriculum development and sports coaching.

• Working alongside external instititions such as: Imperial War Museum London, Duxford, Holocaust Educational Trust, Natural History Museum and more.

Tutoring Approach

I pride myself on a caring, empathetic and enthusiastic approach to teaching both history and politics. I truly love these subjects and this has consistently been commented upon by students, parents and staff alike. My teaching philosophy is underpinned by the appreciation that no two students have the same learning experience and thereby, my tutoring sessions are tailor-made to each student.

I have 10 years of tutoring experience and am very proud of the results which have come from within the classroom and with individual clients. Each session will involve exam practice, knowledge retention, revision techniques and a diligent approach to making each student feel comfortable in their own abilities.

Work outside of the sessions will regularly be set as a benchmark of how the student is progressing. This work will be marked by me (at no extra cost) and feedback provided to students in preparation of the next session.

Ultimately, education is a process and I will adapt my lessons to suit the needs of each student.
