Charlotte - Cardiff tutor






Information About Charlotte:


Personal Description:

I am a creative and caring individual currently studying for a masters degree in Dramatherapy. I have worked as a writer on a national publication and am currently juggling acting jobs alongside my studies. I am an avid reader with particular skill for critically reviewing, creative writing and spelling and grammar. I have vast drama and theatre experience, both on and off stage/screen. I have many years experience of working with children of all ages.



Teaching Experience:

Whilst still at school myself I taught the year 7&8 drama group, more recently I have worked as a drama teacher and play writing tutor to teenagers participating in a summer camp at California State University, Northridge in LA. Also in L.A. I taught drama and theatre to disadvantaged teenagers with a company called City At Peace Los Angeles. I have vast experience of teaching reading to early years and primary aged children.



Tutoring Approach:

I have a warm and friendly approach following the ethos of positive reinforcement. Rather than focus on negative components (e.g. homework not done, spellings not looked at) I seek to reinforce the positive in each individual I work with, whether this be a vast improvement in their work, an insightful observation or simply turning up to the session. I am firm but not harsh and ultimately very approachable. I will set up boundaries and aim to have fun in the tutoring sessions to boost capacity to learn. I can use dramatic techniques to boost self-confidence, explore character and enhance learning.
