Joshua (Tutor)

 Geography (gcse, a-level)

 Law (gcse, degree, a-level)

I am training as a barrister and hold a Jurisprudence (Law) degree from the University of Oxford. I have over 2 years of experience as a tutor. As I sat GCSE and A-level papers myself only 6 years ago, many of my tutees comment on how this can be beneficial as I understand the demands of the papers.

I also tutor Geography at both GCSE and A-level. This is because it is a subject that interests me and, academically, I got full marks on the A-level papers when I sat them myself. I had originally intended only to teach Geography at GCSE level but my students asked me to continue to the full A-level after the excellent results they received with me at GCSE. To this end I can provide references.

I hold tutorials in London. Although, I am happy to travel reasonable distances.

Availability: Very flexible - weekends, weekdays, daytime and evenings

Willing to travel: 30 miles

Experience: I have been employed as a tutor for upwards of two years now, and have had several students, particularly at GCSE and A-level.

I generally teach to the AQA specifications throughout GCSE, AS and A2. That said, I have also taught to OCR and would be happy to do so again in the future. I provide a comprehensive set of notes on every topic covered, ideal for revision nearer to the exam.

I firmly believe that exam practice is the key to success, hence I am happy to set and mark practice exam questions and I spend a considerable amount of time refining approaches to problem questions, which are arguably the trickiest to answer.

Feedback (which I can provide references for):

From Amanda (5/5): (A-Level Geography) Joshua is a very knowledgeable, focused and organised tutor. His tutorials are both inciteful and enjoyable and have been an excellent supplement to my A2 revision.

From Maria (5/5): (GCSE Geography) I can thoroughly recomend Joshua as a Geography tutor. He has shown himself to be a committed and knowledgable tutor and has established a friendly but firm working relationship with my daughter. He has a flexible approach and interacts in a friendly and patient way but pushing for the best from the student.

From Jane (5/5): (GCSE Geography) Josh's discussion based tutorials are really suited to our son Alex. The sessions are relaxed and friendly rather than just written note-taking. Josh provides additional information sheets on the relevant topics and is happy to mark homework questions he sets with a view to helping with exam technique as well as the content. We are thoroughly pleased with the sessions to date and would have no hesitation in recommending him

From Isi (5/5): (A-Level Geography) Provided a quality learning environement, was able to fully participate in the lessons filled with conversation and discussion rather than just straight lecturing also provided well detailed and structured notes that will aid you and provides a specific solution to each exam problem. was a joyful experience as I was able to come out with a full and deeper understanding of the A2 course.
