Personal Description:
Hello there, my name is Tony, an accounting tutor. Here's the secret...

Most students imagine accounting to be a subject riddled with daunting calculations and demanding a higher form of intelligence. This is not so. In my years of teaching students, I have discovered that most students fail because they study the wrong thing. Look at it this way. To understand the working of a balance sheet [statement of financial position] most students memorise the order in which elements are applied. This is the cardinal sin.

To be a successful student you must understand why we need a balance sheet and what information users of this particular financial statement are looking for. When you look at it from a user perspective [understanding who those users are and what they want] your mind no longer tries to remember what was after what but your mind starts to actually determine what needs to be there to satisfy the users questions regarding a companies affairs.

This way you can forget the specific format but you can always recreate it because you actually understand what is going on and why it is going on. Give me a call, I'll help you see the better side of accounting.

Teaching Experience:
I have 10 years of tutoring students in the UK. I am passionate about what I do and I enjoy helping students.

For online students, I promise you an experience you never thought was possible. You will be able to see my white board/note pad on your computer screen. Every stroke or letter I write will appear on your screen instantly. It will be like we are in the same room. Please give it a try and if you do not like it I will give you a full refund.

Tutoring Approach:
I focus mainly on two aspects; Understanding of the subject and Examination techniques. To achieve this I encourage one to one tutoring although in rare cases I accept groups.

Subjects

Personal Description:
Hi I'm Niall, a chartered accountant with an Economics degree from The University of Reading. I was twice awarded silver at the UK Maths Challenge and achieved grade A at both A-level and GCSE.

My passion to teach started when I volunteered in a secondary school while at university, then volunteered abroad after. I then provided private tuition for several years at GCSE and A-level mostly for maths, helping improve children's grades.

Teaching Experience:
Taught Maths to students aged 11-18 at a secondary school whilst in my second year at university.
Taught Maths and English to students in Turkey at a primary school and secondary school.
Several years private tuition experience for maths, science and German at GCSE and A-level.

Tutoring Approach:
Studying and revising shouldn't be a chore and I believe I can bring to life my subjects. Everyone learns differently and there are many methods to ensure the student is on the right learning curve.

Personal Description:
DO YOU NEED A TUTOR FOR EXAMS/RE-SIT EXAMS THIS YEAR? LOOK NO FURTHER!


GRADE 1 OUTSTANDING - OFSTED (from 2002 to 2024!)
I have been the Head of Accounting since 2006, at a large Catholic Sixth Form College in Hulme, Manchester. I am 46 years old, living in Didsbury, South Manchester. I gained my degree in Economics and Finance in 1998 from Leicester University. I began teaching in 2002 so have many years of experience teaching Accounting.

I mainly offer tuition at my home, or a local library, either at the weekend, or weekday evenings. However, I am usually able to offer tuition during the school/college holidays.

Teaching Experience:
I completed my PGCE at Manchester University in 2002. I only teach Accounting AS and A2 Level, and this is therefore my main specialism. I can also help students in need of tutoring on the Finance elements of the Business Studies A Level, or on Accounting/Finance elements of Business/Accounting/Finance degree courses.

I teach the AQA specification.

Many tutors are not willing to advertise the results they have achieved with students. I recommend you read the section below on the results i have achieved with my A Level Accounting students.

Also, many tutors seem to offer tuition in a wide variety of subjects. Are they really specialists in so many different subjects? I am an Accounting specialist, and only offer tuition in Accounting or the Finance elements of a Business course. If you need a Maths tutor, then hire a Maths specialist. If you need an Accounting tutor, then hire me!

Tutoring Approach:
Many other tutors seem to describe their strategies/relationships etc, without mentioning anything concrete like exam results! Surely the one thing a prospective student wants to know about is exam results!?!? Read on.

I have an incredibly strong track record of results at A Level Accounting. Compare the results of my students against the national benchmarks below. Please compare the difference between my students, and the benchmarks. We are WAY ahead!


My A Level Accounting students in 2022:

Grade A*-B = 79%

Benchmark A2 Accounting 2022:

Grade A*-B = 43%


Each department within the college is graded according to the college's own internal validation procedure. I have been graded as 1 'OUTSTANDING' for 17 years on the row, since I became head of the department!!!

The Accounting department was also graded as 1 'OUTSTANDING' in the last OFSTED report in Jan 2023. Key Findings from Ofsted:

"A high proportion of students achieve grades A and B. In A-Level Accounting more than two thirds of students gained a high grade (A-B). In AS Accounting, almost four times the national average achieved a high grade (A-B)."


I have been awarded grade 1 on the ALPS measure for value added on 3 separate occasions in recent years. This means i add more value to my students than any other college in the country. Value added measures the difference between what the Government predicts a student should achieve at A Level based on their GCSE performance and what they actually achieve.

Here are the previous years results, so you can see that the performance is ALWAYS impressive, and WAY ABOVE benchmark.

Personal Description:
I am a qualified teacher (PGCE) and for the past 25 years I have taught 'A' level Accounting to international students at an independent school in the UK. I have an excellent track record of results where most of my students have achieved A*/A/B grades.

Teaching Experience:
In my previous school, I was head of Accounting for sixteen years. We were listed in The Good Schools Guide for the best results in A level Accounting achieved by girls. More recently I have been teaching many students online. I am very familiar with the AQA exam board, where I have attended Inset training days so I am very up to date with the changes on the specification.

