Paul's profile picture

Information About Paul:


Personal Description:

I have spent nearly thirty years in teaching within Kent schools & was a Head of Chemistry for about half that time. I then retrained in teaching English to foreigners in preparation for a period of prolonged travel abroad. I have now returned to UK and begun to undertake maternity covers, part-time teaching and private tuition again.
The fees quoted are for visits to my home. However if I am travelling to your home then there would of course be a satnav/mpg calculation for the necessary travel costs which we could agree prior to accepting any offer or paying any agency fee.



Teaching Experience:

I taught at Newstead Wood School Orpington from 1974 to 1989 then
Head of Chemistry at Tunbridge Wells Girl's Grammar from 1990 to 1994 then
Head of Chemistry at Woldingham School from 1994 to 2002


Then CELTA retraining with language exchange lessons in Thailand and Japan
From sept 2010 ongoing, I have taught 0.4 part time chemistry at Dunottar school.



Tutoring Approach:

Friendly, supportive, positive and with a sense of humour. My recent experience teaching adults with poor English skills has helped me to develop simpler ways of phrasing explanations. I have always enjoyed private tuition, achieving good rapport with my students.
