I’m a graduate from a top ten university with a Master’s degree and an ex Gravesend Grammar student. Having always excelled at education, I find it incredibly enjoyable to be able to pass on the knowledge I’ve acquired over the years. In the last few years alone, over 60 students between the ages of 7-18 have benefitted from my personal teaching and guidance.

I’m easily approachable to students and treat them as individuals, identifying their own strengths and weaknesses. This, in particular, allows me to teach in a very personalised manor that supports the development of confidence. For younger students I try to make it as enjoyable as possible to keep the motivation high. Older students often comment on how easy I am to get along with and benefit greatly from the general advice I provide regarding their next steps.

I stay up to date with the latest teaching methods were appropriate but the methods and resources are personalised for each student. If I feel a student can benefit from a different method than this will be covered. Homework is always set revisions methods and exam technique are covered for 11+ and GCSE students. This includes problem solving and terminology.

As well as having a personalised study programme, I regularly try to contact students’ teachers to gather extra information about progress and any weaknesses. I provide extra books where applicable and always provide extra resources (notes, worksheets etc.) for students/parents to support their own learning. Feedback and progress updates are also given monthly to parents.

I hold an Enhanced DBS certificate and references from past students/parents can be provided on request. Proof of qualification/CV can also be provided on request (in person). I like to write regularly about all things education so feel free to have a look at a couple of the articles I’ve written on this website (I have a blog coming soon!).

Have a look below for more detail about my experience and success with different age groups. If you have any questions or enquiries don’t hesitate to get in touch. I’m more than happy to provide general advice and advice regarding future steps/careers for older students.
