Teaching Experience
I am a professional qualified part time teacher as well as online French teacher, currently based in Tonbridge Kent . I hold a BA from the University of Canterbury, and a Celta., with my Mindfulness and Breath-work qualification. Teaching is my full-time profession as well as teaching Breath-work and mindfulness because it is what I truly enjoy, and my students appreciate learning in a structured, motivating, and supportive environment.
I have over 30 years of experience teaching French for a wide range of specific objectives, including:
• Home-schooled students
• Scholarship preparation for prestigious independent schools.
• All major UK French exams: 11-plus, Common Entrance, GCSE, AS-level, A-level, Pre-U, IGCSE, IB, CNED
• All UK exam boards: AQA, OCR, Edexcel, CIE, WJEC
• US high-school French exams such as AP
• Preparation for official certifications: DELF, DALF, TCF, TEF-including for French citizenship
• Regular conversation classes for learners wishing to maintain or refresh their French, including frequent travelers
In addition to exam preparation, I regularly design long-term, tailored learning programmes for home-schooled students, adult learners, and younger children. My approach is very personalised, structured, and adaptable, ensuring that every student progresses with confidence and clarity, so you will be able to appreciate your progress.
Teaching Experience:
I worked in Chiddingstone , Horsmonden, Pembury, Fosse Bank, as well as Adult Education in Tonbridge,
Tonbridge Girls Grammar and Wrotham Secondary School. I was also for 3 years a Modern Foreign Language coordinator in Tunbridge Wells supporting 8 primary schools to implement languages. I am a qualified teacher and in my teaching career I was able to cater for the needs of primary secondary and adults students, covering the basic language, from common entrance, GCSE, A-level, IB, to adults. I enjoy teaching all of those levels because it has allowed me to bring lots of creativity to all the level and create a wide range of resources that can be adapted to all my students.I have been working in Rochester independent college for 13 years now, and I also teach Breath-work and Mindfulness.
Tutoring Approach:
All my experience has allowed me to be very creative in my teaching. Integrating ICT, books, worksheets, power points, videos, and interactive games to insure a broad variety of teaching methods are implemented. I always ensure that all skills are covered.
I will provide my students with a medium term planning, and personalise learning experience.
We can discuss your needs, and I will be able to assess your requirements, whether you are an auditory

Personal Description:
Specialist in intensive Psychology, Anthropology & Sociology tuition, revision and exam preparation/technique for A-level, undergraduate and post-graduate students.
Teaching Experience:
A-level Psychology & Sociology
I have taught A-level for more than 20 years and am an examiner for a number of boards.
Many of my tutees have gone on to score 100% in units and after a comparatively short period of time improved their predicted grade/previous A-level score by several grades.
Undergraduate & post-graduate Anthropology, Psychology & Sociology
I have worked with students across these three subjects from most Russell Group universities providing general support through the course and/or assistance with specific assignments.
I hold a BSc in Anthropology from UCL and a PGCE from the Institute of Education, London.
Tutoring Approach:
A-level Psychology & Sociology.
As a specialist in exam-focused, intensive tuition, I provide tutees with full, clear, concise class notes and revision materials specifically aimed at ensuring that they understand exactly what is required in answers, how to address exam board assessment criteria, how to structure essays, how to manage time in exams, how to structure and manage revision, and strategies and tactics to maximise success. I can provide tutees with a huge bank of past paper questions and full model answers to accompany these questions.
Homework will be provided to tutees and marked as it would be by official examiners in live exams - thus, strengths and weaknesses can be addressed. A lot of assignments/homework will be set for tutees to complete between sessions.
I am an engaging, approachable tutor who enjoys teaching and makes learning interesting, rewarding and enjoyable. However, I will make demands on tutees in line with their aspirations and be entirely honest with parents and tutees about progress.
Undergraduate & post-graduate Anthropology, Psychology & Sociology
I can provide expert help in decoding question requirements, breaking essays and dissertations down into manageable chunks, and planning and structuring work in-line with module reading lists and marking criteria.
Recent testimonials state:
"Incredible tutor! Helped me achieve an A* in Psychology A-level while also helping me with my university application and personal statement. Makes really helpful and concise notes which allowed me to achieve top grades in the A level without having to write a huge amount in essays. Thank you so much Jeremy"
"Our daughter received a C in her Sociology mock in February and with the help of Jeremy she has just achieved an A* in her A level exam. Jeremy was supportive and followed the direction of her strengths and weaknesses, supplying detailed notes each week on her chosen topic, and giving specific feedback and a graded mark on each assigned practice question completed. Jeremy made sure each possible area was covered prior to the exam."
"Jeremy has been a godsend! He has helped my daughter through her Anthropology degree, which is a difficult subject. He is kind, thoughtful, hard-working, straight talking, reliable, understands the remit and supports through difficult times.
She was awarded a first.
Thank you, Jeremy."
"Jeremy has made work that I initially found rather complex very easy to understand. He structured what I needed to do so well that I started to wonder why I was even worried in the first place. He has been unbelievably helpful with both Psychology and Anthropology."

