About Justin

I am a qualified specialist teacher in dyslexia with thousands of hours experience preparing children for exams.

I am passionate about my students overcoming their limitations and reaching their full potential. I have a creative approach to learning and believe that students perform best when they are comfortable and feel free to make mistakes. I have been teaching for over 20 years and I am also a director of an educational company, designing courses of study in the Far East.

I specialise in tutoring students for GCSE, Common Entrance and Public School entrance examinations. My students have gained places at many of London's top schools including Westminster, St Pauls, Harrow and Latymer.
My lessons are often described as a balance between 'humour and hard work'. My approach is collaborative, rather than imposed; I guide children to make their own discoveries as I feel this engenders greater autonomy and self-confidence.

I am experienced at teaching most GCSE exam boards including IGCSE. My students range from 6-16 years of age and my interest lies in creating a rapport with each pupil in order to build trust and find out what engages and motivates them. I currently teach at a specialist school for dyslexic and dyspraxic students. Prior to this I taught English, French and Theatre to students at the Complete Works Independent School for over 5 years. Many of the students at TCW have behavioural, emotional and learning difficulties, including dyslexia, dyspraxia and autism. Working with this huge cross section of needs has given me the experience to quickly ascertain why children are underperforming and to identify what can be done to rectify this. During my time at TCW my results were outstanding - the best the school had achieved to date.

I speak fluent French and was awarded a scholarship to study at Ecole Florent, Paris (France's most prestigious drama school), and I have worked professionally in theatre and television. I was a senior English tutor at Linguarama (one of the world-leading language training companies ) for 6 years, where I was responsible for designing programmes of study specifically tailored to students' needs.

I have an enduring love for theatre, film, literature and language. I have toured the UK and Europe performing theatre in both English and French.

I have practised meditation and mindfulness for many years and often use these techniques with students in order to alleviate exam stress and to focus them during lessons.

If you feel I could be of help to your child, please don't hesitate to get in touch.

I look forward to meeting you.


Warm regards
