About Me
Studying is stressful. Sometimes it's hard to create the right environment for learning.

As a tutor I want to make every effort to ensure not only is a student learning, but that my student can build a broader appreciation of why it's important to know what they are consuming.

I have:

- A great track record in exams. I know exactly what is required to come out with top grades, there are far too many students who are more than capable, extremely smart - but struggle in exam conditions. I can impart my knowledge and experience and teach how to smash even the most stressful and time-pressured exams.

- A first-class degree from a Russell Group University in the subject of English. For many, attending the university of their dreams is the end goal after GCSE and A-Level exams. I have in-depth knowledge of the subject matter, and thus can give high-quality lessons for any novel, poems or plays.

- Experience working with young people and students. I'm passionate about working with people and centring everything I do around client satisfaction. As a recent graduate, I fully appreciate the nerves and pressure that can come with academia, and I want to make a positive difference for my students so that they can learn effectively, and help them secure the future they want.

Lucy
My name is Lucy and I live in West Sussex. I am fascinated by languages and communication and I have gained a wealth of experience in teaching and learning French, Spanish and English.

In 2013 I achieved my Level 5 Trinity College London Certificate in Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages (TESOL). I have have 8 years of classroom and private tutoring experience. My expertise is grammar: I am very skilled in this area having spent a lot of time studying. I have also gained plenty of experience in helping students with their speaking and listening skills. I am qualified to teach adults and teenagers, and have also gained experience in providing foreign primary school children with an introduction to the English language.

In 2017 I graduated with a 2:1 in French and Hispanic studies. In my third year at University I studied and worked abroad in Paris and Madrid. In Paris I was the English teacher of a small private school and I was in charge of designing the curriculum, teaching all the lessons, and creating an end of term assessment. In Madrid I was self employed and privately tutored several students with lessons tailored to their requirements. For example, one student wanted to improve conversation skills for her job as she was required to communicate with clients in the UK, so we focused on business conversation skills in English.

In June 2020 I will qualify as a Secondary Teacher of French and Spanish, teaching up to A level (Key Stage 5). I am currently on a SCITT PGCE course (School Centred Initial Teacher Training) which means I have been in the classroom since September gaining plenty of experience teaching the languages. Before beginning my ITT (Initial Teacher Training) year, I completed a 6 month Subject Knowledge Enhancer which involved studying the different modules of the GCSE and A level syllabuses and preparing a presentation on teaching each module to a class. This course has helped me understand exactly what is expected of the students during Key Stages 4 and 5 and I received excellent feedback on my achievements.

If you are studying French, Spanish or English, I can help you to succeed! We will tailor my class and lessons to your individual needs. Whether you want to build confidence in speaking and communicating, or need some extra help with grammar/ written work, I can help.
