I provide fun, interactive tutoring sessions that aim to build knowledge base and confidence in my students.

Advert description
My teaching approach is to start by briefly covering the topic, then doing active recall activities then going over past exam questions. Each session will be slightly different and I will adjust my approach to each student so they get the most out of the session.
Jess in a nutshell
When I teach a lesson, my first consideration is the student's preferred learning methods. From there, I incorporate relevant information format to efficiently and thoroughly cover the specified topic, then use different tools to practise active recall of facts and definitions before progressing to applying the information in greater detail with practice questions.

When I teach a lesson, my first consideration is the student's preferred learning methods. From there, I incorporate relevant information format to efficiently and thoroughly cover the specified topic, then use different tools to practise active recall of facts and definitions before progressing to applying the information in greater detail with practice questions.

My main presentation of information is through powerpoint for introduction of information, then when I explain in further detail or when going through a concept, I may use pen and paper to annotate as I explain. This not only offers a chance for the student to absorb the information in chunks as I annotate, but also provides opportunities for the student to actively engage and contribute their ideas while I explain. Everyone learns differently, so I work with my students to find the best way for them to absorb the information, whether this is quick fire questions, making mnemonics or working through past papers.

I am always open to feedback throughout the lesson and am more than happy to adapt the lesson plan to the student's preferences to make sure they get the most out of each lesson and continue to enjoy and benefit from them.

I understand completely that tutoring can be daunting or stressful, as I have had tutoring myself with GCSE and A level chemistry but I also know that a good tutor that is enthusiastic and patient can be a game changer for confidence in exams and depth of understanding of a subject.
