GCSE / A Level students. BTEC sociology unit (Health and Social care). Extra tutoring or home educators.

I am an experienced and qualified secondary and A-level/BTEC teacher based in Brighton, specialising in social sciences and humanities, including Sociology, Health & Social Care, and related subjects. With over 20 years of teaching and leadership experience, I have a proven track record of helping students achieve excellent results while building confidence, critical thinking, and independent learning skills.
I offer both online and in-person lessons tailored to each learner’s needs, combining subject expertise with structured, engaging teaching strategies. My approach includes research-informed methods such as metacognition, spiral learning, and active discussion, ensuring that students not only understand the content but also know how to apply it effectively in exams and assignments. Lessons are interactive, encouraging students to ask questions, explore ideas, and develop their own approaches to learning.

In addition to academic tutoring, I provide coaching for future pathways, including university applications, career guidance, and progression planning. I guide students through subject choices, application processes, and skill development to ensure they are confident and prepared for the next stage of their education or career.

I am passionate about making learning engaging, accessible, and relevant. I use a variety of teaching methods to suit all learning styles, including presentations, discussion, research projects, group work, and one-to-one guidance. I also incorporate study skills, exam technique, and practical strategies to help learners manage time, prioritise tasks, and improve outcomes.
Past students have benefited from my supportive and structured approach, achieving higher grades, greater confidence, and stronger preparation for exams and further study. I am committed to helping every student reach their full potential, fostering both academic success and personal growth.
Whether you are looking for support with specific subjects, general study skills, exam preparation, or guidance on future pathways, I provide engaging, personalised lessons designed to meet your goals and inspire a lifelong love of learning.
