About Me

Engaging and organised tutor with current experience as an A Level Geography teacher and examiner. I have 13 years teaching experience at key stages three, four and five. I have been an examiner for 6 years.

My tutoring approach is to focus on improving exam technique and understand difficult content, to gain higher grades. This includes:

- Deconstructing command words
- Analysing model answers
- Marking student work and suggesting improvements
- Co-planning essays with the student
- Using a variety of techniques (quizzing, modelling, diagrams) to break down difficult content

Topic Expertise

I have taught Edexcel, AQA and OCR examination boards and currently teach Edexcel A Level. I examine papers 2 and 3 in the Edexcel A Level Geography course.
I have experience covering topics ranging from Carbon and Energy to Geopolitics.
A key strength of mine is my ability to help students apply their knowledge to an exam question. Using my experience as a teacher for 13 years and an examiner for 6 years, I can help students with their exam technique, so they are applying their knowledge in the right way.
