EXPERIENCE
A qualified teacher with 15 years' experience. My students have always achieved well & made great progress. I have been a lead practitioner for science, a head of science and a deputy headteacher – you will receive a professional service at all times.

EXAMINER
I have worked as an examiner for GCSE and A levels for different exam boards. Examiners gain a far greater insight into the nuances in applying of the mark scheme. I have marked GCSE Biology and Chemistry papers for the last 8 years, for both triple science and combined science. I can therefore support you with knowing how best to tackle exam questions, how to decipher the questions and which key words are really important in your answers.

EXCELLENCE
As a teacher and a tutor, I have been able to help students to achieve grade 7-9s and have also taught at A level, with my students achieving As and being accepted into medical school, Cambridge and the Russell Group universities. I am able to teach to the top, and from being an examiner, I know how to support my students in achieving top marks in exam questions. This year, I worked with several students aiming to secure GCSE grade 9s and looking to pursue medical school after A levels.

SEND
Students enjoy my lessons & get satisfaction from making progress & understanding difficult content. I trained as a SENDCo back in 2016, so I am aware of additional needs that children may have and the challenges this can present in their learning. I can confidently differentiate and adapt my teaching to support the individual needs of my students.

SUPPORT
I am able to find different ways of explaining key concepts and I am patient and understanding if it takes a little time to grasp something. I also use lots of ways to help you to remember content. GCSE science has a lot of content to remember, so working on recall and having an understanding of how students learn and move knowledge from short term to long-term memory is imp

Sarah is an amazing tutor! She helped me to get to grade 9s in Biology and Chemistry when I was getting 7s in my mock exams. I want to go on to medical school after A levels, so I really needed those 9s! Sarah’s knowledge of the exam specification and how to answer the questions is excellent. Knowing exactly what words to use and how to construct my answers was what made such a difference to my grade. Sarah is also really friendly and down to earth. I can’t recommend her enough! Dionne
