Information about Andrew

I am an experienced and enthusiastic tutor with a proven track record of achieving record breaking results at Geography GCSE, A-Level and 11 + exams.

I have worked at all levels within a range of leading Independent and state schools for the past 20 years. My roles have included classroom teacher, Head of Department, Head of Year and Deputy Head. In addition, I work as an examiner for various exam boards.

With regards to secondary school students, over the past twenty years I have assisted GCSE students gain top grades and 6th Form students gain entry to their first-choice university, including top Russell Group Universities.

In relation to primary school students, I have proven techniques to develop their verbal, non-verbal, English, comprehension and mathematical skills, which have enabled them to gain entry to their first- choice grammar school.

I am able to adapt my teaching methods to suit a wide range of abilities and ensure students remain engaged and enthused by implementing innovative teaching methods.

During school holidays I deliver one-week long intense booster revision sessions to 11 + students. These have proven extremely successful, (especially during the Easter and Summer holidays), in assisting students gain entry to their first-choice grammar school within Gloucestershire.

Availability: Weekdays, Weekends, School holidays and evenings.

Willing to travel: 50 miles

Experience: During my career I have achieved record breaking results through a relentless drive to stretch students, whilst ensuring that they are thoroughly enjoying their learning.

My approach to tutoring involves the use of innovative and varied, interactive activities, utilising ICT in a highly effective manner, whilst embedding crucial exam technique within each session. I use humour to engage students, and make them feel at ease, which enables them to fulfil their potential. Students always comment that they enjoy their tutor sessions and make huge developments in relation to their subject knowledge and skill set within a relatively short period of time. I always ensure students refine their exam technique through past exam paper practice.

Andrew provides online tuition for our daughter. The lesson started promptly, the full hour was filled with learning and he kept her engaged throughout. There were plenty of opportunities for questions and discussion where necessary. Our daughter cannot wait for her future lessons each week!

Andrew is extremely knowledgeable on the requirements and glide path required for children to prepare for their 11+. He has engaged really well with our son and provides the right balance of challenge and praise which he has responded really well to. Surprisingly, he actually looks forward to his 121 sessions.

My son has been having lessons with Andrew for a few weeks now. He enjoys the classes, and his confidence has grown. We appreciate Andrews`s help; hopefully, my son`s grades will improve.
