Information About John

Personal Description: I worked in Civil Engineering for nineteen years as a project engineer and manager.
I re-trained as a teacher and taught in a secondary comprehensive school for thirteen years before retiring in 2006. I am married and have one son who is currently at University.

Tutoring Experience: **Telephone Number Removed** Science teacher and form tutor at Lavington School (11-16 comprehensive). Main duties: Science teaching - Key Stage 3 and GCSE
**Telephone Number Removed** Supply teacher in various Wiltshire comprehensive schools

Tutoring Approach: I conduct tutorials in a friendly and relaxed way.
After ascertaining the student's particular needs, I will agree a programme of tutorials.
I usually use question and answer techniques together with explanatory diagrams.
I normally set homework questions (often from past papers) and go through these with the student at the beginning of the next lesson.
