Jane

I am an experienced teacher with over 20 year experience of teaching in primary, secondary and independent schools.

My main area of expertise is English where students have achieved A grades at GCSE. In addition, in my role as a Special Educational Needs teacher providing learning support across the curriculum, I have taught GCSE maths to students struggling to achieve their grades and some have achieved grade B at GCSE. I also have experience of teaching the new 9-1 GCSE in English and maths.

As well as mainstream teaching, I have additional expertise in teaching pupils with Specific Learning Difficulties such as Dyslexia. I teach English and maths up to GCSE and Common Entrance at 7+, 11+ and 13+.

I tutor children across the age range from ages 4 to 16: from younger children struggling with reading difficulties Common Entrance including Verbal Reasoning and Non Verbal Reasoning English and maths at GCSE level.

I like to create a relaxed, stress free learning relationship with students in order to facilitate the best progress building self-esteem and self confidence is an important part of the process.

I usually travel to your home, but I can also meet older students in the local library. I charge £25 per hour at primary level and 11+, £30 for English at GCSE level, £35 for maths at GCSE Level and for 13+ common entrance exam preparation.

Availability: I am available weekdays after school. I also do weekends for GCSE students as part of revision and booster classes before exams.

I can also do weekday afternoons for college students doing English and maths GCSE resits and for those who do home school.
