I have been a Maths teacher and private contractor supporting schools in the teaching of the new GCSE, A-level and Further Maths material. I am now studying for my PhD in an effort to further my goal of helping students understand the specialist content in Further Maths.
I love teaching mathematics to students as it allows me to impart my knowledge. Importantly, 1-1 tutoring allows me to tailor my approach and methods to suit the need individuals. Seeing a student succeed gives me a great sense of accomplishment. Having been in Nottingham all my life I feel a deep passion for helping it and its students thrive.
When not teaching, I can often be found walking around the beautiful countryside or in the gym, training towards my goal of dead-lifting 200kg.
I am a retired professional teacher of Maths with 27 years of experience in the teaching of Maths at KS3, KS4 and Statistics in KS5. During my career, I enjoyed the responsibility of being a Form Tutor and my responsibilities within the Maths Department was KS3 data manager and at KS4 Coordinator for the intervention of Year 10 and 11 students who were under-achieving in Maths. This required the development and delivery of targeted lessons during school and in after-school sessions, tailored to the needs of each individual.
I currently enjoy tutoring GCSE students, imparting my knowledge and experience in my subject.
In my spare time, I enjoy playing badminton, pitch and putt golf and going to the gymnasium. I also enjoy walking. Additionally, I enjoy visiting air displays and aircraft museums.
After graduating with a degree in Bio-Medical Engineering, I decided to qualify as a maths teacher. I am currently employed as a Maths Intervention Tutor at a well-established college in Nottinghamshire.
As an intervention tutor, my key role is to identify the needs of my learners and plan sessions using a combination of innovative and traditional approaches to enable them to reach their potential. I also find that my friendly, patient and calm character assist me in enabling my students to overcome barriers.
Outside of the classroom, I am an avid baker who uses creativity to give a twist to classic recipes!
I am a secondary school maths teacher in Nottingham with a keen interest in helping students access maths. I always try to create links across the curriculum to aid in retention of information/techniques to help get towards the essential grades 4/5 and above.
Personally, I am very passionate about my job as I feel that it makes a real difference to the lives of the young people I work with. I love seeing the young people grow in confidence and their sense of achievement.
Outside of school, I lead Duke of Edinburgh expeditions and work for NCS. I frequently train in the gym for personal satisfaction - I find that it helps me relax after a long day at work.
My name is Will and I have just moved into the area of Nottingham and more specifically West Bridgford. I have just completed my NQT year in Leicestershire before I moved this summer. I studied Primary Education with Maths Specialism at Canterbury Christ Church University. Therefore, I have spent my entire time at university into researching the education of children and the best approaches to tackle the different needs of children.
Although my experience and education was catered towards primary education, I have previously tutored pupils at secondary and GCSE level with good success.
I find that I can connect with pupils of secondary school age well due to having a teenage brother myself and so I know about their common interests and learning styles.
I love sports and play football and badminton in my spare time. In my picture is my dog Basil who certainly takes a lot more attention than he deserves!
I have been teaching Maths in local secondary schools for over 15 years and I also have recent experience working at a local further education college delivering maths to students who needed to re-sit their GCSE.
Alongside this, I have tutored a number of students at KS2, KS3 and GCSE level.
I enjoy working one-to-one with students and seeing their confidence grow as I can spend time going over topics in different ways, which they do not always have time to do in a classroom. I have been praised for my calm, adaptable approach which allows my students to feel comfortable asking questions they may not otherwise feel confident in doing.
In my spare time, I enjoy running, walking in the Peak District with my family and finding inventive ways to use all the produce from our allotment!
As a qualified teacher of Maths, I have worked in both secondary and primary schools from Cornwall to London. I have experience in tutoring maths in both groups and 1-1 sessions and specialise in KS3 and GCSE Maths.
I am a very easy going individual, who ensures that each session is tailored to a student’s individual need. This I believe is essential for them to progress in a way that is both suitable to them and will maximises progress. Having supported many students through critical exam years, I have been lucky enough to have shared many rewarding experiences on results day.
