Personal Description: I live in Stamford, Lincs and have been offering tutoring for about 5 years. I very much enjoy the 1 to 1 nature of tutoring and a sense of achievement when the child makes progress and becomes a more confident learner. Quite often, the extra attention on a weekly basis helps the child to 'click' with the topics that have been causing difficulties.

Tutoring Experience: I have been teaching for over 20 years in a variety of schools teaching children from years 4 to 13. I teach in an independent girls school.

Tutoring Approach: I would say my approach is fairly traditional, but with a younger child it is important not to create an intimidating situation. I try to make the child feel 'special' and introduce some 'fun' - keep it light if possible. If preparing for an entrance eaxm then I must focus on the assessment objectives, and develop a graded appraoch to the tasks which the child will have to perform.
