Information about Alison

I am an experienced examiner for GCSE and A-Level History. I have developed considerable and extensive knowledge of the GCSEs, especially with AQA and particularly the iGCSE papers and Edexcel. For A-Level I mark the international papers and summer exam papers for AQA and CIE. I am familiar with the rigours of exams, timing and techniques in order for student`s to achieve their full potential.

In my current position, I have developed the teaching of the 11+ Reasoning and Non-Verbal reasoning to complement the demands of the GDST. As a result, my students have been offered places (and scholar-ships) at Wycombe Abbey, Godolphin and Latymer, City of London School for Girls and Francis Holland. The boys have also been offered places at Latymer, Dulwich College and Mill Hill.

Availability: After 6pm Monday-Thursday.

Weekends.

Willing to travel: 5 miles

Experience: I have been teaching for 20 years and taught GCSE History to different cohorts and abilities during that time. I currently teach AQA but have taught WJEC, Edexcel and OCR in the past.
I am an examiner for AQA and am familiar with the exam technique and subject knowledge across all topics.

DBS Check: Yes

I could not recommend Alison highly enough. Not only did she help my daughter understand the history GCSE curriculum, but she also helped her develop a genuine interest in history…. what a gift! In earnest, my daughter looked forward to seeing Alison each week, and will miss their time together. Alison is the teacher that we all wish we had.
