About Me
As a professional independent school teacher, I bring a wealth of experience across a diverse range of subjects. With a strong background in History, Politics, and International Relations, I provide tailored instruction to my students, drawing from my extensive engagement with various exam boards and academic research. I am a current A Level examiner with insight into how to prepare students to excel in public exams. I have tutored students from all exam boards (Edexcel, Cambridge International, AQA, OCR, at GCSE, iGCSE, A Level; IB at HL SL MYP) and all over the world. Furthermore, I offer UCAS & Oxbridge mentorship to students navigating university admissions. I provide guidance on interview techniques and help refine personal statements to showcase each student's strengths. Additionally, I coach KS2 students for 11+ entrance examinations, covering verbal and non-verbal reasoning, drawing from my experience serving on admission panels to ensure they are well-prepared.

I also adapt my teaching methods to suit individual learning styles, ensuring each student has ample opportunities for practice and feedback to master the language. I have extensive experience working with students with Special Education Needs (ADHD, ASD, dyslexia etc), with tailored resources to help them succeed. My lessons are designed to be engaging and interactive, incorporating multimedia resources and real-life scenarios to facilitate knowledge acquisition and retention.
