Information about Melissa
****Looking for a little extra push?****
I am a qualified secondary English language and Literature teacher with 6 years teaching and tutoring in the UK and abroad. My students are usually GCSE and A-level students who have all improved their grades by at least 2 levels whilst working towards their exams.
I use a range of methods and activities to keep sessions engaging. My students are always invited to give feedback to ensure they are getting the most out of their learning. As requested, I am able to support with other literacy needs and revision techniques across subjects.
I always adapt my sessions to the individual needs and learning styles of my students. I am able to offer additional support out of hours to help students meet their goals as well as for online sessions.
Availability: Weekday evenings and Sundays
Willing to travel: 10 miles
Experience: Former secondary school teacher with 6 years experience. I continue to work with young people in my spare time. I continue to tutor whilst working with adult learners full-time.
I have a strong experience of both group and individual tuition. I am well experienced supporting adults and school-age students with English as a second language. I have been trained to work with students with additional behavioural needs and learning needs.
DBS Check: Yes

We are so happy to have found Melissa as a tutor. Initially we wanted extra tuition just for the summer holidays but the work she does is so good that we are looking at continuing. Theres good communication with us but best of all Melissa quickly built a great working relationship with our very energetic 6 year old son! The methods she uses are engaging and fun. I would definitely recommend

Melissa is according to my son, really good at explaining things. She is also flexible in setting up the classes.
