Okehampton Accounting Tutors and Okehampton Accounting Tuition

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.

I have equally provided training courses on programming (to name a few: Visual Basic, Oracle SQL and PL/SQL, etc..) for at least 8 years.

Tutoring Approach:
Every new batch of tuition starts with getting to know more about the students. It is at the same time important to give the students enough space to familiarise themselves with me. A discussion will then follow to scope down what will be covered in the syllabus. A work plan is also devised with the aim to complete the syllabus well before the examinations, so as to have adequate time for revision. The following steps outline the process of each tuition session:
1. Initiate the subject or topic based on discussion of a real life example / scenario
2. Introduce the theoretical part of the subject or topic
3. Explain how the theory links to the real life example / scenario
4. Work out and explain some examples
5. Immediate evaluation of student's understanding through questions and answers
6. Repeat steps 4 and 5 until satisfactory response of the student (steps 1, 2 and 3 may also be repeated if required)
7. Give homework and a brief discussion on what will be covered in the next tuition session

Note: Each tuition session starts with the correction of the previous session's homework and explanation of any problem areas, including a summing up of what was covered in the previous tuition session.

Personal Description:
Hi i'm Ayushi I'm a university student. I've always had a strong desire to support people in their academic endeavours.

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.

Let me quote an example:

I was coaching a CIMA student and it was her last chance to pass that exam. I noticed that knowledge of the subject was not an issue.

I just fine tuned her concepts and gave her confidence.

I only delivered three sessions and she passed her exam.

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.
