I am highly-motivated to provide tailored one-to-one tuition. Students will benefit from my calm and patient approach which brings out the best in them. I enjoy the challenge of enabling each pupil to achieve their personal best and take great pride in my work. My belief is that praise and encouragement are the best tools of the trade and my methods are guaranteed to inspire progress and success. I relish the chance to work with individual students and aim to meet their needs and aspirations.

Availability: Please ask - I aim to find a convenient slot for all students.

Experience: I have many years of experience both in the classroom and in private tuition at a number of levels. I have been a Head Teacher and Year Six Form Tutor in a Preparatory School preparing pupils for 11+ and Common Entrance examinations. I have also taught Classics, French and English at Secondary level up to GCSE and Advanced Level standard. Having been a Special Educational Needs Co-ordinator, I have helped students with various needs and difficulties, especially de-motivated pupils and those with dyslexia and autistic issues. This has been challenging but extremely rewarding work. In my role as a Private Tutor I have enabled students to become up to speed with class work, course work and preparation for public examinations. I also teach for admission to state grammar schools at 11+ and for admission to independent schools at 7+, 11+ and 13+. My experience in both state and independent sectors proves invaluable.
