Tutoring Approach

My teaching philosophy centers on the belief that every student is unique and deserves a tailored educational experience. I adapt my teaching methods to accommodate various learning styles, ensuring that each student engages with the material in a way that resonates with them. By employing a range of strategies—including scaffolding, interactive discussions, and hands-on activities—I create a supportive learning environment that fosters confidence and understanding.

I have a strong expertise in working with neurodiverse students, particularly those with ADHD. I understand the challenges they may face and implement specific techniques to enhance focus and retention. For example, I often use visual aids and mind maps to break down complex concepts, making them more digestible.

My experience also includes developing personalized study plans that align with students’ individual strengths and challenges. Whether it’s through active learning strategies or tailored organizational techniques, I aim to empower students to take ownership of their learning.

By fostering an inclusive and adaptive learning environment, I help students not only grasp academic content but also develop critical skills for lifelong success. Together, we can turn challenges into opportunities for growth and achievement.

I aim to motivate students by giving them confidence in their abilities. Having worked with many students on the at risk register, I am used to helping students to develop self confidence and to overcome anxieties and self doubts.
