Teaching Style:
I start by ascertaining the specific requirements of my student. Do they need to develop their skills or increase their knowledge? What result are they aiming for? What is the time scale? Then I consult the specifications and focus on the main areas which we will need to address. My style is to help the student to develop a thorough understanding and profound enjoyment of their subject, without taking my focus off their exam targets.
