I have been teaching and mentoring young people and adults, all levels up to Master degree since 1994. My deep knowledge of the arts and extensive experience, has produced a simple and comprehensive system, which inspires a student to follow and achieve their highest potential fast. Very effective and resourceful teaching at meeting deadlines, creating portfolios, improvising last-minute interventions, preparing for exhibitions and art competitions, et al.

Since 2007 and in parallel to my private teaching, I have been working with various organizations, as a Tutor/Mentor and an Education Advisor, on one to one basis and in groups, organizing and delivering tailor-made art programmes for individuals and groups of vulnerable people: young people with complex needs such as physical or learning disabilities and/or with behavioural challenges, in collaboration with their families or carers, people experiencing addictions and/or mental health distress, ex offenders, et al.

Tutoring Approach:

Personal Description:
For nearly 20 years, I have successfully tutored young students in literacy for KS1, 2 and 3 and for GCSE and A levels, in English Language and English Literature. I have also had some adult learners.
I am currently working on line.

Teaching Experience:
I have been particularly successful helping students to improve their GCSE grade, helping students improve on their mock result. I am fully upto date with the latest syllabus requirements.

Tutoring Approach:
I concentrate on working with the student's perceived weaknesses and on common exam mistakes. In the case of GCSE and A levels it is often the student who leads and asks for help with specific issues. Additionally, I always revise the main elements of the syllabus and give the student plenty of practice with examples of written work.
I tutor on-Iine. I have many excellent references and a DBS certicate.

Subjects

Personal Description:
I hold a First Class Honours degree in English Language and Literature (University of St Andrews) and a Doctorate / PhD in English Literature (University of Leeds).

In the recent past I have worked as a University Professor in English and have published books and articles on English and Media. Some of these are standard set study texts. I have also served as an Examiner and as a University Admissions Tutor. I am qualified to teach under the PTLLS scheme.

Dr Ian is based in Birmingham / West Midlands and has been described as friendly, patient, sympathetic and approachable. Tuition is offered to improve exams and coursework for school, college, or University. Recent work has included AQA GCSE and A-level Engish Language and Literature.

I am also able to provide support if you are new to the UK and want academic editing and proof-reading for you MA, MSc or PhD.

Teaching Experience:
I have undertaken teaching and training in Schools (Primary and Secondary) and in the University Higher Education Sector (to Post Graduate level) over a period of twenty-five years.

During that period I have worked with very gifted students as well as children and adults who have needed special support in order to reach their full potential. Recently I have work with PhD students from India, Poland, Jordan, Iran, China, Pakistan, Japan, and the UK.
My specialist areas are English Language and Literature; Study, Exam and Revision Skills. Short, intensive 1-to1 courses are available for exam revision and exam technique. Reduced rates are available for longer contracts, or for students living in the locality.

Tutoring Approach:
ONLINE teaching only.

My teaching is always adapted to YOUR specific needs and is informed by critical and creative strategies that have a proven track record.

I work in partnership with YOU in order to identify YOUR most urgent needs and and the goals to be achieved. Together we address issues of motivation and the acquisition of key subject study skills. The process builds on creative strategies for self-improvement which leads to enhanced enjoyment and success.

Subjects

Personal Description:
I offer one-to-one tuition in maths, biology, chemistry and eleven plus. One-to-one tutoring is a great way for students to become more confident in their subject, and to ask all those questions they don't ask in class. My graduate degree is in chemistry, while I also have a doctorate in medical molecular genetics and a teaching qualification.

Teaching Experience:
I have thirteen years' experience as a tutor and have tutored over 200 students in maths, chemistry, biology and physics. My students include home-schooled students and students who self-study.

I tutor maths at various levels, from Functional Skills to GCSE and chemistry, biology, physics and combined science at GCSE level.

Furthermore, I tutor chemistry and biology at A-level. I am comfortable supporting students with any aspect of their syllabus and, in particular, with the mathematics of chemistry and biology and the biology topic of genetics and biotechnology. Human biology is a particular interest of mine.

