Information about Howard
I am an Economics and Geography teacher with over 20 years experience of teaching students at both A-Level and GCSE level. My students consistently make outstanding progress, and achieve high grades. I have extensive experience of preparing students to be successful in their examinations, and developing in them the depth of knowledge and understanding required to achieve their full potential.
I believe that confidence and self-belief form a key part of success at GCSE and A-Level, and my tutoring style focuses on developing this through thorough preparation of appropriate case studies and ensuring students have a clear understanding of exactly what is required to maximise performance in their examinations.
I support students to revise effectively, and focus on developing the necessary academic skills to be able to apply knowledge and understanding in the examinations. I achieve this through carefully planned tutorial activities which focus on purposeful active learning to consolidate and build on existing knowledge and understanding, and to strengthen examination technique.
Willing to travel: Home Only
Experience: I am a qualified and experienced teacher of Economics and Geography, and have worked in secondary schools for over 20 years. I have served as a Head of Department, Deputy Headteacher responsible for quality of provision and examiner for an awarding body.

Howard, started tutoring my son like 2 months before his A Levels and at this time my son was adamant he could not do the exams because he did not understand it all, didnt know how to read for it and had failed every test he had done thus far. After just a few lessons and his confidence just shot up. went from being adamant he would fail to driving for high grades. His tests moved from E grade tests to B grade tests and he has just done his last Geography A level exams with a lot of motivation and confidence and this is all due to Howards tutoring over only a few weeks . !!!! My feedback is that you cant get any one better than Howard, worth all the investment and over. Regards from a Very happy mum

Howard has been an excellent A Level Geography tutor and I could not have asked for better help in preparing for my exams. He has allowed me to manage what we do in each lesson depending on what I would like to cover, making our lessons focused and more than worthwhile. He gives incredibly useful feedback on exam questions I complete and is always well-prepared for our lessons even when I email at midnight the night before with what I would like to cover! His knowledge of the specification and case studies is outstanding and has been invaluable in helping me prepare for my A Level. Howard is always friendly and happy to answer any questions, explaining things in a clear and engaging manner when it comes to both course content and answering exam questions. I am grateful for the help he has provided so far and am much more confident going into my exams this summer.
