About Gemma
I have over six years' experience tutoring English both in-person and online and during this time I have supported hundreds of students through their GCSE and A Level qualifications, as well as assisting with learning methods, university entry and overall academic strategy. My training with the 3 major exam boards means that I can offer students the best possible advice on exam technique so that they can go into their exams feeling confident that they will achieve the results they deserve.
?My success in improving learning outcomes is based on an integrated approach that takes into account the strengths and requirements of the individual, and works to build independence and academic resilience. I firmly believe that tutoring is not just about teaching students what to learn but also how to learn. This enables students to mature into confident and motivated learners, supporting their progress not only in English but in all academic subjects.
?
My service is friendly and highly personalised. I design a personal learning plan in collaboration with the student and their parents and tailor-make resources that are optimally designed to support the progress of your child and nurture their unique potential.
I have taught students of all abilities with a wide variety of requirements including long and short term tuition, remote learning, intensive holiday sessions and support for dyslexia and processing disorders.

Recommendations
Recommendations come from relatives, friends and acquaintances of the teacher
Gemma's knowledge of the GCSE English Language and Literature courses has always been evident in all communication sent. It is clear that she has a genuine desire to help her students to achieve to the best of their ability. I would highly recommend Gemma to anyone looking for English tuition.
Gemma tutored me in the months leading up to my GCSE English Literature exam. I decided to get a tutor after I received my mock results and wanted to know how to improve. Gemma has a really good understanding of how the exams are marked so by the time exams came around I too had a good idea as to how to structure my answers to get all of the marks I possibly could.
