Personal Description:

Hi, I'm Katie, I am from the UK and did all my studying there, I graduated from University with a BSc in Psychology last year. I studied English, Geography and Psychology up until I finished school at age 18 so these are the subjects I feel most able and qualified to tutor in. I'm currently living in Whistler and was hoping to be enjoying my first winter season however that does not seem to be the case and I am hoping under the current circumstances I can help anyone who may need it.

Tutoring Experience:

Most of my experience is with the early years, assisting in classes, mostly doing 1-1 work. I have some experience assisting with English with Elementary ages, particularly with those who found it difficult. I also have experience working with children of elementary age who have speech and language difficulties, I did 1-1 work from age 4 helping them expand their vocabulary and their pronunciation of words. Other experience comes from helping my younger brother with his school work.

Tutoring Approach:

My approach would be pupil led, as in I would see what their capabilities were; for older children, if there was something they were particularly struggling with I would start there. From my background in Psychology, I find the most effective way of tutoring someone would be to do it in a way that they best learn. If they prefer to use diagrams and images then I would use that as a basis. I am looking to do online tuition currently.
