Information about Alex
I have taught English for seventeen years, spending the last eight at my local secondary school in Stroud. Before that I spent the previous six years at a secondary school in Churchdown, where I was an `Outstanding` teacher in a department that was rated `Outstanding` by Ofsted.
I currently teach 11-16 year olds, specialising in students who struggle with literacy and GCSE grade 4/5 borderline students. I have also taught Gifted and Talented and Particularly Able students and have a proven track record across a range of ages.
I am also an experienced examiner who currently marks for a popular GCSE exam board.
I am a friendly, passionate English teacher and I live with my wife and two young sons in Stroud.
I always make time to read, I enjoy playing football and I`m a member of a Stroud writing group.
Availability: Weekdays after 4, with the possibility of weekends.
Willing to travel: 8 miles
Experience: Seventeen years teaching KS3-KS5 in three successful Gloucestershire comprehensive schools.

Feedback For Alex (10)

Alex has now completed our student`s preparation and she has done her GCSE exams in English Lit and Language. Alex has been really good at encouraging our Student to prepare her exam technique and her confidence over the last 18 months or so. His knowledge of the syllabus and experience as an examiner make him perfectly positioned to tutor privately. Happy customer.

Alex was very personable and relaxed. He helped my daughter with going through English lanaguage papers - looking at the structural questions that she was struggling with - this was a useful exercise and what we had hoped for. I would recommend Alex - I think if we had had time for further support he would have been excellent :)