Tutoring Approach:
My approach to tutoring is different for every student because every student requires support with different sections of the curriculum. Students studying for an exam may need help with subject content or exam technique, or both, while students who are not in exam years may need support with topics addressed in class. I plan the tutoring sessions around those needs and always with the individual student in mind, which is why the sessions are different for every student. I very much value input from the student with regard to areas of difficulty and learning style so that together we can get the most out of our time. I offer in-person and online tuition.

I am now taking bookings for the next academic year, 2025-2026. Lessons can start from June onwards. For home-schooled students and those self-studying, I am available during the day.

Personal Description:
Oxford-educated and experienced English tutor, with a fantastic track record of guiding students to phenomenal success. I am an enthusiastic, supportive and encouraging teacher with a sense of humour, bolstered by a true passion for English Literature and Drama.

Students often describe me as friendly, hard-working and reliable and I love to help them to achieve their academic goals. I help with
rigorous academic preparation and a sharp focus on the demands of the exam syllabus, often helping tutees to jump several grades.

Teaching Experience:
I have been a successful private tutor for over ten years, as well as having taught English and Drama in some of the best schools in the country, helping to guide many students to phenomenal exam success. I have taught at Stamford High School and Oakham School - teaching all ages from key stage 3-5 and specifically including GCSE/A Level and IB. I also rigorously prepared students for university entrance at these schools, helping with personal statements, interviews and reading material. I helped many students achieve top grades, founded discussion groups, led the debating society at Stamford, coached the winning house play entry at Oakham and assisted on multiple interview panels. I also led a Shakespeare day, assisted with creative writing, organised multiple theatre trips and led specific workshops on set texts.

I cover a range of specialisms in my tuition, encompassing Shakespeare, poetry, drama texts, novels and essay-writing skills, as well as being highly skilled in exam and coursework technique and 're-teaching' Literature texts in a short space of time to students who feel their tuition has been below par.

Tutoring Approach:
I believe strongly in finding the best approach for each individual student. I don't believe in 'one size fits all' tuition and never have; we are all so gloriously unique and different! I do believe passionately in helping students to feel confident as quickly as possible and, as such, I tend to ensure that for each text, task or question, there is the opportunity for the student to quickly put into practice whatever has been taught. This might be quickly re-writing an introduction, re-ordering a thesis or perhaps simply writing a single line of analysis and quotation. Sometimes little and often is best, as English can be overwhelming for some students and they need continual practice in the art of forming articulate and well-informed sentences at every stage of an essay!

I believe in finding opportunities for the students to enjoy the texts they study, in addition to coaching them rigorously in the necessary set of analytical skills they need to write top notch essays or descriptive/narrative pieces. I enjoy assisting students at all stages of their education and have experience in teaching all key stages. In addition to preparing students thoroughly for public examinations, I have been able to help pupils explore a variety of texts and genres and discover the joy of great writing

I enjoy helping students contemplating Higher Education - having helped students look at different courses, selecting modules and advising them on their personal statements; it has been rewarding to try and help students play to their individual strengths. I have delivered several specialist seminars for University applicants and assisted in delivering intensive mock interviews, both at Stamford and Oundle School, assisted with interviews and entrance examination preparation.

I am also a professional actress and writer and have lots of experience guiding young people in the realms of theatre auditions and Drama GCSE and A Level. In addition, I hold an MA from The Royal Central School of Speech and Drama and further training at The Drama Studio in London and am also available for individual coaching for scholarships, drama school entrance and professional auditions.

I was Theatre Director-in-Residence at Kings College School in Wimbledon, directing many plays and productions, establishing a new writing group and adapting and creating Brighton Rock from an original adaptation, as well as leading the large scale community production of Macbeth. I have touring experience of my solo show and working in the industry which can be shared with students and especially help those wishing to join the profession.

I am based in Lincolnshire and, as such, I tutor all my tutees online.

Subjects

Personal Description:
I hold a Masters Degree in Software Engineering from the University of Hertfordshire and a BSc in Computing from the University of Portsmouth with a Second Class Upper. My degrees focused on Software development, Data Science, Advanced Networks, Software Engineering, Database and Web development. I have been developing web applications professionally for over 10 years.

I have successfully built and deployed several web applications in the following industries both individually and in a team; Insurance Financial services, E-commerce , Construction, News & Media . I have experience in C#, HTML, CSS, SQL, Javascript, ASP.NET MVC & Web forms, PHP, Laravel, MySQL, MongoDB, GIT, Docker and Linux Shell scripting.