Tutoring Approach:
I enjoy tutoring students that struggle with the subject and providing them with academic support. I remember one student who said I can't do Accounting after failing an internal exam, and it was clear his confidence in the subject was at rock bottom. After giving him 1:1 tutoring, I was able to apply different teaching strategies to simplify and explain the concepts in such a way that the student could understand, giving him lots of practice on exam styled questions to build his confidence. This student went on to study Accounting and Finance at university. This is just one of many students that have gone on to top universities like Warwick, LSE, Bristol and Nottingham. My lessons are very interactive and I think it is extremely important to keep checking that the student understands so I will always check learning as we progress with tasks to complete. However, in order for students to progress in Accounting it is crucial they follow my instructions and guidance and that will include reviewing the lesson material during the week in between lessons, this is crucial so that they retain the information taught.

Personal Description:
Hello! I am a highly qualified Chartered Tax Adviser (CTA), and I hold several prestigious qualifications including ADIT, ACCA, BSc, and MBA. I teach CTA, ACA, ACCA, ADIT students, and university graduates studying accounting and finance.

Currently, I work as a Chartered Tax Adviser with one of the Big 4 firms in London, specializing in providing Corporate Tax advisory services to multinational enterprises (MNEs). My role in the firm involves offering expert guidance to global organizations on complex tax matters, ensuring compliance and optimizing tax strategies within various jurisdictions.

With over two decades of experience in the field of tax advisory, I have developed an in-depth understanding of both practical and theoretical aspects of taxation, which I have successfully applied to help numerous international clients. However, alongside my professional work, my true passion lies in teaching. Over the last 20 years, I have had the privilege of helping countless students understand complex subjects, guiding them toward academic and professional success.

Teaching has always been a fulfilling and rewarding endeavor for me. Over the years, I have developed a deep understanding of the challenges students face while mastering difficult subjects, and I always aim to make learning more approachable, engaging, and meaningful. Whether you are looking to improve your knowledge of tax matters or advance your professional credentials, I am here to guide you through every step of the learning process.

I believe that education is not just about imparting knowledge; it's about igniting curiosity and fostering a deeper understanding. My goal is to make every lesson interactive, insightful, and most importantly, enjoyable. I take great pride in seeing my students gain confidence and excel in their studies.

Teaching Experience:
With a teaching career spanning over 20 years, I have had the privilege of working with a wide range of students, from those studying for professional qualifications to individuals simply looking to enhance their understanding of tax and business-related subjects. Over these two decades, I have refined my teaching techniques and developed a tailored approach for each student based on their unique needs and learning styles.

My professional qualifications, including CTA, ADIT, ACCA, BSc, and MBA, have provided me with a broad and diverse knowledge base, allowing me to teach a wide array of subjects. I have taught students pursuing Chartered Tax Adviser exams, ACCA qualifications, and undergraduate and MBA programs. Additionally, I have worked with professionals who wish to upskill or stay current in the rapidly evolving world of corporate tax.

Throughout my career, I have taught both one-to-one and group classes in various formats. I believe that understanding the material is crucial for long-term success, so I ensure that my lessons are not just about passing exams, but about developing a comprehensive understanding of the subject matter. My students consistently praise my ability to simplify complex topics and make them accessible.

I have also developed strong relationships with my students, many of whom return for further tutoring, knowing that my approach will provide them with the support and guidance they need to achieve their academic or professional goals. I find it incredibly rewarding to witness my students' progress, both in terms of their academic achievements and their newfound confidence.

Tutoring Approach:
My teaching philosophy is centered on creating a dynamic and engaging learning environment, where students feel both challenged and supported. I have always believed that effective learning doesn't require PowerPoint slides or complex visual aids. Instead, I rely on a more hands-on approach, using a touch-screen whiteboard to deliver lessons. This method allows for greater flexibility in explaining difficult concepts, drawing diagrams, and breaking down complex ideas in real-time. It's more akin to a traditional classroom setting, which I find enhances student engagement and fosters a more interactive learning experience.

I teach exclusively through a virtual classroom, which allows me to connect with students from anywhere in the world. Whether it's one-on-one tutoring or group sessions, I use cutting-edge technology to facilitate an immersive and seamless learning experience. I conduct my sessions on a Microsoft Book 2 laptop, ensuring high-quality, lag-free video calls and smooth sharing of notes, diagrams, and resources.

For my lessons, I use Skype, a reliable video conferencing platform that enables real-time communication and collaboration. If you're new to Skype, don't worry-it's free to install and easy to use. Through Skype, we can interact live, share screens, and discuss concepts just as we would in a physical classroom. Whether you are in the comfort of your home or on the go, you can access our lessons anytime, anywhere.

One of the key features of my sessions is that all notes and key takeaways from each lesson are recorded and shared with you afterward (upond request). This means that you can revisit any of the concepts we covered and have the materials for future reference, making learning even more flexible and convenient.

Moreover, I understand that everyone has a different pace and schedule, so I offer flexibility in terms of the time and date of the sessions. We can mutually negotiate a schedule that works best for both of us, ensuring that you can integrate your tutoring into your personal and professional commitments.

In summary, my teaching approach is student-centered, interactive, and highly flexible. I focus on understanding the subject deeply, making the material relatable, and providing continuous support to my students. Together, we'll work toward your success, building both your knowledge and your confidence in the subject.
