Sarah
English Tutor
I am a practicing English tutor, GCSE exam marker, life coach, mental health and autism specialist social worker with 19 years teaching experience as a secondary school English Teacher (including as Head of Department).
I hold an MA, PG Diploma and PG Certificate in social work, a PG Certificate in Psychology, a PGCE in English and a BA Hons in English with Management Studies so I know quite a bit about exams... and anxiety about exams.
I love working with neurodivergent people and am equally happy tutoring children and adults, and currently support degree and masters level social work students through mentoring and coworking with a view to taking my practice educator post graduate qualification later this year. I have taught or tutored Drama, English Language, English Literature, Media Studies, Asdan, Functional Skills Entry 1- Level 2 for a range of exam boards and qualifications including BTEC, GCSE and City and Guilds.
I focus on flexible online tuition for those that are more comfortable with online communication than face to face and am particularly skilled in identifying and supporting reasonable adjustments for all levels of attainment. And I am currently writing a book to be published later this year.
