Ava Patchesa

I have been tutoring English for nearly two years at all age groups from Ks2 all the way up to A-level.

I offer hour long sessions where I can offer sessions which are tailored to the needs of your child, whether this being short and engaging activities or exam preparation activities for a child who is preparing for their exams. After each session I complete a fully detailed report of our session detailing what went well, where we can improve and what we aim to cover in the upcoming sessions!

I take a pupil first approach and try centre learning around the child’s needs and Interests as I believe this is the best way for engagement!

I am a friendly and approachable tutor who is encouraging and is very adaptable to differing levels of knowledge and skill. I believe this helps me greatly in getting to know the students needs and making best use of the time we have together!

I also tutor physical education at gcse and Alevel where I am particularly knowledgeable as I have recently completed a degree in sports and exercise sciences at Durham.

I have also had experience working with SEN students where I have worked with ADHD and dyslexia and have some excellent resources which suit the differing needs of different individuals.
