Helen - Lancaster tutor






Information About Helen:


Personal Description:

I'm a 23-year-old postgraduate student from Nottingham Trent University with two First Class degrees - one in English Literature from Lancaster University and a postgraduate degree in Print Journalism from Nottingham Trent University.
I'm friendly and approachable and love to meet new people. I live in Lancaster and intend to take on a further course of study in the next academic year - hopefully leading on to a PhD in English Literature.



Teaching Experience:

I have taught for several weeks at Skerton High School, in Lancaster, as well as taking part in several one-to-one teaching opportunities through college and University. I enjoyed my time spent teaching very much, which has influenced me to offer my services to children or adults who would benefit from a little extra attention on the run up to exams, in a subject they struggle with or in an academic area they'd like a bit of outside influence in.



Tutoring Approach:

I've always achieved very high results myself but I don't believe this can be done working alone from a text book. I like to engage students with lots of questions and encourage them to work through their ideas out loud, through research and practical examples.
I achieved my two degrees, 5 As at A Level and 2 As and 9 A*s at GCSE this way - and I'm sure others can benefit from it too.