Helping others grow through education is a passion that has led me to UKTutors.

Teaching Experience:
I have taught Computer Science to Secondary Students and have also worked as an IT Teaching Assistant at a College so I have got the right mix of skills and experience to enable me efficiently transfer knowledge from myself to my prospective students.

Tutoring Approach:
I believe the best way to teach is to get the student involved from day 1 and using lots of real world examples to make some of the abstract concepts in programming and computer science more understandable to students. Importantly, I love teaching others because I believe a well-taught person is an empowered person.

Subjects

Personal Description:
I have over 20 years of Management experience having worked in a range of industries and organisations.
An inspirational and visionary lecturer with a consistent record of creating innovative strategies that enable students to achieve sustained growth. A reputation for raising professional standards and introducing best practice to improve all round performance. I use a 'hands on' approach and excellent communication skills to empower individuals build lasting relationships, a strong background in delivering solutions and their associated systems and training gained from working in a wide range of levels and institutions. I have facilitated a vision for change and aligned culture and leadership and provided a vision and culture of success

Teaching Experience:
As a Higher education Lecturer I have 12 years of experience from level 3 ( Foundation Year) to level 7 ( Post graduate).
Senior Lecturer of Higher Education Courses in Business & Management
Management Trainer to local business on Business & Management courses
Lecturer for CIPD Level 3-Level 7
Lecturer for ILM (Institute of Leadership Management)
Lecturer for CMI (Chartered Management Institute)
Internal Moderator/Verifier
Coordinate and liaise with external examiners and professional awarding bodies
Responsible for application and adherence to quality standards related to curriculum activities
Lead and support colleagues in the development of courses

Tutoring Approach:
I aim to provide a solid grounding in the subject while paying close attention to the needs of the individual. An initial meeting establishes the student's needs and the direction tuition should take. We then begin work on a programme of study which focuses on filling gaps in knowledge and addressing any areas of weakness in some cases we conduct a diagnostic test .
I set regular mile stones/homework and assignments - the quantity varying with how much time the student has - and give feedback the following session.

Tuition generally runs as an independent course running parallel to and complementing what the student is doing at college or university. The programme of study is flexible enough so that we can focus on any upcoming assessments. As the exam or submission date approaches, the focus shifts towards report writing and exam techniques and looking at past papers.

I offer short-term and log term tuition when there is availability, students generally come for a good part of an academic year, often longer.
Over time, I've become convinced that private tuition works not just because of the one-to-one teaching, but because of the relationship between student and tutor. My students generally see significant improvement in their work, and sometimes their results are quite spectacular!

Subjects

Personal Description:
I see myself closer to the role of a mentor rather than a tutor, with my goal being to help students maximise their potential and achieve their set goals. These can range from academic excellence to securing a full-time job in investment banking or joining a top university.

I have studied Economics at UCL, where I graduated at the top of my class with First Class, Russian Studies at OXFORD, and Management at the Judge Business School in CAMBRIDGE (Distinction). Moreover, I hold a PhD in Economics (UCL, 2016).

As you can see in my profile, I characterise myself as an Investor, Entrepreneur, and Academic. As a university lecturer, I primarily taught Microeconomics, Macroeconomics, Econometrics, Finance, and Industrial Economics to undergraduate students and International Business and Finance to Postgraduate students. Through this work, I identified various gaps in the educational sector, and as a result, I decided to start my own tutoring company and my own educational consulting group. Yet I am still very passionate about teaching, so apart from running the companies, I have kept the role of the head tutor. At the same time, I am passionate about the world of finance, so apart from being heavily invested in the academic aspect of finance, I also have my own investment company.

Despite my various professional endeavours, I still consider myself a professional tutor. Tutoring for me is not just an additional source of income but a significant source of creativity in my life. In fact, I believe that there are strong complementarities between my two, as, through my entrepreneurial activities, I get the chance to give real-life examples to my students as well as help them understand the real world.

My students have achieved outstanding results, and I believe that I have all the necessary skills required to improve their academic performance and help them fulfil their potential. Throughout my career, I have had extensive experience with families of high-net-worth individuals, primarily from the Middle East, Eastern Europe, and the United Kingdom.

