Philip's profile picture

Information About Philip:


Personal Description:

I am a family man with three daughters.I try hard in all I do and have progressed through state schools to gain a teaching certificate (based on three years of training with assessment of teaching ability),an honours degree in maths and science,a diploma in health education,and an M.Phil. based on field work in educational techniques.For my hobby,I play tennis and National Service.
Besides face to face tutoring,I also do postal tuition.As an honours graduate of the Open University I know this can be effective.I find the initial requirements by telephone then send a worksheet by post.When the student returns this I mark with full comment and send back with a full work out of each question.Some questions are designed by me and some are from previous papers.In my view this method is better than online as there is more time for reflection.I charge just £22 for postal tuition and will tutor students from anywhere in Great Britain or abroad



Teaching Experience:

I h ave taught in grammar schools,secondary modern and comprehensive. I have also lectured as a visiting lecturer on educational methods at Leeds University,based on my M.Phil.research.I do not have any experience in primary schools.I have 20 years of tutoring experience.



Tutoring Approach:

I first try to find the needs of the student.I prepare meticulously and review every lesson.I try to install an enthusiasm for the subject.
