I first started one-to-one tutoring in 2004 in Japan (English as a foreign language), and then a few years later back in the UK I began tutoring children for their 7 and 8+ exams. Preparing children for these exams encouraged me to seek out fun and creative ideas for both story construction and the consolidation of mathematical concepts. I have helped children gain places at St Paul's, Westminster, NLCS and Latymer.
It was a natural progression from this to work with older children at 11+ and 13+ levels; at both these levels I have used my experience as a Philosophy Foundation facilitator to develop critical and imaginative thinking.
Over the years, I have also worked with SEN pupils (at had the Dyslexia Teaching Centre and Bloomfield Learning Centre). I have also worked with Action Tutoring as a volunteer tutor for both English and maths in primary schools.
Specific experience includes: ISEB Common Pre-Test, Eton List Test,
I have successfully prepared children at 11+ for schools including Alleyn's, Latymer, St Paul's, City of London, Highgate, Latymer and Godolphin and Emmanuel. At 13+ my students have had success with schools including Dulwich, Harrow, Tonbridge, Marlborough and many others.