Tutoring Approach:
My approach to tutoring is tailor-made, meaning that I am always seeking to adjust to the particular needs of each student. In some sessions, especially those that are close to the exam period, I focus on developing their exam skills and go through some well-tested revision techniques.

For all sessions, the objective is to make the class as interactive as possible. I follow the "Socratic" approach to learning, whereby I guide my students towards obtaining the correct answers with a series of well-placed questions rather than providing the answers straight away. Lastly, I advocate an empirical understanding of theoretical concepts, thus frequently referencing real-world examples from my work in finance and seeking to bring theory to life through life examples, cards, games, and financial trading.

I am very patient and endeavor to build a strong working relationship with my students based on honesty and openness. I have high expectations of myself and my students, and as a result, I can be very demanding yet always committed to helping them achieve their goals. I pride myself in my RELIABILITY - meaning that I will never abandon a student before the exams or any other key commitments that he/she might have. I ensure **CONTINUOUS SUPPORT** for students, and I make myself available for questions via phone or e-mail throughout the day, outside class hours, and free of charge. I am always OPEN TO FEEDBACK from the student, and I expect an honest relationship and communication with them. To achieve this, I aim to create a strong rapport with them while patiently helping them deal with any difficulties they face.

Personal Description:
I am a highly experienced Maths Tutor, Teacher and Leader of Maths with over 20 years of experience in both Secondary and Primary settings. During my career I have successfully tutored many students one-to-one alongside teaching in schools. I am now working as a full-time tutor. I can help those for whom maths is challenging as well as those who want to achieve the highest grades.

Ask yourself this "Is maths a mystery?" Do you wish you understood the 'why' as well as the 'how'? If you ask a question, does your teacher give the same explanation again and again? It doesn't have to be that way. My methods really work; my students increase their mathematical abilities and confidence, and can explain what they're doing. Some are so excited after my lessons that they can`t wait to tell their parents all about it! Do you wish your child was so inspired by their teacher that they voluntarily did extra maths in order to improve?

If your child has had a difficult time with maths at school, or perhaps you`ve tried other tutors and been disappointed, fear not, there is a better way. Follow other parents who have noticed their children finish my lessons with a grin, and a bounce in their step, follow other students who have excitedly messaged me after exams to tell me that there was so much they actually could do!

Teaching Experience:
I have been teaching for over 18 years. In that time, I have worked in both Primary and Secondary schools and have been the Leader of Maths in both settings. I understand the demands of both the Primary and GCSE curriculums. I have excellent subject knowledge and a deep understanding of how students learn maths as this was the focus of my Masters research. This means that I can go into any tutoring lesson knowing I fully understand the concepts and can explain them effectively. I have worked with all abilities including those with Special Educational Needs. I made the decision to become a full-time tutor because tutoring is what I love! Tutoring full-time means I can put in more hours outside of lessons to prepare and communicate with students and parents to help them with any problems or questions they might have.

I offer online lessons via Zoom. I have Enhanced DBS and am registered with the update service.

Tutoring Approach:
My approach is one that is based on mathematical research and my many years of experience teaching in schools. I plan personalised learning for each tutee ensuring that they achieve their full potential. I pride myself on building excellent relationships with my tutees, and endeavour to instil in them a love of maths and a 'can-do' attitude. I liaise weekly with parents so they know how their children are progressing.

Since last year all my tutoring has taken place online. This has been highly successful with both my tutees and their parents preferring this method as it affords more flexibility and enables me to help students from across the country as well as internationally. I have worked with students from KS2 all the way through to GCSE.

My planning is completely flexible and is built around my student's progress and needs. I seek to identify common misconceptions and ensure that students have a solid foundation on which to build. I am patient and am used to explaining concepts in several different ways to find the way that works for each individual. I focus on helping students understand the 'why' not just the 'how.' Constant review is key in Maths and I build this into every lesson.

I love working with young people and am passionate about providing students with the best possible education that will benefit them throughout their adult lives. I love seeing them grow in confidence and ability as well as developing a real enjoyment of the subject. It is quite common for my students to experience a transformation in how they feel about their own abilities in maths and they frequently go on to be amongst the highest achievers in their respective cohorts.

