My Teaching Philosophy
Working With The Mark Scheme:
I center my lessons around clear, effective techniques tailored to mark schemes, covering everything from studying and note-taking to analysing texts and writing answers.
By working through each step of these techniques together in detail we ensure that, no matter what questions appear on the exam, my students can always be confident that they know what they need to do to get the marks, and have a clear idea of both how to analyse the sources, texts, poems, etc. and how to write answers for every kind of question.
Tailoring Work and Revision to You:
Everyone learns differently, and tutoring lets us tailor everything to suit your individual needs and learning style, work out the most effective ways for you to understand and retain information reliably, and translate that information into results in your exams.
Whether you need support with understanding content or improving essay technique, we’ll find the most effective and sustainable study methods for you.
Keeping Things Interesting and Entertaining:
I know how dull studying can feel, so I bring my passion for the subject into every lesson to make learning genuinely engaging, and therefore, connect with the material in a way that makes it more memorable and meaningful.
Whether it’s sharing fascinating historical context of an event, or using modern examples like Star Wars or Avengers to explain literary concepts, I always ensure my students have a reason to be interested in the topic beyond simply the need to get the grades at the end of it all.
Holistic Tutoring
Having always been drawn to roles with a pastoral focus, I take a holistic approach to tutoring that prioritises both academic progress and personal wellbeing.
I believe that success is built on a healthy foundation, so I check in regularly with students, encourage balance, and offer support when life’s pressures become overwhelming, helping them feel heard, equipped, and not alone. For me, good tutoring isn’t just about grades; it’s about fostering confidence, resilience, and a healthy mindset, too.
