My teaching approach
I believe tutoring should be personalised, not one-size-fits-all.
I start by finding out what the student already knows, where they are currently struggling and what they want to achieve. I then structure lessons around those areas.
My lessons combine explanation, discussion, questioning and exam practice. I place particular emphasis on helping students apply geographical knowledge and write effective exam answers, rather than simply memorising facts.
For exam preparation, we can work on understanding command words, using case studies effectively, developing evaluation and structuring longer answers to access the higher levels of the mark scheme.
Most importantly, I want students to leave each lesson feeling more confident and knowing exactly what they need to work on next.
If you're interested in tutoring, please get in touch and tell me:
* The student's year group
* Their exam board
* Their current/target grade
* The topics they are currently studying
* What they would like help wi
