The stats: delivering success and results

I attended a high-performing girls grammar school and understand the need to attain academic success. I have a 2:1 BA (Hons) in History and Politics and therefore understand the work required to pass the necessary exams and attend the university of your dreams, which is something I encourage students to push towards.

My lesson materials are my own, created and developed over five years of online teaching. I pride myself on offering quality resources alongside these lesson plans, and ensure that students have access to high-quality revision resources, textbook pages and additional resources alongside the basic lesson materials (such as examples for Politics and comprehensive case study notes for Geography). Many of these resources helped me attain A*AA personally, highlighting their success. Many reviews mention the helpful nature of these resources - my students will never have to rely on the textbook alone. 

I have worked with over 140 students across six years of teaching which has given me the opportunity to understand different learning styles, adapt to each student's needs, and deliver tuition that works for students. I build lasting relationships with students that allow them to flourish in our sessions; improving student confidence is a key priority for me, and I make every effort to be approachable, friendly, helpful and motivating. As a younger tutor, I feel that this can benefit me and my students greatly, as I feel that I can relate to students more easily and foster a positive working relationship as a result. I also benefit from enhanced understanding of the mark schemes due to my recent experience in sitting the exams.

As I specialise in tuition at A Level, my sessions are targeted towards results. Many students have attained grade A-A* across all of their subjects, and this is something I work towards through specialised focus on essay technique, revision support and comprehensive content coverage throughout the year to push each and every student to attain their academic best.

Whilst tutoring, I have supported numerous SEN students, improving my ability to teach a wider range of students and building my people skills. I have also undertaken professional development opportunities to better my abilities. 

Studies show that students receiving private or small-group tuition improve their grades faster. Students can also benefit from higher rates of engagement and participation within smaller group or individual settings, which can allow for higher productivity levels in understanding content and applying it, alongside other positives such as enhanced student confidence.
