Louise

My name is Louise, and for over 14 years, I have been dedicated to supporting students through one to one tuition. As an academic lawyer, legal educator, and history teacher, I bring a wealth of knowledge to my students. I serve as a senior examiner in history for both GCSE and A'levels, and was a a university lecturer assessor in law for over nine years. When I am not tutoring, I serve as a family court presiding justice magistrate. My journey into education began when my own children were younger, transitioning from a corporate background. I taught in an independent school for three years before starting my own business 14 years ago. I help students at both ends of the scale, those who are gifted and talented but are not being stretched enough within their current academic environment, to students who are considered 'average'. In my experience, no student is average and every student has the ability to be successful, they just need the tools and confidence to succeed. I also have extensive experience with students who have learning challenges such as dyslexia, dyspraxia, ASD and ADHD. My own son struggled in a mainstream school environment (ADHD and dyslexia) and through my support, he is now thriving at a US university and about to graduate in English and philosophy.

I teach all lessons via a dedicated zoom platform and I have students from all over the world. Being online reduces the time for travel and students are in their own space and are more comfortable and at ease which promotes a healthy and productive learning environment. I focus on skills that are required to get the top grades in public exams. As an experienced tutor it is very clear to see that although students are being taught content and skills at school, there is little time to perfect those skills within the timetable, particularly with the pressures of other subjects and extra curricular activities. My students consistently perform at the top end and 100% of my students from 2025 got A*-B (80% A*-A) in A'levels and 100% got grade 9s at GCSE. On First tutors I had 45 5star reviews.
