Lyndsey - Newcastle-under-Lyme tutor






Information About Lyndsey:


Personal Description:

My name is Lyndsey Oliver and I am currently undertaking a Music Journalism degree. I have qualifications in Journalism, English and I.T. I am an honest hardworking individual, and love to help others succeed.



Teaching Experience:

Although I have no direct teaching experience it has always been a passion of mine. I have helped my younger cousin through her school life as she is dyslexic. I provided on-going support and made her feel totally at ease with all subjects that she completed. I have recently helped my brother in law undertake his GCSE's and my husband undertake a course in Maths and English in his Learn Direct course. Both of whom were dyslexic. I have also undertaken work experience in a primary school, and have helped others in both my college and university life during studying.



Tutoring Approach:

I feel that a relaxed style benefits tutees greatly. Deadlines and an enthusiasm are essential to my style. Although my style is rather informal (I prefer first name terms and a friendly approach) I am able to stay disciplined and helpful.
