Information About Rebecca:

Personal Description:

I have just qualified as a teacher from Canterbury Christ Church University and I am now excited and very enthusiastic about teaching.
I live in Huddersfield in Yorkshire now but I am willing to travel long distances to tutor.
I am currently looking for a part-time teaching job so I can carry on private tutoring, as I have always wanted to help people who are struggling at school.

Teaching Experience:

I have experience of teaching from the age of 15, where I volunteered to work in my local primary school, I then continued to return to the school until I was 17 years old, whenever I had free periods from college.
Whilst at University I worked with deprived children over a long weekend, to give them drama skills.
After obtaining my degree I got an acting job travelling around Barnsley, Birmingham and Stoke-on-Trent, promoting safe sex by doing a theatre in education play. This was done with 13 to 15 year olds and after every performance we would do workshops with the children.
On my P.G.C.E course I did two long placements, my first was in an affluent area of Ramsgate in a reception class and the second was in a deprived area of Canterbury in a year two class. I passed both placements with both good and excellent marks.

Tutoring Approach:

Even though I am offering reading and writing tuition for primary school children I have experienced older children and adults who also struggle with these essential skills. I would therefore love to help whoever I could, as not everyone finds reading and writing easy.
I use the sounds write approach, which is a mixture of jolly phonics and the blending of letters together to make words. This, in my experience, has created very positive results in learning to read and write.

Qualifications:

• Pass - P.G.C.E Lower Primary - Canterbury Christ Chucrh University.
• 2i BA Honours degree - Theatre Dramaturgy - Bretton College, Leeds University
• A- Levels - B's in Theatre Studies and Media Studies, C in English Literature.
• G.C.S.E's - C and above grades for all subjects, including Maths, English and Science.
