I am an enthusiastic and passionate geography lover with over 4 years of teaching experience and 2 years of curriculum management and design. I have a 1st degree in Physical Geography and a Merit in International Disaster Management at Masters level, along with a Merit in PGCE.
Outstanding knowledge in both the human and physical sides of geography, with my main passion being within the geohazards, glaciers, weather, and river/coastal topics. I can also aid with essays, NEAs and exam techniques from GCSE to degree level.
Second in Humanities and Geography lead for 2 years, and teaching for over 4 years.
My tutoring experience consists of private 1:1 Geography and Economics tutoring at University, A-level, GCSE, and pre-GCSE for 40+ different students (over 400 hours) throughout my degree and beyond, with my students consistently surpassing their initial predicted grades by one or more levels.
Within my teaching approach, I will tailor lessons according to the strengths of the learner. Ensuring that a range of skills and activities are involved, not only to provide an all-round comprehensive lesson but, also to make it more fun and exciting! I am proficient in AQA, Edexcel A and B, OCR and WJEC.

Thanks Holly for another fantastic session.
Thanks Holly, George is really finding the Geography and Economics sessions useful.
Zareen (2024) 'Holly is a very passionate and dedicated Geography tutor. I am always excited to have GCSE lessons with her and really look forward to them. Each lesson is packed with content and knowledge using slides that she has created and exam questions that are prepped before. Working through these questions has really boosted my confidence in the subject. A few months ago, I was unsure of how to answer essay questions with confidence and now I feel much more able with 9 markers. Holly fully informs me on how to structure them properly to gain full marks. She is very knowledgeable on the subject and shares feedback on answers I send to her. I couldn't recommend her enough for her professionalism, she goes above and beyond in explaining topics extremely well.'
Kelly (2024) 'My son had Holly for a couple of months before A level exams started. Holly helped with his revision and tested his knowledge on Geography which gave him more confidence going into the exams. Holly was very approachable, professional and friendly. I would regularly message Holly with what my sons teachers were asking him to go over for the exams, Holly would always find the case studies even at short notice, nothing was too much trouble. I would highly recommend Holly, Ciaran said Holly helped him massively.'
