Alison - Plymouth tutor






Information About Alison:


Personal Description:

I am 24 and currently work in a local art gallery.
I studied History at Royal Holloway, University of London and Sydney University, Australia and then went on to take a Masters in Art History at Bristol University.
I am a friendly and outgoing person with a real passion and interest for History, Art History and English.



Teaching Experience:

I have 8 years of experience helping to tutor both my peers and younger students on a one to one basis at University, A-Level and GCSE level as well as some primary students.
This includes teaching factual information, assisting with research, instructing how to write essays and explaining how to structure successful exam answers.
I have tutored pupils on a short term basis helping revision before exams as well as on longer terms, seeing pupils through a full course.



Tutoring Approach:

I believe that each person has a different approach to learning as well as different paces at which they learn. I have had much success in tutoring by trying different teaching styles until i find a suitable one for each individual.
Learning doesn't have to be boring and a one to one teaching session is often more enjoyable for the pupil than a large class at school.
I also believe that structuring essays and knowing how to answer exam questions are critical to success and are a crucial skill to learn.
