Anji

I have been teaching English Literature and Language in mainstream UK secondary schools for the past twelve years, developing my practice through regular CPD and safeguarding courses. I enjoy adapting my resources to ensure lessons are engaging and create curiousity about language. My approach is to fill gaps in learning and to utilise discussion to establish clear and organised ideas, before approaching questions. I`ve enjoyed teaching a broad spectrum of abilities within diverse communities and the most pleasing aspect of my work is seeing a student progress each lesson, with improved understanding and practice.
In addition to school teaching, I am an experienced 1 to 1 tutor, having worked independently with students with a range of needs and within tuition centres.

Availability: I am available for in-person sessions from 4pm weekdays and can offer weekend tuition upon request.

Willing to travel: 5 miles

Experience: I`ve worked in UK secondary schools teaching English and have also taught drama over my twelve year career. I`ve also tutored for eight years, working on a one-to-one basis with varying abilities to help students achieve their full potential. On average, tutees using my service have made two grades of progress, most of whom achieved A grades in their literature and language exams. I ensure that resources are differentiated to maximise engagement as well as using texts that resonate with students based on their personal interests. Assessment criteria is embedded into most lessons to enable students to familiarise themselves with key terminology used by examiners as they progress towards school based assessments.
