Information about Sarah
I`m a highly experienced and enthusiastic English teacher. Having worked in an `outstanding` comprehensive school for 20 years, I have now retired from full-time teaching. I`m also an examiner for AQA and therefore have an invaluable insight into the assessment criteria of exam boards and a clear understanding of mark schemes. In 2019, I was graded Excellent by AQA for my overall performance as an examiner.
Availability: I`m available most afternoons or early evenings apart from weekends.
Willing to travel: Home Only
Experience: Judged an `outstanding` teacher, I have over 20 years experience of teaching English at KS3, KS4 and KS5. My expertise is GCSE and A Level and I have successfully taught the current syllabus at both levels. Five students in the last GCSE group I taught at school achieved grade 9s which is well above the national average. I also have considerable experience of teaching support groups at GCSE.
Since I started private tutoring, my A Level student achieved a B (up two grades from a D) in the English Literature resit. My GCSE students have also done extremely well; in both English Language and Literature most students have improved at least two grades from either their mock or predicted marks.
DBS Check: Yes

We are currently using Sarah for our daughter to tutor her for GCSE English Language and Literature. Our daughter has found the tutoring sessions with Sarah very useful so far and we have seen an improvement in her work. Sarah is very organised and accommodating. She also tailors the sessions very well. We would recommend Sarah.

An update from my previous feedback in June now that results are in:
My daughter went up two grades from her mocks and I am sure it was Sarah`s tutoring that got her there.
