Tutoring ethos

Good learning starts with questions

• People learn in lots of different ways and my tutoring tries to take account of those different learning styles and needs.

• I endeavour to constantly challenge and empower my students. Developing close but respectful relationships lays the foundation for my students being secure enough to take risks.

• I use a range of communication strategies which include listening, observing, questioning, explaining, modelling, storytelling and coaching.

• Assessment for learning methods are embedded into my learning culture. Questioning, discussing and analysing, along with strategic marking and feedback, enable me to help my students move forward successfully.
