Anne-Marie's profile picture

Information About Anne-Marie:


Personal Description:

I have been told I am patient, encouraging, kind, supportive, firm, fair, dedicated, committed, enthusiastic, energetic and organised.I see myself as hard working and passionate about my subject. I'm also practical and my years of teaching have taught me that each learner is an individual and I love finding ways of helping students to grasp the workings of the English language.



Teaching Experience:

I have a wealth of experience working with all ages, from 10 to adult. I have been lucky enough to work in secondary schools, sixth form colleges, an international school and on a one to one basis. I have taught KS3 English, GCSE, IB, A level and first year degree literature, as well as evening adult classes and EAL in the UK, Prague and China. I have also worked for the University of Durham.
This experience has taught me so much about teaching and learning. I was a student myself only two years ago so I do know and understand the pressures and difficulties involved in learning. I also appreciate the benefits of feeling confident with aspects of learning.



Tutoring Approach:

My approach to tutoring is student-centred ensuring any formal exam requirements are met.
I use a variety of activities and strategies within the session to keep the student interested and motivated.
Each session builds on the last, checking and consolidating previous learning to ensure a solid foundation upon which to extend and develop the learner's knowledge and understanding.
I have a fun but productive approach ensuring all learners make progress in an encouraging and supportive atmosphere.
