Samuel - Hove tutor






Information About Samuel:


Personal Description:

I am a clear communicator with a passion for learning. I have a firm grasp of the English language and film studies gained through academic studies, and a working knowledge of the media gained from research posts in television broadcasting.



Teaching Experience:

Throughout my five years in academia, I have regularly given presentations, led seminars and participated in question and answer sessions. I have worked with 11-14 year olds in a voluntary reading support programme. I have a young daughter whom I constantly encourage in her reading and language skills.



Tutoring Approach:

One should always have a clear objective with every lesson, beginning with material which sparks debate, then working through the material encouraging the student to bring out the key points, with prompting if necessary. Then, together, the student and tutor build a summary of what has been discovered. The first half of a lesson should always be engaging and thought-provoking. One should always encourage students to question and think for themselves, and take an imaginative approach. The second half should involve the student bringing together what they have learnt in a clear summary.