Outside of tutoring, I am a passionate surfer and swimmer who enjoys everything to do with water. I also have experience in Corporate Finance which can always add a bit of flavour to standard Maths.
I have taught in both the UK and Spain over the past five years and I believe that a personalised approach to learning is key to inspire your child to succeed. Wherever possible, I always make sure that the content of my lessons is related to the interests of the learner that I am working with.
As a previous Maths coordinator, I am passionate about the subject and currently work with a number of GCSE and Functional Skills students. Moreover, my First Class Science degree leaves me well placed to teach GCSE Biology and Physical Education. I can also teach Biology up to A Level. I would be happy to work with your child online or at your home to help them to become a happy and confident learner.
I am a fitness fanatic; I enjoy coaching athletics and playing tennis with my son. I love spending time with my young daughter too - we are frequently visiting the park and library throughout the week.
I have lived in Nottingham for a little over 6 years but I was born and grew up in Italy. Before I became a full-time tutor, I worked as a secondary maths teacher (including under the new GCSE systems). What I love about teaching maths one to one is seeing the confidence of each child increase as they become more and more able mathematicians.
Additionally, I also tutor Physics (I have a degree in this subject) and I am able to be a conversational partner for anyone who would like to practise their Italian.
In my spare time, I play American Football for Derby Braves Women’s and, whilst at university, I became the first woman to ever play American Football for the University of Nottingham, paving the way for other women to do the same after I graduated.
I have over twenty years of experience in teaching English Literature in post-16 and adult education, including at GCSE, A Level, Access, and undergraduate level. I have also worked as an examiner at GCSE and A Level for the AQA exam board and have a strong understanding of what markers look for in exam answers.
I specialise in essay organisation, textual analysis, understanding exam questions and deep subject knowledge. As a tutor, the most rewarding thing I do is to help build a student’s confidence in their own ability. This really is the foundation for successful learning.
Outside of teaching I am a published novelist with six novels to my name. As well as writing, I love reading, crafting and painting.
I am here to support students from KS3 all the way to KS5 (Year 7 to Year 13) in their English Language and English Literature studies. I am a qualified teacher of English. I also have a degree in sociology/psychology.
I have worked as an examiner at GCSE and have a strong understanding of what markers look for in exam answers. I provide practical learning strategies adapted to you and I deliver them with pride and authenticity. I am told that I am a calming presence in the learning environment, and I am very clear on what is required to be successful.
English is all about communication and culture. Teachers are here to help your child build a solid foundation of effective communication. Teachers are here to talk about how culture has influenced the way we communicate. There is so much to talk, read and write about!
I am currently an English secondary school teacher with 16 years experience of teaching both Language and Literature to 11 to 18 year olds.
I have taught a range of abilities so far in my teaching career with some students going on to be English teachers themselves. I am experienced in teaching students with SEN backgrounds and EHCPs. I enjoy giving one to one support as well as whole class teaching and I am insightful into the needs of individual students in order to help them achieve their full potential in English.
I love my subject and particularly enjoy one to one tuition which allows students to flourish.
I am a qualified English teacher and have recently moved to Nottingham with my husband and young son. After graduating from the University of Cambridge with a degree in English, I trained as a secondary school teacher and have experience of teaching young people from Year 7 to sixth form, including preparation for GCSE and A-level. I particularly enjoy working with students individually to help them use their unique abilities to unlock their potential and achieve their goals.
Alongside my teaching career, I have worked in educational development and fundraising, which has given me an insight into how English is used beyond the classroom, for instance in marketing campaigns and web-based communications. I am an avid reader of both fiction and non-fiction and love to discover new literature through teaching. My other interests include running, cooking and exploring the countryside with my family.
I am an empathic, caring and relaxed individual with a good sense of humour who is confident personally and professionally. I have twenty years of experience teaching English and literacy skills as well as educational management experience in further education with learners from a variety of backgrounds and cultures.