TESTIMONIALS:

'Jackie is an outstanding tutor whose efforts helped push me to raise my GCSE maths grade from a predicted 7 to a final result of 9. Jackie always aims to create an engaging and enthusiastic environment to learn and help students advance in their studies.' Former student now studying A level maths and further maths at Sixth Form College.


'We have had the pleasure of Jackie tutoring both of our children for their GCSE maths examinations. I cannot praise Jackie enough in terms of her teaching ability and outstanding success in engaging our children in the learning experience and improving their examination results. A great deal of this success has been obtained by building the confidence of our children in maths and helping them believe that they can (and have) improved their results in this subject area. Our daughter has particularly grown in confidence in a relatively short period of time. Jackie always makes her lessons fun and engaging and both of our children have enjoyed their time with her. She clearly takes pride and pleasure in their success and I would very much recommend her services to anyone thinking of investing in maths tutoring.' Mrs B, parent in West Sussex.


'Jackie tutored both our children to help them prepare for their Year 6 SATS exams. Both of them really looked forward to their weekly lessons with Jackie as she made the lessons fun and engaging. She gave us weekly feedback on how they were progressing which I found very useful. Our daughter in particular made exceptional progress as she was really struggling with maths before going to Jackie. After a year of lessons, she had moved from the lowest group for maths in her class to the top group and told me she "loved maths now!" Both of our children achieved excellent results in their SATS exams which would not have happened had it not been for Jackie's outstanding teaching. She is very experienced and knowledgeable and I would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone thinking of employing a maths tutor for their children.' Mrs S, parent in Essex.

'Jackie taught me through my whole GCSE maths and helped so much. When I started in year 10 I just couldn't get my head around certain aspects of maths and I was failing but now I'm happy to say I managed to pass with a grade 5, which was above my target, thanks to her brilliant teaching! Thank you.' Former student now Head Boy at a Sixth Form in Surrey.

'Jackie was recommended to us as a maths tutor as she has many years of experience in teaching in Secondary School. Jackie teaches our child as an individual & at his pace. She goes out of her way go to make lessons fun and our son loves the games they play. She is very thorough with her updates to us as parents which we find very reassuring. In just four months we can see a massive improvement in our son's confidence & attitude towards his maths & the improvement in his maths tests are already starting to show. We cannot recommend Jackie highly enough.' Mr & Mrs D L-H, parents in Surrey

'We engaged Jackie on recommendation from another parent to help our son regain some confidence lost following the pandemic and the lengthy period of home schooling, which he found very hard work. Jackie is very patient and clear with him and lets him ask questions when he doesn't understand. He is brimming with confidence after three half terms and in his own words "the tuition is knocking his maths out of the park" and he feels he is easily grasping things in class now because he has covered it with Jackie. We also like to receive the weekly feedback from Jackie after each session. We will continue until he has completed his GSCE and would have no hesitation recommending Jackie to other parents.' Mrs A, parent in West Sussex

'Jackie greatly helped my daughter develop her maths skills in the lead up to her GCSE exams. My daughter initially lacked confidence in her abilities but with Jackie's excellent, inspirational teaching and supportive approach, was able to sit her maths papers feeling well-prepared. It was wonderful to see how my daughter flourished from having the maths sessions and I would have no hesitation in recommending Jackie to others.' Mrs K, parent in Surrey

'I have really enjoyed my lessons with Jackie. She has helped me so much with my maths and I now feel much more confident with the GCSE topics. Jackie is always encouraging. She is a great teacher and has made me feel I really can achieve success. I would definitely recommend her tutoring.' Former Year 11 student at school in Surrey

My background includes working with diverse individuals to help them overcome personal challenges, build confidence, and achieve their goals. In my role as an alternative education tutor, I specialise in Functional Skills English and ICT, focusing on students who thrive outside traditional learning environments. My extensive experience in coaching and therapy allows me to integrate therapeutic techniques into my teaching, providing a unique, holistic approach that supports both academic success and personal growth.

Tutoring Approach:
My approach to tutoring is deeply personalised and student-centered. I integrate therapeutic techniques to help reduce anxiety and build confidence, ensuring that each session is tailored to meet the unique needs of the learner. I focus on creating a supportive environment where students can grow academically and personally.
