I have taught the AQA and OCR componants and have an excellent understanding of how to guide students to achieving grade 8 and 9s. I have also been an AQA GCSE examiner for the examination module and could advice students on how to construct answers that would award them maximum marks! I have excellent report with all my students and like to make learning and producing the written portfolio fun and enjoyable. I have a bank of recourses that will guide and help students to complete work independently confidently and accurately.
