**Please note that I am unavailable for tutoring from 2 January 2016 - 2 January 2017, as I will be travelling and teaching overseas**

At school I was a dedicated student who not only took control of my own learning, by that of others too. I tutored throughout the GCSE exam period as well as studying for my own, and achieved 9 A* and 3 A grades.

Since then, I have continued to tutor GCSEs. I offer a learning approach that at first may seem bizarre (lots of repetition, hand gestures, lots of laughs, and sometimes even a bit of singing) but aim to bring out the best in students by increasing their confidence in themselves.

Teaching is a passion of mine and so sessions are always fun and varied. I know exactly how it feels to be going through the tough final years of school, so appreciate that a different style of learning out of school hours can really be the extra boost to your studies.

I am happy to tutor any subject, although my strengths lie in GCSE biology, chemistry, physics, maths and French.

Availability: Weekday evenings, all day weekends

Willing to travel: 3 miles

Experience: Teaching peers throughout the exam period, and going on to paid tuition, starting in late 2013.
