About Kate

I graduated from Warwick University with a First in English and Theatre Studies before embarking on a career in Education, fulfilling roles such as Year 7 Leader, Progress Leader, Lead Teacher in Drama and Head of Department in both English and Drama.

I thoroughly enjoy helping students achieve their full potential in the subjects that I am so passionate about. I love being able to use my experience, expertise and knowledge to not only help students make rapid progress against their targets, but also develop a genuine interest in language and literature.

Testimonials:
‘I would like to express my thanks as your tutoring has proven extremely beneficial to my analytical skills and exam method. Additionally, I am certain that without your excellent feedback and knowledge I would have most likely not been able to get several extra marks.’

I have an up-to-date DBS certificate.

I taught English and Drama in secondary schools for ten years (achieving a High Qualified Teacher Status), most recently undertaking the role of Head of English and Drama, and began tutoring last year.

I have a wealth of experience teaching the following qualifications, but can also assist with other specifications/exam boards if required:
AQA English Language GCSE
AQA English Literature GCSE
OCR English Literature A Level
Edexcel Drama GCSE

I pride myself on being able to support students to achieve their full potential through a positive and encouraging approach with a keen focus on continual progress. My teaching style is driven by verbal as well as written feedback and I create tutoring sessions which are specifically tailored to suit a student’s individual targets.

Having partaken and overseen the marking of numerous exam-style assessments in order to determine grades during the pandemic, I have an extremely thorough understanding of the mark schemes of the stated specifications, given the extensive training I undertook during this process.

I also have experience of both teaching small classes and tutoring individuals for exam retakes, facilitating rapid progress over a short amount of time through tailored feedback and intervention.

One hour online sessions are priced at £45; these will take place on Google Meet and we will use Google documents to enable immediate feedback. In-person sessions can be arranged within the area of Epsom for the same price.
