My qualifications are listed in my 'About Me' section in detail, but I have an English Degree, a Classroom Assistant qualification, and a CELTA qualification, including many more.

No; while I don't have QTS (Qualified Teacher Status), I am more than qualified to tutor your child/you. I have studied many of the GCSE syllabuses. I have always referred to myself as a tutor, not a teacher.

Yes, on many occasions and in many different settings, including children with autism, dyslexia, dyspraxia and anxiety issues.

I take it at the client's speed, and if they need extra time and space, I give them that. I have worked with teenagers who hate the camera being on, and that's okay by me. I tailor my lessons to the client's strengths.

Fun, quirky and relaxed!

I am a firm believer that everyone should have access to 1:1 tuition! I think it's wonderful because we can do it the client's way. I have worked with so many children who are scared of having all the focus on them and then grow to love learning as they realise they get all the attention and take their lessons at their speed and at their level. Some children struggle in a classroom environment; maybe they are self-conscious about speaking in front of their peers for fear of embarrassing themselves, maybe some children hate reading aloud, or some children get left behind or find school boring because they are at a different level - in that case, 1:1 is for you! My classroom environment is set up so that my students are encouraged to try, but not worry if they get it wrong. I've taught students who hate school but thrive in a 1:1 environment.

Turn up, try, have a go and don't be afraid to make mistakes - it's how we all learn! If you're not sure; have a go, or ask - but I always try and encourage my students to have a try first - you risk nothing by getting it wrong!

Depends on where you live! I'm based in the North East of England, and I find online lessons easier, but I do have some face-to-face lessons, providing they are local.

It varies! Online lessons will always be cheaper, and I will always make a promise to try and keep my costs as low as possible. Prices vary from £20-30, depending on circumstances. I will also offer a discount for siblings.

Anything from Shakespeare to modal verbs to teaching English comprehension to students in Qatar! That's the beauty of this job; you never know what will turn up!

No; the beauty of working online means I have tutored students in China, Spain, Vietnam and Qatar to name a few!
