Personal Message
My students are all treated as individuals and grow in confidence during their time with me. Skills are encouraged and developed through a happy, friendly working atmosphere.
Which subject(s) do you teach?
I currently teach Business studies and Economics to A Level. I also teach business modules for BTEC Qualifications at Levels 2 and Levels 3, examples of these include communication, economics, ethics, HR Recruitment and Selection, Retail, Health & Safety, Business structure and organisations. I also tutor towards 11+ and tutor primary students to improve their English and Maths.
Tell me about your qualifications.
I initially obtained an industry professional qualification at Warwick University under the Institute of IT Training in 1998. I then moved to education where I undertoook the CertEd on a 2 year part time course starting in January 2006 and finishing in 2008 which I passed. This was through the University of Greenwich.
What kind of experience do you have?
I started teaching students from 16-60 in industry mainly teaching IT and "soft skills" for example, team working, motivation, presentation skills, etc. I also taught them to pass the MOS exams covering Word, Powerpoint, Excel and Access. During this time I taught abroad in Europe, Australia and Asia. I also mentored students at an East London school not only helping improve their english and maths skills but motivating them to move into further education and into college courses. I then changed direction and moved from industry into education. I am able to teach primary school children and 14-19 year olds. I specialise in Business and Economics for secondary students. I also help with academic writing for university students together with supporting those students studying business or economic related degrees.
How much do you charge?
My fees start from £20 for primary children up to £25 for GCSE/A Level. This fee includes all materials. I also have an extensive amount of books which students are free to borrow on a weekly basis. To accommodate all teaching requests sessions are run from my home.
Where do you teach?
I teach at my home on an individual basis or in a group of no more than 4 students. I currently teach students from Braintree, Chelmsford and its surrounding areas down to Brentwood in Essex. I have recently taken on students from Colchester.
When are you available?
I tutor at the weekends on a Saturday morning and occasionally Sunday if a tutee is unable to make their allotted time. I also offer tutoring after school. During school holidays I provide workshops for 11+ and for primary students to improve their maths and english before starting their new year at school. I also offer revision workshops to GCSE/AS/A Level students.
Which ages and levels do you teach?
5-11 primary and 11+ and 14-19 years of age, GCSE, A Level and Levels 2 and Levels 3 Business and Economics. I am also able to tutor for BTEC Business qualification.
Which qualifications do you prepare your students for?
11+ SATS GCSE AS/A Level BTEC Degrees
Do you have an up-to-date CRB (Criminal Records Bureau) disclosure certificate?
Yes
Describe your arrangements for online tutoring.
I do not currently tutor online.
Tell me about some of your current students.
I am currently tutoring primary children to improve their reading and spelling. I am also tutoring year 5 children on verbal reasoning, maths and english to undertake the 11+ exam. I also have some children ready to take 11+ and entrance exams to private school from September 2012. My GCSE and A Level students are studying maths, english, business and economics with a view to sitting these exams during 2012. Some study on a 1-1 basis, others are in workshop sessions or group sessions encouraging and supporting each other.
Do you have a personal message for students?
I believe you can achieve if you set yourself an achievable goal. Look at what you need to do to get there and then break it up in to small easy steps to. Once achieved, then set your next goal. You will find you will build in confidence and be more motivated to learn.
