Information about Fiona
Hello, my name is Fiona. I am a fully qualified and experienced Head of English at a London Prep School. Although I am experienced teaching all subjects, my speciality is 11+ English tutoring. I will cover creative writing, reading comprehension, grammar and verbal reasoning. I have a wealth of resources and understanding of 11+ requirements. I also have experience teaching Maths to KS2 and KS3 and tutoring GCSE Maths.
I am friendly and approachable and love designing fun and interactive lessons. I have experience supporting pupils with SEN needs, specifically ADD, ADHD and Dyslexia. I will tailor make lessons to support and target individual needs. I also have experience teaching abroad (2 years in Thailand) and would be happy to work with pupils where English is not their first language.
I understand the pressure of preparing for 11+ exams and will incorporate positive mindset, managing stress and exam technique and opportunities to build self-esteem and confidence within my lessons.
Availability: Weekdays and Weekends - flexible availability. Contact me if you are interested.
Willing to travel: Home Only
Experience: I possess over a decade of experience as a qualified Teacher. My journey has taken me to a range of schools in both London and Brighton College Bangkok in Thailand. This diverse exposure has endowed me with a wealth of knowledge regarding teaching methodologies, best practices, and the preparation required for various onward educational institutions. In recent years, I have focused my expertise on Independent Schools, primarily within London. However, I have a solid grasp of entry requirements for schools throughout the UK.
Currently, I am a specialist English Teacher and I lead the English department, ensuring the development of an engaging and inspirational curriculum that is language rich. I teach grammar, creative writing and reading comprehension. Previously, I have been a specialist Maths teacher in top independent schools covering KS2 and KS3 but I can also offer GCSE tutoring.
DBS Check: Yes

Fiona developed good connection with my daughter. She clearly is a teacher who can connect with younger children.
She is always on time and her lessons are well structured and organised. I would definitely recommend Fiona as a tutor.
