Information about Dan

I am a specialist Sociology teacher with huge experience and expertise built up over a 20-year teaching career at sixth form level. My teaching philosophy aims to deliver not only high grades and major, measurable improvement in student performance but also an enjoyable experience.

Availability: I am available both weekdays and Saturdays.

Willing to travel: 10 miles

Experience: In addition to 20 years of sixth form teaching, I have considerable experience of tutoring both sixth formers and mature students on a one-to-one basis. The exam board whose syllabus I have taught in recent years is the AQA and the main topics covered include ‘Families and Households’, ‘Education’, ‘Research Methods’, `Culture and Identity`, ‘Crime and Deviance’, ‘Beliefs in Society’, `Stratification` and ‘Theory and Methods’. Crucially, my students have an excellent record of examination success both as sixth form students and individual tutees. In terms of qualifications, I hold a doctorate / PhD, an MA at distinction level, a PGCE teaching qualification (specialising in post-16 education) and a BA (Hons).

DBS Check: Yes

Dan is a fabulous tutor, very down to earth and has a brilliant way of explaining the subject matter. Lots of enthusiasm and works hard to encourage engagement. My son looks forward to his lessons and is becoming more confident in his ability to tackle his upcoming A level Sociology exams.
