Information About Jessica:
Personal Description:
I am a qualified teacher in Secondary School Science and also a chemist with a German Diplom in Chemistry (equivalent to MSc). During my training as a scientist I studied organic, inorganic, physical, food- and biochemistry as well as maths, physics and toxicology. I currently work as a part-time teacher of science in a secondary school and also tutor GCSE and A- level students in German and Science on a one-to-one basis. I would appreciate the opportunity to use my experience and knowledge to enthuse other people for my subject and mother tongue and to help them achieve their qualifications.
Teaching Experience:
I trained as a Secondary School Science teacher and obtained my PGCE from the University of East Anglia in July 2007. During my training I gained a lot of experience in various school settings, teaching students on a one-to-one basis as well as in small groups and large classes. I learned to use various teaching approaches to suit different types of learners and also obtained experience with Special Needs Children.
Since then I have tutored a large variety of students ranging from complete beginner to university candidates, helping them to boost their confidence and grades as well as prepare for exams and interviews.
Tutoring Approach:
Rather than using school-type teaching to repeat what has already been heard during lesson I like to explore and identify the areas of strengths and weaknesses of each student and develop a method to improve learning strategies involving a variety of exercises. My aim is to boost the confidence of each learner and equip them with tools to analyse the tasks ahead and solve problems.
It is important to create exciting, stimulating and challenging exercises based on sound theory and facts to gain the learners interest in the subject and motivate them to explore further.