Personal Description:
I am happy to offer you English, French, Spanish and Russian lessons tailored to your needs.
I am a qualified teacher with 13 years` experience in Moscow, Paris and London.
I graduated from Moscow Pedagogical State University and Pushkin Institute. I hold a Master of Education (distinction). Additionally, I passed the CELTA in Paris and acquired a further DELTA qualification.
I am bilingual in English and Russian and fluent in French and Spanish, so I have always been a part of improving children's cognitive development and helped navigate three different worlds as a majority of my students have been more or less exposed to two or three cultures simultaneously.
I am a well-organised strong classroom performer who is able to effectively communicate with students from diverse backgrounds, varying degrees of ability and ages. Teaching groups and one to one teaching is equally rewarding. However, this is the latter one that gives you an amazing possibility to tailor the session towards the needs, level and capability of a student.
By using my enthusiasm felt by learners and readiness to experiment, I can maintain a positive climate where students can reach their full potential.
As an inspirational teacher with high personal standards, I am committed to the learning and development of my students. I have high expectations of both myself and my students, and show an interest in every student as an individual.
I feel that my greatest strengths are my ability to inspire love of languages in students, to motivate them in developing a lifelong enthusiasm for learning.
I work with students of different levels (Beginner, Elementary, Pre-intermediate, Intermediate, Upper-Intermediate, Advanced) and age groups (preschool children, schoolchildren, students, adults).
I also prepare students for Cambridge (Starters, Movers, Flyers, KET, PET, FCE, IELTS/TOEFL)

TOEFL,

Personal Description:
I am a PhD student at the University of Manchester researching materials for applications to nuclear fusion. I am deeply passionate about my subject, although I understand that it's not everyone's cup of tea! I try my hardest to help my students increase their confidence, enjoyment of the subject and, of course, their grades.
Teaching Experience:
I have been an online tutor since October 2019 and have seen some of my students make 3 grades progress in 3 months. I have worked with a variety of exam boards including international qualifications.
Tutoring Approach:
I try to keep my sessions relatively relaxed as I strongly believe that the best way to learn is when you feel most comfortable. As a fellow student, I can relate to my students and offer them some advice about their studies outside of the classroom. I leave the content of my sessions up to the student to decide, but a typical session would feature a discussion of the content followed by applying the relevant skills through exam practice.

Over the years, I have developed a deep understanding of the subject and a passion for helping students achieve their academic potential.
In addition to my teaching experience, I have been a private tutor for several years, working with students of all levels to improve their understanding of Chemistry and achieve their desired grades.

