Tutoring Approach

Over the years, I have experienced a wide variety of educational environments; I was a student at a large mixed comprehensive school in South Yorkshire, I completed my teacher training in two inner-city London schools (one mixed, one single sex), I taught professionally in an Outstanding girls' grammar school, and now work in one of the country's top Independent schools.

This array of experiences means that I can accommodate my individual tutees' needs with confidence and sensitivity. I always encourage students to foster a growth mindset, thereby enabling them to aim high without fear of making mistakes.

In summary, I praise but do not patronize, my criticism is always constructive, and I strive to ensure that tutees leave every lesson with a clear plan of what they need to do next in order to improve their academic work.
