Helen

I am passionate about English and working with young adults to help them develop the knowledge and skills they need to be successful in English. School life can be stressful and overwhelming at times and I see it as my role to alleviate some of these pressures and instil confidence.

Sessions will always be tailored around the student’s needs and areas for development; I will conduct an initial assessment in order to prepare lessons and resources that will maximise progress in future sessions. I love preparing lessons so be assured that activities will be engaging and varied!

I am approachable, friendly and always keen to receive feedback on what works best for the student.
