Miranda

I`m a very experienced teacher of English and have a passion for my subject. I`ve been teaching for over 22 years and worked in several schools around Enfield, Barnet, Hertfordshire and currently Essex, both in state and in independent schools. I`ve had additional duties in my schools, these being Head of English and Head of Year.

Currently, I am KS4 and KS5 coordinator in my current school and responsible for implementing the new curriculum changes as well as supporting the Head of department.

I have also been tutoring for a few years and worked for a tutorial company for over two years and worked with primary as well as secondary school students. I am able to teach English from KS2 to KS5.

A couple of years ago, I had the privilege to work for several weeks in a primary school to broaden my experience of Literacy and found this very rewarding.

I love working closely with children and take my job seriously. I enjoy the challenges and rewards that teaching brings, particularly when tutoring students who lack confidence and feel they won`t pass their GCSE and then see them getting excellent results. It`s really about inspiring and giving those students confidence.

Availability: Available to teach afternoons and evenings, also during school holidays if requested.

Willing to travel: 3 miles

Experience: Experienced teaching English from KS2 to KS5. With GCSE, I have taught GCSE English with most of the exam boards: AQA, Welsh Board, OCR and Edexcel. I have also taught Functional Skills and Key Skills in Communication.
