DBS and teaching experience
Hi there! My name is Emma and I am enthusiastic about helping young people achieve their full potential. I have taught for over 15 years now in different capacities and I also juggle my life as a tutor with my life as a mother.
I attended university and obtained my teaching degree back in 2011 and I have worked, primarily in Bushey and Watford ever since! I have worked in numerous primary and secondary schools teaching and have also run my own tutoring business for over 10 years. I have also worked abroad; Both in Italy and Poland and I am currently working alongside a few local secondary schools to help with alternative provision for those pupils to poorly to attend school.
My main drive is to deliver the best supplementary education possible to support children who may get lost in large class sizes or be let down by a high staff turn over or inadequate teaching at their own school which seems to be a common thread in all schools not excluding independent schools.
I encourage all of my students to be excited by what they are learning. I have turned 'dull' topics (in their words not mine!) into exciting lessons where the students have asked more and more questions fuelled by their own curiosity.
I make every effort to get to know my own students on a personal level in order to cater the learning to them and extend this from my 1:1 students into group teaching too. I am available to my students any time so if they are worried or have a question they can always get in contact with me to avoid any unnecessary stress! I also feel that the community based learning approach that we are achieving helps to ground pupils, build confidence and raise expectations for all.
I am also available for parents to contact me with any queries or concerns. Do get in touch if you need to.
Teacher of KS3 Math - Dylan Mynett
Hello! I’m Dylan, and I’m running the KS3 maths class!
(Don’t worry, I won’t go off on a tangent - that’s a cheesy one!)
I believe that maths is a gateway to a deeper comprehension of how everything functions. Developing a love for maths not only allows people to better dimensionalise their understanding of the way things work, but it also sparks a curiosity that enchants new discoveries and ways of thinking.
During our maths classes, students are nurtured through bespoke guidance to support their every need. However, I also strive to make classes enjoyable and engaging to encourage students to develop an intrinsic love for the subject.
By way of my experience with maths, I have always loved the subject, participating in the UKMT Maths Challenges from a young age. I was chosen by Axiom Maths to participate in extra-curricular ‘maths circles’ from Year 7 to 11 allowing me to extend my knowledge past the GCSE curriculum, and I achieved a Grade 9 in my maths GCSE with 100% in two papers (and annoyingly close to 100% in the third!). I am also a member of Mensa, a high IQ society.
My aim is to not only develop the mathematical ability of your teens, but to also inspire a new way of thinking critically, catalysing their problem-solving dexterity and deepening their love for the beauty of the subject!