I have taught English from entry through to level 4 and have experience teaching young, older and adult learners. My approach to teaching is learner centred which means I work closely with individual learners to identify their specific needs to be successful. Furthermore, I am also qualified to assess and teach learners with dyslexia. Also, I have experience teaching English as a second language and History.
I have been teaching for nearly five years and have worked at a number of secondary schools in Nottingham. I have experience of teaching all secondary age groups, including A-level English Language. Additionally, I have plenty of experience of working 1-1 with children to aid their studies in this subject.
I am a successful teacher, with progress, achievement and student well-being at the forefront of my ethos. One of my biggest strengths is forging productive working relationships with students, creating an atmosphere whereby students are keen to achieve and also enjoy learning at the same time.
Outside of work, I like to read, swim, do judo and eat food, but not all at the same time!
I’m a newly qualified English teacher. Although I haven’t been teaching for many years, I have experience in teaching all secondary year groups. I also believe that I can relate to students, and can use this to create tuition that is tailored to an individual’s interests and needs to make lessons more engaging.
I love reading and like to promote that in my students by finding books that are suited to them based on their personal interests, which can often differ from those available in school.
Outside of teaching, I love spending time with my dogs, cooking and going to the gym!
I became a teacher to make a difference by providing the best educational experience. This motivation has led to a successful 17 years of teaching.

I am a passionate Historian and have taught History at Key stage 3, GCSE and A-level, English Language and English Literature at Key Stage 2-3 and GCSE, Politics at A-level and Sociology and R.E.at GCSE. Using my previous business and finance background, I have taught Business Studies and Finance at GCSE and A-level.
Building upon prior knowledge and the needs of individual students, I develop their knowledge, skills and understanding and how to apply this. I use a range of teaching methods to engage and challenge my students. I believe in building strong professional relationships with my students building their confidence to master the subject.
I have a very active family life with two teenage boys.
I have been teaching English for over ten years, including classroom teaching and tutoring one to one. I am enthusiastic about English as a subject and have strong knowledge of the curriculum, both at KS3 and KS4. If you are looking for GCSE preparation, or perhaps you would like some skills building at KS3, then I can create a programme of learning for you or your child.
In the initial tutoring session, I assess current knowledge and skills and then build on this, pinpointing areas of need as the sessions progress. I am confident and experienced in delivering GCSE and Functional Skills English qualifications, both with AQA and Edexcel exam boards. I am a patient, kind, and friendly teacher who is passionate about supporting the progress of learners. When I'm not teaching,
I enjoy swimming, going to the theatre, reading, and learning British Sign Language.
As a qualified teacher of English, I have taught both GCSE Language and Literature in North Yorkshire as well as Nottinghamshire. I am currently completing my Masters in Education, focusing on how we can adapt the English curriculum to the needs of different contexts in the UK. I worked as a private tutor in Nottingham and taught English in an infants school in India prior to becoming a qualified teacher.
I am deeply passionate about using the subject of English to enable my students to develop their own voices, whilst providing them with the tools to analyse the voices in our cultural landscape.
If I'm not teaching, I am probably either bouldering, reading, hiking or cooking.
I am a strong practitioner currently based in Nottingham who enjoys teaching English Language and Literature across Key Stages 3 and 4, including a number of GCSE groups.
During my career so far, I have been responsible for some elements of primary transition and developing the quality of teaching and the curriculum within the English department. I also have four years experience as Head of KS3 English.
I really enjoy being a teacher and find it very rewarding. I enjoy promoting reading to students as this is a crucial skill for success in my subject.
I have over 15 years of experience teaching English Literature and Language, working particularly with students at key stage 2, 3 and GCSE level. My expertise in English Literature and Language draws on my experience as a Head of English, a Lead practitioner and as an examiner. I have worked with many different exam boards with the main ones being AQA, OCR and Cambridge iGCSE.
