I have an array of experience as a tutor and educator. I have worked for the last year as a freelance tutor and taught students from KS3 to A-Levels. In addition to this I have worked as a TEFL teacher over the last 2 years in Italy, Poland and in the UK. My most recent job was teaching international students at a summer school in Salisbury. I also have worked as a teaching assistant in both the primary and secondary school system.

I have a current enhanced disclosure available on request.

- Tell me about some of your current students.

I am currently preparing a student for her KS3 English exam as well as helping her with her pronunciation. In addition to this I am currently tutoring two KS2 students in maths and English, and another student in GCSE English. In the last academic year I helped three students with their English GCSEs, one with an iGCSE in English and a student with her As-Level in Music.

I had Josh help me with my AS Music because I was struggling with a few things on the syllabus. Since I started lessons with him my confidence and interest in the subject improved greatly and I was able to achieve much better grades. Josh was able to answer all my questions as well as giving me additional information on what I was working on, which I was always interested to hear about. He prepares himself extremely well for each lesson and I couldn't be more grateful.
