View My Full Profile- Personal Message
- I retired from teaching in 2006 after 34 years in the job and since then I have been tutoring on a regular basis.
- Which subject(s) do you teach?
- I teach History, Government & Politics, International Relations, Business Studies and Religious Studies (but only to 13+ and Key Stage 3).
- Tell me about your qualifications.
- Certificate in Education, Bachelor of Arts (History), Counselling diploma, Professional Coaching (Education)
- What kind of experience do you have?
- I have been in teaching, both full-time and in tutoring for almost 40 years, and during that time, I have seen a tremendous number of students which has had its challenges but also its rewards. I taught in Canada for a while, and on returning to the UK, I became the Senior Tutor in an independent school in Middlesex, but I remained very much in touch with the classroom. I have been a tutor for 5 years but this time I have enjoyed the daily variety of people I meet and assist and also I do like the travelling, which is a different aspect to the job.I enjoy what I do and I am looking forward to extending my list of contacts even further.
- How much do you charge?
- For all students below GCSE level I charge £20 an hour. To everyone else above GCSE, I charge £25 an hour.
- Where do you teach?
- If families prefer, I do teach at home, but in my experience, most people prefer that I visit them and I am very happy to do so. I live near Epsom in Surrey, which I find is central to most places within a 15 to 20 mile radius. However, for 3 years, I had a student in Slough which was a greater distance than that, so it is not a strict limit. I have taught students in a variety of places in London, Croydon, Richmond upon Thames, Chertsey, Walton on Thames, Barnes, Wimbledon, Hounslow, Twickenham, Sunbury on Thames, Hampton, Streatham, Morden, as well as all places local to Epsom.
- When are you available?
- I am available most times - mornings, afternoons and evenings. I am also available during most holidays.
- Which ages and levels do you teach?
- I teach anyone from Key Stage 3, so that in effect means from the age of 11. I teach up to A Level, which includes Common Entrance and GCSE. I also teach adults who wish to improve their qualifications, or simply wish to pursue an interest in History or Politics.
- Which qualifications do you prepare your students for?
- I prepare students for end of year exams, Common Entrance, GCSE and A-Level.
- Do you have an up-to-date CRB (Criminal Records Bureau) disclosure certificate?
- Yes from September 2011.
- Describe your arrangements for online tutoring.
- I have taught students on MSN and skype, both of which have been a relatively new project for me. I have taught 5 GCSE students to date with successful outcomes.
- Do you belong to any professional organisations?
- No
- Where and with whom did you train?
- Westminster College in Oxford for my teaching certificate and London University.
- Tell me about some of your current students.
- I have a student in Barnes who lacked confidence in her ability but she took her GCSE in History and achieved a B grade. I am continuing to help her with her A Levels in History and Government & Politics.
I had a 15 year old student in Shepperton who refused to attend school and so I taught him at home, and over a period of time, we developed a rapport. I saw him through his GCSE in History and Business Studies, after which he attended a local school to study his A levels and is currently doing a History degree at university.
I had an able student in Ewell near Epsom. He was going to do Geography at university. When I helped him with his History A Level, he swapped Geography for History. He achieved full marks at A Level. - Do you have a personal message for students?
- I do like make to make a difference, whether that is improving your exam or revision technique, or improving your performance and are requiring a grade improvement, or even wishing to improve your confidence, all of which are basic to exam success. Most people I have come into contact with have been highly satisfied with the outcome, and essentially, I would like to do the same for you!
