Susan - Morpeth tutor
Information About Susan:
Personal Description:
I am nearly sixty years of age. I have retired early due to ill health. I enjoy private tuition and find it rewarding to follow through with a pupil. Until four years ago, I tutored on a regular basis and became friends with many of the families, being recommended to others. I had to stop doing it when I took on my last position as I found I couldn't continue to make the time for both. I have a grown up family and grandchildren as well. I am not yet ready to retire from work properly and would welcome the chance to teach again.
Teaching Experience:
My last post was teaching KS3 Maths and History at a PRU. A very demanding job!
Before that, I worked as a supply teacher and private tutor since qualifying as a Special Needs Lecturer in 1995.
Tutoring Approach:
When teaching KS1 & 2, I usually find that pupils have, for various reasons, missed a chunk of the curriculum. I start by finding out what is known and then producing a plan which is discussed with both parents and pupil and agreed upon. I set a reasonable amount of homework as this lets the pupil and parents express a commitment.
When prepping for exams. I use old papers and give the pupil a good taste of what to expect. I encourage all the way. I set mock exams which are timed to give confidence.