Qualified Art teacher, ex Head of Art and practicing artist, writer and illustrator. Supportive, friendly, encouraging approach balanced by a rigorous and thorough commitment to helping you achieve your best and meet your objectives, whether they are GCSE/A Level requirements or your own personal goals.
Do you need an Art Tutor to get you through your GCSE or A Level coursework and exams? Or are you a beginner who wants to learn to draw and paint? Perhaps you need someone to help boost your confidence, or would like a mentor who can support you to develop your skills and ideas?
I`m a former Head of Art Department with over ten years teaching experience in a large comprehensive school, who has now worked for over ten years with two of the major UK exam boards as a GCSE Art moderator. I have a first class degree in both Art and English, and an MA (distinction) in illustration. I also work as a tutor for adult learners at The Royal West Academy in Bristol and offer workshops to communities around South Glos.
I can offer:
Private tuition to help you or your child improve their GCSE and A Level coursework, and raise their grade.
Help developing a portfolio for Art college and university applications and interviews.
Support with your child's primary, KS3, GCSE and A level Art coursework.
Fun, stimulating Private Art Classes after school or at weekends for individuals or small groups of children or adults, for enjoyment and personal & creative development. At your home or mine.
I can teach watercolour, acrylics and oils, all forms of painting and drawing, along with mixed media, printmaking, batik and textiles, craft and 3D design, graphics, illustration, ceramics and more.
About me:
In 2014 I completed an MA in "Authorial Illustration" (with Distinction) at the University of Falmouth. Prior to that I worked as Head of Art at Didcot Girls` School in Oxfordshire for 9 years, before moving South towards Bristol where I began working as a tutor at the Royal West Academy in Bristol amongst other things. I have now just moved West to the Stroud area and am looking for new students and opportunities to share my passion for painting and all things creative. I have an up to date criminal record (DBS) check and I work as a GCSE Art exam moderator every summer so I`m very familiar with the latest requirements from the exam boards and course curricula. I am also an artist, selling paintings locally through various galleries, a writer and the illustrator of several published books. I`m the author of two books: `Soul Color, a ten week course on watercolour painting to cultivate creativity and mindfulness`, and `Earth Color, an eight week art course for nature connection`. Both are published by Liminal 11 in the UK and Sterling/un ion Square & Co. in the USA & Canada. I have a First Class degree in English and Fine Art from Exeter University.
I look forward to working with you and can be flexible about how, when and where we work together, according to your needs. I have a car and can travel to you if you are in the Nailsworth/Stroud area, or you can come to me. I may also be able to meet you in Bristol on certain days.
Below you can find some testimonials from former tutees.
Good luck with your search,
Emma
Testimonials:
Emma has been my art tutor for the past year. During this time she has nurtured my fragile confidence and enabled it to evolve into my own artistic voice, allowing me to find my full expression whilst also helping me to stay grounded in basic technique and method. Throughout this time she has been patient, kind and encouraging. She has overseen my transition from drawing to working with colour/paints and clearly has a great depth of experience and knowledge in the use of both. Emma has challenged me where I`ve needed it but has always remained supportive when I found myself frustrated with my own abilities. She has been very helpful in developing my sense of experimentation whilst at the same time continually suggesting other artists that I might learn from. Emma has always been happy to answer my constant questions and we have had many inspiring discussions about art, artists and the artistic process. At the end of the year i felt i had enough confidence to apply for a BA in Art, much of this attributable to Emma`s support. I would therefore highly recommend her as a private tutor.
Mr. Andrew Moon, Falmouth (adult learner)
I really enjoyed learning from Emma. She is gentle and patient in her teaching approach and very encouraging. She taught me important foundation principles and techniques which helped me develop my skills and enabled me to better address some of the technical elements of painting and drawing. She has a wonderful way of working and relating to colour which I found really inspiring. She has also helped me feel more confident in my own work and creativity. I would highly recommend her as a teacher.
Charlotte Johnstone, Totnes (adult learner)
Emma has been tutoring my 11 year old daughter for a little while now. She has a lovely gentle manner and is clearly a very talented artist herself. My daughter regularly asks me when she will have another lesson with Emma, which can only be testament to what a great teacher she is!

Personal Description:
My name is Jo and I live in Balloch.
.I have 37 years of dedicated service in education, I recently retired after a fulfilling career focused on enhancing children's learning. For 15 years, I served as a Principal Teacher in a large, diverse school in Glasgow's West End, where I led teams and supported whole-school improvement. As Literacy Leader of Learning for 6 years, I championed innovative approaches to reading and writing across the curriculum.
Teaching Experience:
For the past six years, my role has been Challenge Leader of Learning/Principal Teacher in a large school in the West End of Glasgow. Through the Literacy for All CPD training and guidance courses that I have attended, my remit has been to improve reading, writing , talking and listening as part of the Scottish Attainment Challenge with the focus on giving all children the same opportunity to succeed, with a particular focus on closing the poverty related attainment gap and promote equity for all. This year due to Covid 19 I have had to develop my digital literacy skills in order to home school through Google Classroom, Seesaw and Teams. • A member of the Senior Management team within a large school, collaborating on improving all areas of the curriculum using HGIOS4. SIP, Standards and Quality Report, Education Perspective Report and shared vision, values and aims with colleagues. • I am committed to the inclusion of all children and developing the potential in all children by removing barriers to learning, families and staff. I evidence this by collecting quantitative data, people's views and direct observation. • To cultivate an environment of professional engagement, dialogue and collegiate working. Moderating reading, writing and assessment of pupil's skills. • Leading a PEF team of two highly experienced teachers to track and target individual children's progress through formative and summative approaches (I plan reading, writing lessons through experiences and outcomes that specifically meet the children's learning needs.) • Work collaboratively/team teach with colleagues at all stages to implement literacy circles, reciprocal teaching and stem a story. • Plan and deliver CPD opportunities for teachers on Early Learning, Scotland Reads, Reciprocal Teaching, STEM a story, Word Aware and Routes Through Writing. • Developed my own Busy Little Fingers writing skills programme and implemented across early stages. • Plan training days for Support for Learner Workers that give them strategies and skills to improve children's learning. • Update staff on Glasgow Improvement Challenge on in-service days and school business meeting. keep them informed of recent
Tutoring Approach:
I offer flexible tutoring options to suit your family's needs - online lessons, sessions at my home, or in the comfort of your child's home.
My approach is centred around engaging each child by connecting learning to topics they genuinely enjoy. I believe that sparking curiosity and making learning relevant can inspire even the most hesitant learners, helping them grow in confidence and develop a love for learning.

