I currently teach as an English teacher and Lead Practitioner in a secondary school in Watford.
I really enjoy teaching, encouraging students to develop a love of literature and helping students to realise their potential. I also enjoy supporting other teachers to reach their full potential; due to this, I now have more limited availability for tutoring.
Having recently reactivated my account and due to current demand, my only remaining regular slots for the new academic year will be online at 6.15pm on Tuesdays and Wednesdays, priced at £60 per hour. Weekend lessons are available upon request and will be charged similarly.
I have been teaching for nearly 10 years, teaching students from Year 7 up to Year 13.
I recently completed my National Professional Qualification for Leading Teaching (NPQLT) to support effective teaching across school and am a professionally aware and informed leader who makes evidence-based decisions within my teaching practice and within my leadership.
Prior to teaching, I was responsible for training, coaching and developing adult literacy in a contact centre.
My approach is primarily one of nurture and support, adapted to my students to help them develop confidence and increase academic achievement. I create and share resources for each session, tailoring my delivery to my student and assessing students’ written work.
My approach is flexible; dealing with students who are struggling with English or stretching students who are gifted and talented.
I tutor on a 1:1 basis and prefer to deliver hour long sessions. I am happy to deliver longer sessions over the school holidays, if required.
Please be aware that due to current demand, my only remaining regular slots for the new academic year will be online at 6.15pm on Tuesdays and Wednesdays, priced at £60 per hour. Weekend lessons are available upon request and will be charged similarly.
