Hi, my name is Claire and I've been a Secondary School English Language and Literature teacher in London Schools for the past 12 years. I have a wealth of experience in teaching KS3, GCSE and A Level English and have developed a range of specific exam techniques to ensure all my pupils are confident and well- equipped in the run up to their exams. I believe that every child learns in their own unique way and the key to success is us working together as a team to ensure that sessions are tailored accordingly in a fun and engaging way,
Having been an Assistant Head in charge of whole-school literacy, run workshops at National Conferences and delivered training sessions at my own school, I am highly skilled in a range of literacy strategies to aid fluent writing and that all important 'SPAG' element of the exam.
I am also Level 1 trained in 'Philosophy for Children' a programme that helps to develop pupils' creative and philosophical thinking skills, and I'm also currently studying for a Master in Psychology (Education) so I am fully aware how the brain learns and how best to tap into its potential.

Claire has been volunteering with our after-school student program in Guatemala for the past few months. She supports the main teacher in a mixed ages class (ages 0-14), allowing her plenty of opportunities to interact with students and direct learning.
Claire is a highly experienced teacher of English who has also been Head of English as well as Lead Practitioner for Teaching and Learning.
Her subject knowledge is impressive and compliments a wide variety of other skills. She has a real drive for success and this most importantly is shown in her lessons, which routinely stretch and challenge students, always expecting them to do their best, regardless of ability.
She is an excellent and reflective practitioner in the classroom with many different ways to teach both language and literature, supported by many years of experience teaching in London. Her relationship with students, parents and colleagues is first and foremost a positive one, but also one that is productive and encouraging.View more recommendations
