About Lynn

BA, PGCE, MA (Distinction) As a creative freelance practitioner, English teacher, drama specialist & writer, I appreciate the power and beauty of language while also nurturing a sense of play & adventure during the online tuition and projects I deliver. I have been teaching and working with learners since 1996 including 20 years' experience as an English Teacher, Head of Drama & ITT Subject Mentor - I am qualified and hugely passionate about empowering children and adults through creativity. Also, being a LAMDA examiner, I can use my training to further inform my practice as I prepare young learners for a range of exams (or rather opportunities!) offered by LAMDA. Being a current GCSE examiner too for English Literature (formerly English Language too) keeps my skill-set current and I tailor tuition to the learner on an individual basis, up to A level. By providing an encouraging, engaging format to develop confident inter-personnel skills, I strongly advocate that children can become better equipped for their future (and have great fun doing it!) I use a range of pedagogies to inform my practice: Critical Skills, Habits of Mind and more recently with ongoing study, the Writing and Thinking pedagogy as taught by Bard College IWT. My interest in how we learn, and the importance of keeping learning relevant (the 'why' part) has been a key part of my professional focus since I started teaching in 1996. In October 2021 I was accepted onto the prestigious two-year Bard CLASP fellows programme, with the support of Black Mountains College, Talgarth who I am a faculty associate with. This exciting pedagogy is already deepening and lifting my practice - how it dovetails too, into the new curriculum for Wales - encouraging metacognition / thinking and writing - is really so pertinent and inspiring too. I am making the most of this incredible opportunity. CLASP Fellows Programme – CLASP Teaching Resources (bard.edu) I can provide creative and innovative approaches to themes and subject to suit classes with a range of learning styles. Having spent many years working with pastoral support I offer a safe, positive learning space to explore sensitive and important issues while being able to engage with care with the challenging conversations around, for example, climate change, anti-bullying. Working the way I do, with young people and across the age ranges, it really is a privilege and I love what I do. I look forward to hearing from you with any query you may have!

I enjoy my work as a tutor and take a pride in the success of the students I work with. My approach is focused and relaxed. A brain under pressure simply cannot learn! I focus upon using writing as a tool to harness deeper learning and gradual skill acquisition. Skills are transferable (as they should be) and naturally built up. The learner will always feel in charge of their own learning and lessons are delivered on a bespoke basis. I offer support beyond the online session and can also set tasks to help consolidate learning along with written feedback. A love for learning using critical skills is nurtured all while developing skills and confidence whether towards subject or entry exams, coursework or simply targeted texts / areas of focus within the subject. Learning while having fun or at least feeling relaxed, is key.
