Amy

Hello! I`m Amy, I’m 33 and I live in beautiful York with my partner Dan and our lively foster kittens!

If you are looking for a tutor who is warm, friendly, patient and creative, then I might be a good fit for you or your child. I am very happy to tutor on a one-off or weekly basis, concentrating on specific topics or simply helping with essay planning and editing or exam preparations, or a better understanding of a favourite or difficult subject.

The first session with me is an opportunity for you to tell me what it is you need and decide if we would work well together. I`ll give you a rough idea of what we would do and you can tell me if you would like to go ahead or that you think it isn`t for you.

I`m afraid I`m not able to tutor anyone below GCSE level as I have no experience with this.
