My main goal with sessions is to provide a personalised and effective environment for each student. I'll use our initial lesson to assess my students' strengths and weaknesses through simple discussion in order to structure a long-term plan of how to build upon my students' knowledge. These plans are meant to work simultaneously with exam board specifications and requirements so that my students excel not just in content but in the actual exam!
Lessons will typically run an hour, in which we will target any weak areas in subject knowledge to ensure thorough understanding before applying it to exam questions or content questions. My lessons for psychology and economics are intended for A-level students whilst English is applicable to both SATs, GCSE, and A-level students. My LNAT sessions are intended for anyone interested in completing both the essay and MCQ sections.
The first half is dedicated to content learning and revision. For subjects like English and psychology, this may involve analysing sample exam questions or crafting essay plans. This approach not only reinforces knowledge but also familiarises students with the exam format. The second half of our sessions is devoted to actively applying the concepts we've covered through honing writing, structuring, and argument building. In this way, I aim to get students to understand how the exam works from the get-go, so the pressure in the exam hall feels much less than it should be!
I hope to help any students get the grades they need so please feel free to say hi!