Personal Description:
I am a qualified native teacher of French and Spanish with UK QTS (qualified teacher status). My PGCE has enabled me to work in various secondary schools and colleges in England.
I have a life long interest in linguistics and studied this in depth as part of my English and Spanish degree at the university of Poitiers, as well as the Diploma in Translation.
I am often told that am kind and patient- I do believe these are necessary qualities as a tutor to create a trusting relationship with a young person.
I take pride in my work and have excellent relationships with parents and students alike. I offer flexibility whenever possible and respond quickly to messages. 24 hour notice of cancellation required.
Teaching Experience:
I am a fully qualified secondary school teacher (PGCE) with over 15 years' experience teaching French and Spanish in the UK, including extensive GCSE and A-Level preparation (including external candidates).
I specialise in helping students:
• Achieve top grades (GCSE / IGCSE & A-Level / IB)
• Develop confident, fluent speaking skills
• Master grammar and high-level writing
Examiner-level understanding of exam requirements (AQA/ Edexcel/ CIE/13+)
Structured, personalised lessons
I also teach adults French and Spanish and develop their love for the language without the pressure of exam sitting.
I attend regular training for various exam board: AQA/ Edexcel/ CIE (IGCSE / GCSE/ IB) and A level) and 13+ Common Entrance.
Tutoring Approach:
During my lessons, I focus on speaking in order to quickly improve Listening and Oral skills.. Initial assessment will highlight the student's strong and weak areas which I incorporate into my planning.
Progress will happen quickly as I know how to apply recognized teaching methods.
I have a particular interest in grammar and ensure that clear explanations are followed by independent practice.
I believe that learning needs to be achievable in order to increase confidence, this is especially true at the beginning of the tuition when I try to pitch the activities at the right level, before extending the student's further. .
I use zoom for online teaching, which enables me to share my screen, including for the purpose of watching videos or listening to extracts. After the lesson, I send the main exercise(s) completed by the student alongside useful annotations, which can be kept for future revision (screen images).
This is accompanied by a personalised report after each class including homework to consolidate any weak area highlighted during the lesson. This is very much appreciated by parents and students, creating a thread between lessons.
I also have extensive experience of preparing students as external candidates, please contact me to discuss this option, I am committed to the success of my students.
I consistently achieve As and A stars for my students by building up their confidence and interest in the subject.
I have so many tips to pass on to impress examiners!

Personal Description:
My name is Zoe, I'm a student at Magdalen College, University of Oxford. I am a final year law student reading for BA Jurisprudence. I tutor students to help them reach their goals of studying law at Oxbridge or Russell Group. I can help with LNAT practice, interviews, and personal statements. I also offer tuition for grammar school admission tests (11+ exam). I attended a grammar school and have tutored two successful candidates who passed the test with high marks and were accepted into their first choice grammar schools.
I am aiming to become a barrister and anything I earn will be used to support this goal :)
Teaching Experience:
I have been teaching for five years. I teach leadership and life skills for the Sea Cadets to students aged 9-17. I have delivered LNAT sessions for sixth form students at Magdalen and delivered many outreach classes. I have tutored two successful candidates who passed the test with high marks and were accepted into their first choice grammar schools.
I am an experienced speaker and I have won several Oxford-wide mooting (mock court) tournaments.
Tutoring Approach:
I think that confidence is the most important thing for a young applicant. I aim to strengthen confidence by improving performance in all the application areas. I can deliver sessions in a tutorial-style, inspired by my experience during two years studying in Oxford. I can also give students homework to guide their self-study and increase learning efficiency if this is desired.
For younger tutees I also focus on confidence and timing for the 11+ exam. I will provide age-appropriate sessions which adapt to the child.
