Sara

My name is Sara. I went to primary and secondary school where I excelled in both Cambridge O`levels (As for Maths, English Language, English Literature, Biology, Physics, Geography, History and Art) and A`levels (A for Maths and Art, B for Geography). I then went on to study a Bachelor of Social Science degree and passed with a 2:1. My CIPD qualification has enabled me to work in a variety of positions in Human Resources. However, after having children I decided to become a tutor as I really enjoy helping people and it also gives me the flexibility to choose when I can work.

Availability: I am currently on maternity leave so will not be able to tutor.

I will be available from January 2021.

Willing to travel: 4 miles

Experience: Tutoring has been my profession for the past 4 years. I initially gained experience through a tutor agency as they provided advice and gave support when needed. Fast forward a few years and I ultimately ended up advertising myself on Tutor Hunt.

I have completed a 11+ training course to become knowledgable in this area. As a result, I am familiar with the requirements for 11+ for various schools and some of my students have won scholarships.

I also have had some hands on experience with autistic and dyslexic students.

I have had the experience of working with many extremely bright students who are very determined to excel as well as those students who are tending to struggle and as a result lack confidence as well.

I feel well placed to understand how one to one tutoring can be most effectively targeted to provide the best support and compliment school learning. I am confident that I can tutor students of varying abilities.

I am able to provide:
regular support (includes help with homework)
one off help with a particular topic
revision including intense courses in the run up to exams

Tutoring Approach:
Encouraging and friendly, all sessions are tailored to the individual needs of the student, providing support to improve grades and build confidence.

DBS Check: Yes
