Information About Lindsay

Personal Description: I consider myself to be a caring and enthusiastic tutor, with the ability to build a good rapport with my students. I have had experience of tutoring foreign students on a one-to-one basis and in small groups, both in the UK and abroad. I spent a year teaching English in Japan, which I particularly enjoyed. Students at all levels are welcome. 25% discount offered for group lessons.

I have a degree in English and hold the International Baccalaureate Diploma. I successfully completed the English component of this course at Higher level. and am experienced in tutoring GCSE and 'A' level English students. I hold the International Baccalaureate diploma and would be willing to work with students preparing for the English component, both at Higher and Standard levels. I am trained and experienced in helping children to read and have experience in tutoring schoolchildren from the age of 7 upwards. I am able to offer support to those students preparing for the 11+ exam.

Tutoring Experience: I have experience of teaching students on a one-to-one basis and in small groups, both in this country and aborad. I have worked with both mono-lingual and multi-lingual classes.

I have experience of tutoring GCSE English students, choosing, in consultation with the student, the texts to be studied, planning a coursework schedule and guiding the students through the complete course. My students have all gained top marks in GCSE exams.

I am trained and experienced in helping children to read and have tutored those preparing for SATS, the 11+ and students of secondary school age requiring extra help with English.

Tutoring Approach: I believe that tuition sessions should be student-led and will happily work on anything the student needs help with, be it a particular piece of work or a subject area that is causing particular difficulty. I always have a plan for any given session and will be able to provide ideas and guidance for any particular session if the student is unsure of the particular help they need.
