Philosophy:
‘My aim is to encourage confidence in students – a confident student is more motivated and shows improvement in overall ability. My style of tutoring addresses the areas of concern in school-based reporting and caters for parental concerns and individual needs.’

‘By setting achievable tasks and playing educational games, the student feels more positive and has fun – self esteem is improved and the student is enthused. The elements of long-term success for any student involve confidence building and the sharpening of skills; I can provide these elements in my hourly sessions.’
