I home schooled both my children from birth to GCSE. I then went on to take a BA in History and Creative Writing. I have also worked as a youth worker, both paid and voluntary, with the local council and with various denominations of churches.
I am able to support GCSE and A level English, History, Religious Studies, Philosophy, Theatre Studies, Drama and Citizenship, working with an already chosen syllabus, or with work from school.
With degree work I am willing to be a sounding board for most humanities and English subjects
From early years though to mid teens I take a very holistic approach combing all subjects together through the areas of the child`s interest. So would cover English, History, Geography, Religion and Philosophy, Arts all in one subject with lots of reading, poetry, conversation, painting and crafts, as well as long discussions.
I would be willing to set homework but it would be the parent`s responsibility to see that is accomplished, though of course I would go through this with the child when we next met.
I am also willing to support parents with encouraging their children with homework, with setting up as home educators or moving from home education to schooling, and also am willing to support with UCAS applications.
