Information about Emily

I have been working as a tutor in London since I moved here in January 2016 and have worked with a wide variety of students on subjects from the 7+ entrance exams right up to A Level preparation to ensure students make their grades for university. I am pleased to say I have a great success rate, with my 11+ students gaining places to leading London independent schools and my A Level tutees getting the grades necessary to secure their places at Russell Group universities.

I believe the key to effective tuition is to recognize that each student is an individual with different skills and different obstacles, so being flexible in my teaching approach is key to its success. I also think it is very important to make the tutoring experience a positive one so that students get as much as possible out of their studies. The risk sometimes with tutoring is that students feel that they are having the tuition because they are struggling so I aim to make my session focused on support and a place to ask any questions on the subjects that they are struggling with, to build understanding for areas that they might find difficult and therefore to be constructive and encouraging.

Outside of tutoring I also work in a freelance capacity as a writer and director for both film and theatre (if anyone is interested details of my work can be found at www.emily.info). I have found tutoring works very well alongside this as I am able to organize my filming dates/deadlines around my tutoring sessions. I also work with the arts charity Tender, delivering drama workshops to teach students about healthy relationships in schools across London.

I currently live in East Dulwich and am ideally looking for students who would be willing to be tutored at my home or online.

Availability: I am currently available for tutoring during the week and at weekends.

Willing to travel: 1 miles

Experience: I have tutored a variety of subjects for a wide range of students from 7+/9+/11+ (Maths, English, Verbal & Non-verbal reasoning), GCSE (English, Drama, History, Spanish), and A Level (English & Theatre Studies.) I have also home-schooled History GCSE, English Literature, and Theatre and worked alongside pupils on exam skills and on developing specific coursework projects for both school and university.

I have an enhanced DBS check and have received specialist training for working with students with SEND. This includes autism awareness training and I always strive to make my tutoring sessions accessible for my students.

As well as securing work through Tutor Hunt, I have worked with agencies such as TutorDoctor Dulwich, Ludo Tutors, and Gate Academy Junior Tuition Centre. Outside of tutoring, I also work with the arts charity Tender, delivering drama workshops to teach students about healthy relationships in schools across London.

The owner of Gate Academy Junior tuition centre in Leeds (where I have previously worked with KS2 pupils) said this: "[Emily is an] Excellent tutor. Very professional and able to adapt according to ability 5/5."

DBS Check: Yes
