I am degree educated in English literature and language and have a master’s degree in Literacy and Learning. I also have a Secondary English PGCE with QTS.
Since qualifying as an English teacher in 2002, I have progressed from the position of class teacher to faculty head, consultant and Assistant Head. I am also the Director of Education at a specialist provision for children with Educational Healthcare plans at my school along side my teaching job.
Throughout this period, I have continued to work as an examiner for all 3 major exam boards, AQA, OCR & Edexcel. I am a specialist in re-engaging children back into education and I am currently in the final stage of my doctorate; my research focusing on the importance children’s agency and voice.
My approach is to design a program with the student, filling any gaps in understanding before developing knowledge and skills. I have many years’ experience of tutoring at key stage 3, 4 and 5 and have taught every exam board for English at GCSE and A Level.
Every student brings with them their own personality and learning style and I bring individual learning strategies and resources in my toolbox.
