I am an experienced and supportive tutor with a strong background in education, psychology, and student development. With over 18 years of teaching experience across Further Education settings, I specialise in helping learners build confidence, strengthen their study skills, and achieve their academic goals. I also volunteer as a group facilitator in mental-health settings, which has helped me develop a calm, patient and empathetic teaching approach.

My lessons are structured, friendly, and designed around your individual needs. I begin by identifying your goals, strengths, and areas for improvement. Together, we then set clear and achievable SMART learning targets so you always know exactly what we are working on and how you are progressing. I break topics into simple, manageable steps and use clear explanations, examples and guided practice to make learning easier and more enjoyable.

I tailor every session to your learning style, whether you prefer visual explanations, practical exercises, step-by-step guidance, or confidence-building activities. I also provide regular, constructive feedback so you can see your growth and stay motivated. My aim is always to help you feel supported, capable, and confident—especially if you have struggled with learning in the past or need help staying focused.

Whether you’re looking to improve academic skills, boost confidence, prepare for assessments, or learn at your own pace, I will work with you to create a personalised plan that fits your needs. My teaching style is encouraging, patient and student-centred, and I’m dedicated to helping every learner succeed.
