About David
I have over 20 years of teaching experience, working in both state schools and independent schools. As a consequence, I have worked with students who may lack confidence and need to improve their skills; I have worked with more able students who are seeking to extend themselves; I have helped prepare students for entrance exams, coursework assignments, and terminal exams.
I am familiar with the barriers that some learners can create due to a lack of confidence, and endeavour to help them overcome this by offering structured sessions that address this and build in progression of skills to equip the learner to be more independent and self-assured with their English.

Calm and patient tutor with over 20 years' experience of working with a range of students (ability, confidence and focus).
Teaching English from 11-18 years, in both state schools and the independent sector, I am familiar with the needs of those preparing for entrance exams, terminal GCSE and A' Level exams, as well as learners who want to raise grades and confidence in order to get into better sets for English.
Lessons are typically 1 hour long and will focus on agreed areas; this could be written responses, reading comprehension, understanding and application of language terms and devices when analysing texts or working with comparative tasks and coursework.
An initial consultation of the individual needs and desired outcomes of the tutoring will be used to design a bespoke package of support sessions to enable the learner to build confidence and their skills with English.
Each lesson will offer a 30-minute consolidation task that will be marked - this is often a great way to see how the learner is able to apply the lesson's practice and can be used to guide future sessions.
Being able to share some recent work from the learner is a great way for me to get a sense of the areas that need work and to tailor the tutoring sessions more effectively. I am happy to liaise with class teachers, should this be agreed.

After a myriad of issues leading to my niece failing her GCSE English 5 times. She had lost all confidence and was a reluctant learner. David rose to this significant challenge brilliantly. He found ways not only to make the course content work for her, but also encourage her to stretch herself and increase her confidence. This led to her achieving 49 out of 60 for her coursework, an astounding achievement, and came out of her recent exam more confident than I have ever seen her. We are still awaiting her final result, but whatever her outcome, David’s patience and care has had a palpable impact on her and I am extremely grateful for all his hard work. I could not recommend him more.
I worked with David for 8 years. David is professional, reliable, highly intelligent and very respected senior English teacher. He is able to break down information in an engaging and results-oriented manner, and tailor his resources to student needs and interest. He has patience and much experience with a range of learners, drawing the best from the most able to the most reluctant. I wholeheartedly recommend him as a capable, efficient, helpful and inspiring teacher.
