Shelby W
Patient English tutor
I am a patient, friendly and kind primary school teacher with nearly 10 years experience! I love teaching my favourite subject is maths though. As a tutor I will focus on improving your child’s maths skills. My favourite thing is seeing pupils that I work with make excellent progress and achieve and I have felt so rewarded by the progress my pupils have made. I have taught children aged 5-9 specifically but I am trained to teach children aged 5-11. I am looking to earn a little extra money alongside my teaching job. However I am really excited to see the progress that I can help more children t...

Susan S
Highly experienced English tutor
I have over 30 years' classroom teaching experience and have taught students from 4 to 16 years of age, but mainly in Key Stage 2. As a Y6 teacher, my students' end of year results regularly showed accelerated progress in English, Maths and SPAG. Five years ago, I moved to online teaching, focusing on preparing students for SATs and Common Entrance exams (11+ and 13+) and teaching groups of students on the National Tutoring Programme. I now divide my time between 121 English tutoring in a secondary school and online KS2/3 English and KS2 maths tuition.My English classes are geared towards encouraging...

Paul M
Excellent English tutor
Maths is pure hell for some. It was for me as a young boy and I thought that because I didn't get the answers right it meant that I was no good.I didn't understand numbers, the vocabulary used for the abstract nature of maths and it left me feeling bereft of confidence. I am glad nowadays maths is taught in a more simpler fashion and I am proof that if maths is accessible in the right way, is fun and more importantly the fear factor is removed then anyone can prosper. That is how I like to approach maths and I feel that it is a fantastic way to enjoy, and dare I say it... love the subject.I am...

Charlotte R
Giving English tuition that je ne sais quoi
For over 8 years, I have worked with, and currently work with students of a wide range of ages, levels, and abilities, to achieve their goals. I have excellent experience with AQA, Edexcel, OCR/CIE & Eduqas exam boards. From my own experience I think it is important to follow the tutee's needs, and work on those first. I always try to follow the student's lead and tailor sessions as much as possible. For all students I will always try to provide a balanced well-rounded session with a main theme or objective for the session.However, I do like to let the lesson flow and follow your learning speed...
