Information about Anne
I am a retired teacher of science with over 18 years experience of teaching pupils aged 11-16, across the ability range. I have a BSc (Hons) Chemistry with Mathematics and a PGCE Chemistry with Combined Sciences. I am an Examiner for Pearson, GCSE Chemistry. I have received an award from the Joint Council for Qualifications in recognition for over 5 consecutive years as an examiner.
In the last 8 years I have been an examiner for Pearson (previously known as Edexcel). I have marked higher papers for GCSE Chemistry and also BTEC Levels 2 and 3 Applied Science. In 2017 I also marked the summer year 10 GCSE Progress tests for chemistry. This was an exam offered to year 10 pupils to give them an insight to the new GCSE Chemistry exams in 2018.
All of this has enhanced my tutoring and enable me to guide tutees on expectations required to successfully gain high grades
I have tutored pupils up to GCSE level in Separate Sciences, Combined Science and Mathematics. My approach to teaching has always been that every child matters and I always encourage pupils to reach their full potential. I recognise that everyone has their own style of learning and I will adapt my teaching to meet the needs of the individual pupil. I am willing to travel within 10 miles of my home.
I can tutor year 5/6 pupils for preparation for SATs, entrance exams and for extra confidence before they start high school.
Since the Covid 19 lockdown I have been tutoring pupils using Skype and Zoom. I will continue to do this for the foreseeable future until it is safe to do face to face lessons

Anne has recently started to tutor my son who is doing combined science gcse. She was very easy to make contact with and my sons understanding is improving and he is growing in confidence. Anne is very helpful in emailing us revision material on topics she has covered.

We engaged Anne to help our son, who is autistic, with his GSCE science work.
She has patiently worked through questions with him and has helped him to understand the subjects better.
We would recommend Anne.

My son (who has moderate dyslexia) really enjoyed working with Anne. He never once complained about the extra tutoring. In fact, quite the opposite - was keen to commit to it.
I thought the resources Anne used were very suitable for Nick.
I would recommend Anne for a wide range of ability children.
I am very grateful to her.
