Matthew T.

I am an experienced and professional Private Tutor who teaches in the South of England. I have degrees in English Literature and History; I specialise in all the humanities subjects: English Literature, English Language, History, Religious Studies, Politics, and Psychology. I have been running my own private tuition and teaching business for over a decade, and consequently, have helped thousands of students improve their grades and achieve their academic goals.

For the last five years, I have been working as a GCSE and iGCSE examiner for Eduqas/WJEC, OCR, and Cambridge International (CIE) exam boards, this acts as a continuous training to be familiar and proficient with the assessment objectives and mark schemes in order to deliver high-quality and effecting lessons to my students.

I cover/teach content from all of the major exam boards: AQA, Edexcel/Pearson, WJEC/Eduqas, OCR, and CIE. Throughout my decade of tutoring, I have taught material from Key Stage 1 all the way up to A Level and Degree material.

In addition, I teach specialist preparation classes for 11+, 13+, and King's Scholarship exams, as well as international students iGCSE and S.A.Ts.

SEN experience: I have taught many students with a variety of educational needs, ranging from dyslexia, dyspraxia, dysgraphia, ADD, ADHD, slow processing issues to various learning challenges and have found a way to always engage them in the sessions and keep them interested in the subject and help them achieve their goals.

I have a passion for teaching; I love interacting with students and seeing them develop their skills, expand their knowledge, and realise their potential. I try to immediately establish a strong rapport with my students, and I aim to ensure that my sessions are very engaging and interactive. Typically, my students improve by at least 3 grades after a year with me, although there have been some higher and more impressive leaps in grades.
