With a history degree from Exeter University and a PGCE in secondary education from Roehampton, I have over 22 years’ experience of teaching and tutoring, in both state and private sectors, in the UK and overseas.
I have tutored in Bristol for 10 years; with 6-year olds just starting their learning journeys, through teenagers needing support with life-changing exams, to adults seeking a little help to get back into education.
History was my main classroom subject, and I expanded my teaching far beyond this to nine academic subjects. This enables me – unusually for a tutor – to offer support in a range of areas such as English, maths, history, psychology, sociology and geography.
This means I often work with families for many years. I first began working with one of my clients in 2011 while the children were at primary school: the youngest has just finished their final year of A level support!
As well as tutoring, I’ve marked exams and edited educational resources, having worked as Launch Editor for eachit History in 2012, and I bring a wealth of knowledge and expertise to inform my teaching practice. I have also taught English as a foreign language with children and adults in both South Korea and Japan.
I still have as much enthusiasm for tutoring as I did when I began, perhaps even more so after the challenges to education of recent years.
