Information About Tara:

Personal Description:

I am an English lecturer working at the local regional college and I live in Stamford, Lincs. I have a degree in English language and Literature from the University of Leicester and am going to be studying for a masters in modern literature. I am passionate about all things literature related as well as theatre and the arts.

Teaching Experience:

I have been working as a tutor for over five years. I have taught English up to degree level on a private one-to-one basis and upon graduation I worked as an Assistant Director for a well known private tuition company which involved managing a centre of 250 students. During this time I specialised in coordinating all entrance exam courses and had a 100% pass rate within my group. Since then I have been working full time within a college environment teaching on GCSE, Access (A level equivalent) and level 1 English and workskill programmes. I have worked with children as young as four and adults as old as sixty and feel that my varied teaching background has provided me with an ideal foundation on which to teach those of all levels.

Tutoring Approach:

I have a very patient and personable approach to teaching, I find that both children and adults respond well to humour, respect and friendly guidance within a lesson, and I aim to instill this within my private tuition sessions. I plan to envoke a passion for the subject area which can then be transferred into skill with adequate tuition.
