Information About Anne - Broadstairs teacher -

(9 reviews)

Personal Description:

I am now retired after a very successful career teaching languages for 33 years, some as Head of Modern Languages and some as Head of Spanish. I have also taught English to foreign students in one of the local language schools. I live in Broadstairs and tutor from home or via Skype.

Teaching Experience:

I have taught in both maintained and independent schools, most recently in a prestigious school in Surrey. I have done some examining for AQA and conducted A level and GCSE orals for 33 years, as well as mentoring other teachers. My students have almost always gained one or two grades higher than their predicted grade.

Teaching Approach:

I particularly enjoy teaching grammar and have a wealth of materials and resources that I have written myself. I try to keep things simple rather than overloading my students with information that they don't need, since this invariably leads to confusion. I believe that lessons should be varied and fun and geared towards an individual's learning style. I have a kind and caring approach and, most importantly for teaching, a sense of humour! I am equally at home teaching children or adults and will regularly check that your are happy with the lessons and my teaching style. Please note that my hourly rate for adults is £40. If you are looking for tuition for your child the rates are lower and you may wish to look on the Academic page of the website.
