Information about Victoria
20+ years as a qualified teacher both in the UK and internationally. I teach Chemistry and Biology A Level and IBDP and all sciences at (I)GCSE level and for Key Stage 3.
I am experienced working with students who have English as a second, or even third, language. I am CELTA qualified and, in addition, have a qualification based on teaching EFL students within the mainstream classroom.
I push my students to make their own links between topics through careful questioning techniques and the use of increasingly more complex examples. I expect students to build on their previous knowledge, rather than each topic being isolated. This allows students to increase their deeper understanding and to retain knowledge which they can then apply when presented with novel situations.

My son finds Victoria very helpful with his studies for his GCSE`s. She is very good at explaining a topic and is very encouraging.

Vicky is absolutely great! She teaches very well and goes above and beyond to explain subjects to you, for instance some of my material is more advanced that A levels and she supplied me with notes to help my revision for my test. She also recommends books, and brought me relevant topics (such as physics) that will improve my understanding of some chemistry subjects. If you are looking for somebody that not only will give you their undivided attention, but also plan ahead before every session then look no further because she honestly is extremely organized, professional and thorough. Thank you so much for your hard work, explanation and outstanding planning of every session.
