SATs tests and the Common Entrance exam

Pupils may require support in the key areas of reading, writing and spelling, grammar and punctuation. These provide children with a core of knowledge and skills that will provide them with a solid base on which to build at secondary school. Some private tutoring at at primary level not only helps children build confidence, enjoy learning English and make progress, it also ensures a seamless transition to secondary school, so is a worthwhile investment. 

SATs tests and the Common Entrance exam require a specific set of skills that children may need coaching in to help them pass. Lessons focus on reading comprehension, writing composition, verbal reasoning and mastery of spelling, grammar and punctuation. Developing these core skills and exam techniques will help your child prepare for these tests and exams with confidence and enjoyment. All my students have achieved high grades in SATs tests and CE exams, which have allowed them to progress to the next stage of their education with confidence.

Lessons take place online, and make use of the latest educational software to create both interesting and effective lessons. Homework is an important part of the learning process. It gives learners the opportunity to revise and consolidate new areas worked on in the live session. 
GCSE and A Level English

Students require a high level of skill and an in depth knowledge of the assessment objectives in order to succeed in the GCSE English exams. Lessons link to the specific curriculum and set texts being followed by your child's school. Developing revision skills and exam techniques will help your child prepare for these important exams with confidence and avoid unnecessary stress. We have a proven track record of helping learners achieve or exceed their target grades in GCSE and IGCSE English Language and English literature exams. 

The step up from GCSE to A level English can be a challenge for students. Lessons focus on the analysis of writers' methods and how these shape meanings in a range of texts; the study of critical theories; and the production of well-structured essays and other forms of writing, depending on the exam syllabus your child’s school is following. I have helped students achieve higher grades in AQA A level Language and  A level Literature.

English as a Foreign Language

Both academic students and working professionals can benefit from one-to-one support to improve their spoken and written English. Lessons are tailored to focus on each learner's specific requirements and can cover the syllabus of the internationally recognised IELTS tests, which is needed to access UK universities. 

Learners connect with their me via video conferencing, which enables effective communication. I use learning platforms to enable the planning and delivery of interesting lessons, and provide a forum on which tasks can be assigned and reviewed. Individualised feedback and error correction is a vital part of the language learning process, and my unique methodology helps native speakers of many languages to develop fluency and accuracy in English. The live session is an opportunity to review homework assignments and acquire new skills and concepts so that a regular cycle of learning, consolidation and assessment helps learners progress.
