Alex

Hi there, I’m Alex, a 1st-class degree graduate from Exeter- good to see you here! Let me tell you a little about my teaching approach.

I find the experience of helping students learn and grow deeply gratifying. And of course, building an open and supportive rapport is always an immensely enjoyable part of the teacher-student dynamic.

It should go without saying that the lesson`s structure and preparation work will centre around the individual student`s needs and suggestions. Once I know the target subject or area, I can prepare useful and engaging materials that we can work through together.

At the beginning of a lesson I like to ask more about the area in which the student would like to improve. Whether this means working on a student`s fluency to increase confidence, refining their use of grammar for independent self-editing or reviewing new vocabulary to add to their arsenal, rest assured we will work steadily and successfully through it.

A student`s progress is, of course, always an important part of the tutoring process. After our first few lessons, I will have accurately gauged a student`s strengths and weaknesses within the chosen topic, which we can use to plot a course for consistent improvement. Whatever the goal, long or short, I can offer a helping, enthusiastic and well-experienced hand.

Availability: Very flexible- get in touch so that we can find a time to suit you!

Experience: I have been tutoring and lecturing for nearly 3 years now, initially to primary school children and then to GCSE and A level classes at Brighton College; who, I am delighted to say, have recently invited me back to deliver a series of lectures. I continue to teach a range of students across GCSE, A-Level and University preparation stages.

I also have the TEFL teaching qualification, allowing me to teach English language on a certified and professional level.
