David

My name is Dave and I am a 33 year-old Primary school teacher from Ireland.

I am currently teaching a lovely year 4 class at an outstanding school in South West London, but I enjoy the opportunity to do 1-1 teaching as well.

I have already done a lot of 1-1 tutoring in Maths, guitar and TEFL (teaching English as a foreign language) and I really do enjoy the more personal teaching/ learning experience. I am an enthusiastic, patient teacher who is capable of improving self-esteem and enabling a child to reach his/ her true potential.

I am especially skilled in the tutoring of Maths at a variety of levels and have written a paper on Dyscalculia in addition to to researching effective Maths tuition for my Masters credits.

Prior to re-training as a primary school teacher, I worked for a number of year as an aeronautical engineer.

I look forward to hearing from you.

Experience: I have taught in a variety of schools and year groups in both London and Oxford. I have also spent time teaching English in public schools in both South Korea and Bolivia.

Furthermore, I have spent a number of Summers as a residential teacher in a thriving Summer School in Oxford where I was responsible for the education of and pastoral care for foreign teenagers studying English here.
