About Judith

- What kind of experience do you have?

I taught English for ten years in state schools - mainly grammar schools but also wide ability - and have now worked for six years as a private tutor to KS3, GCSE and A Level students, as well as international students [adults and young people] learning English as a second language. In particular, I have experience helping dyslexic and dyspraxic students.

- Do you have an up-to-date DBS (Disclosure & Barring Service, formerly CRB) Certificate?

I have a current CRB disclosure certificate.

- Where and with whom did you train?

I obtained my degree after studying as a mature student at the University of Kent at Canterbury and did my teacher training the following year at Canterbury Christchurch University. I studied for the Cambridge Certificate in English language Teaching for Adults [CELTA] at the Concorde Language School, Canterbury in 2009.

- Do you belong to any professional organisations?

I am a member of the NASUWT.

- Tell me about some of your current students.

I think that I am especially good at motivating and encouraging students who have become disenchanted with English at school, or who lack confidence. I have also worked very successfully with A Level Students who appreciate the opportunity for quality, focussed exploration of texts, and a more detailed personal critique of their skills than is possible in a classroom context. I have also helped dyslexic, dyspraxic and Aspergers students, and home-schooled pupils at GCSE and A Level. The most successful outcomes are when parents, students and tutor are working together as a team. It has been such a privilege to get to know some lovely families this way. However, I have also had a number of very independent and enterprising, self-funding A Level students who have also been a delight to work with.

I have an honours degree in English and American Literature and PGCE Secondary English. I also have a Cambridge CELTA qualification for the teaching of English as a foreign language.

- How much do you charge?

My standard rate is £35/hrfor KS3/GCSE tuition it ESL or £40p/hr for A Level at my home - with an extra £5 supplement if I travel up 10 miles to teach. Above a 10 mile radius I charge 45p per mile. My fee includes includes preparation of materials and marking of work that I set; my rationale is that I am a professional providing a high-quality professional service. It also includes periodic reviews of students' progress and needs.

- Where do you teach?

I can teach in my own home, with the advantage that here I have access to my books and materials, and we can be guaranteed peace and quite and space for study. I can also visit students in their own home or school within about an 8-10 mile radius of Canterbury. Also, I can teach via WhatsApp video or FaceTime.

I am generally available both after school and - for A Level, EFL and home-schooled students - during the school day. I may be available for some limited tuition on Saturdays.

Mostly KS3, GCSE and AS/A2 levels, but also undergraduate and adult learners.

- Which qualifications do you prepare your students for?

GCSE English Language; GCSE English Literature; A Level English Literature; A Level English Language

- Do you have a personal message for students?

"Teaching and learning is a two-way process" and "You only get out what you put in": those may seem rather trite statements, but they are both very true! My aim is always to help you to become a confident, more independent learner who is increasingly able to recognise your own strengths and needs and to build from that base through hard work.
I also try to share something of my own enthusiasm for English: you may not end up being as crazy about poetry or Shakespeare as me, but I hope that at least you will begin to appreciate English a bit more as well as use it more effectively.
