Experience: Since May 2019 I have worked as a part-time tutor for a reputable agency in Colchester. During this time I have tutored almost 200 hours, with numerous success stories.

I have experience helping students re-sitting English exams at GCSE, students with knowledge gaps, essay writing, exam preparation, handwriting, punctuation, grammar, spelling, creative writing, understanding Shakespeare (Macbeth, Romeo and Juliet only), annotation and note-taking skills. I have tutored students to prepare for their speaking assessment at GCSE (achieved Distinctions).

Over the past two years I have worked with home-schooled students in History and English between KS3-KS4, marking past papers and essays, along with providing a recommended grade for GCSE. I have held timed, exam-condition assessments.

My key skills are helping students memorise facts, explaining information to develop knowledge, essay planning and writing, exam strategy and how to make effective revision materials.

I work with student to build their confidence, communication and organisational skills. My aim is to support students, helping them to build skills which go beyond the classroom!

During my A-Levels I had experiences of teaching, both English Literature and Law.
I worked aboard a six star cruise ship and taught English to an engineer, in order to help him pass his English test (which he did).

I tutored my sister when she was doing her GCSE`s and A-Levels in History and English Literature. She came top 5%.
