Fun, energy and passion are the fundamentals of my teaching, and over 22 years of experience has enabled me to finely tune this recipe for successful and enjoyable learning.

I have a first class BMus Honours degree and an A* in Music A-Level. I specialized in Jazz performance in America in my final year of my degree and also have a wealth of experience performing Jazz; playing lead saxophone in several jazz bands, and leading my own jazz trio on piano.

Neil T

GCSE, KS3 Chemistry tutor in Helston, South West

£45.00Academic tutor

I am a highly experienced teacher having worked in a number of secondary schools across England. At various points in my career I have been Head of Science and a Senior Leader in school. I have worked with exam boards, science associations and trainee teachers. Throughout this time I have enjoyed tutoring individual students to success alongside my full time role in school. I am now devoting more time to tutoring having found online learning to be a great way to help students build confidence and achieve their potential. I find that working on understanding of key topics allows students to face any questions which are put to them in exams and gives them the confidence to make the most of their own learning.

Hello I'm a Swiss citizen who is living since 2 years in Cornwall. I work in an international Re-Insurance company where I have to deal daily with all sorts of languages around the globe - and of course - people :-) My mother tongue is high German since my parents have immigrated from Germany to Switzerland where I was born. Having lived and worked in Italy for over 3 years and also in Spain on the Canary Island for a few years, I had always some pupils in all ages who wanted to learn foreign languages. I basically offer conversational courses on all levels in German, Italian and Spanish. My lessons have usually a duration between 45 - 60min - depends on what level the individual student is and what they want to achieve. I can also help with homework on usual school levels if requested, price to be discussed. The tutoring can be held on skype and also in person (within 10 miles around St Columb Major). For any further information please get in touch with me, happy to meet you and discuss any individual wishes or ideas. Best regards Sabrina

Jo F

KS3 English, GCSE English tutor in St Teath, South West

£20.00-30.00Academic tutor

Personalised on-line tutoring gives young people a chance to work in ways that are best for them - in an environment where they feel comfortable and safe. I can provide a bespoke curriculum to suit the individual student: addressing their strengths, skills and needs. I am a fully qualified English teacher with over thirty years teaching experience in secondary schools in Yorkshire and Cornwall where I have successfully tutored young people at Key Stage 3, G.C.S.E. and A' level. I love teaching and the opportunities it affords to help youngsters to achieve their full potential in an enjoyable and challenging way, and I think that 1:1 on-line tutoring is wonderful way to deliver really personal, engaging learning.

I have 25 years of teaching experience during which I have taught across the primary age range in a variety of schools. I currently teach part-time in an SEN unit that is attached to a mainstream school - our focus being to help our students back into their mainstream classes. Our students have a range of needs, predominately Autism Spectrum Condition and Sensory Processing Disorders ( though I have also worked with children who have Down's Syndrome, Dyslexia, Attachment Disorders) I have developed a vast range of strategies for meeting the needs of these learners. I am very used to planning and delivering lessons on a 1:1 basis; working out the barriers that slow down learning and seeking ways to overcome them is part of my daily practice.
