Information about Emma

I am Head of Social Sciences in a Co-Ed Sixth Form where I currently teach Psychology and Sociology. I also examine for AQA Sociology A-Level and have done since 2016. I am very enthusiastic, friendly and knowledgable about my subject, having taught Sociology and Psychology for 10 years in an range of different settings. I have a good sense of humour and am very patient. I also have two children under 3 years old who keep me fairly busy!!

I tend to focus on exam technique, practicing answer structures, breaking down exam questions and producing and marking answers in partnership with students so they can gain a real understanding of the exam requirements, increasing their confidence and thus performance! I am very patient and pride myself on being able to break down complex theories into understandable chunks through the use of real life examples to help students to better meet the demands of their exams.

Availability: Currently available some weekdays, evening and weekends.

Willing to travel: 8 miles

Experience: - Head of Social Sciences in an Outstanding boys Comprehensive School.
- Before becoming Head of Faculty I was Head of Department for Sociology for 5 years.
- I have been teaching for 10 years across both sixth form colleges and school sixth form.
- I have been an examiner for AQA Sociology since the new linear specifications have been introduced (2015 with first exams sat in 2016)

I am happy to tutor in any of the topics in Sociology, but specialise in Education, Mass Media, Families, Crime, Research Methods and Methods in context and Theory in Sociology. I currently examine paper 1 and 2 of the A level but am additionally confident to tutor in exam technique and content for the AS level as well.