I have worked in several Secondary Schools in the West Midlands and a few years ago I moved to Nottingham with my family. I am a friendly, patient and calm professional with a positive and encouraging approach in supporting students to achieve their best. I always aim to create an environment in which students feel motivated, inspired and in control of their own learning.
I tailor my lessons using teaching strategies which best suit my students and passionately believe that all students succeed if offered the correct support. The feedback received from both students and parents alike has always been positive.
Outside of teaching I love travelling, cooking and keeping fit.
I have twenty five years of experience teaching students in the UK. In that time, I have been a Teacher, Lecturer and Physics department lead lecturer for students aged 5 years to adults.

My goal is simply to enable students to understand nature through the subject of Science. Pursuit of this goal has provided me with a learning journey requiring expertise in the subjects of Mathematics, English, Physics, Chemistry, Biology and the History of human development.
When not at work I love looking after my family, DIY, gardening, keeping fit and online gaming.
I currently teach Science, with a specialism in Chemistry, at an OFSTED Outstanding rated secondary school.

I have taught a number of students who have gone on to study at Oxford and Cambridge, and also students who have studied Medicine. I have held a number of roles including Curriculum Co-ordinator within Science, and have been a mentor for both trainee teachers and Newly Qualified Teachers.
I believe all students should be involved in deciding what aspects of course content they want to revise. This can then be supported by ongoing assessment and feedback to ensure progress is being made, and any areas of misconception are revisited.
I hold the following professional qualifications:
Masters: MA Education (Nottingham) 2018
PGCE Secondary Science: Chemistry (Nottingham) 2013
Degree: BSc Chemistry (Loughborough) 2008
Following on from a career in IT, I completed my PGCE (distinction) in 2011, have my QTS and completed induction year, and have been teaching and tutoring physics since then. I have developed a large number of workbooks that I share with my students and have written a physics book, which can be found on Amazon called GCSE and iGCSE Physics: Revision and Theory.
My approach to the required practicals was described by the AQA monitors as “best practice” and the physics department (me) was given an ALP rating of 2 of 9. I love teaching physics, especially, but also the other sciences. I have a friendly and approachable demeanour. I am patient and non-judgmental, which allows students to learn without pressure.
I have two amazing kids. I am passionate about physics and can often be seen immersed in astrophysics and cosmology books, or “Physics Today”. I enjoy reading, travelling (especially off-the-beaten-track), meeting new people, playing games, and, of course, spending lots of time with my family
I am French and I have been in Nottingham for over 15 years. I teach French at all levels from children to adults. I have lots of experience teaching French from scratch, but also to learners who struggled to learn French in school or with other tutors.
I love my language and I love teaching so I spend a lot of time developing homemade games and lessons. With my methods, the learners start speaking French quickly and the lessons seem effortless and fun.
I am a keen comedy improviser and every week I co-run an improvising jam. We make up stories on the spot, on stage in front of everybody and I use these skills to teach French. I like to make my students feel free to speak and to explore the language.
I have been teaching for almost 7 years now. I started doing bits of tuition when I was at university. Immediately after graduting at Nottingham Trent with a BA HONS in French and Spanish, I taught English at l'Université de Franche Comté in France. I then came back to the UK and worked in exports and then decided to become a Secondary School teacher. I currently teach at a Nottinghamshire Secondary School. In my teaching career so far, I have taught primary school students, secondary students, university students and adults.
I enjoy teaching because I love to help others and pass on my love for language learning. I understand that language learning can be difficult as I have been through it myself! I am extremely approachable and as a result, form great relationships with students.
Outside of work, I like to read, write, explore new places, play football and sing.

I have twenty years experience in education with outstanding success in adding value to students. I specialise in teaching Business Studies and I have also run my own business, so I can offer my students real-life examples of how businesses are run.

I teach (and most importantly enjoy!) a variety of History topics from the Cold War to the Witch Hunts of the 16th Century. I regularly go on exam board training to ensure my knowledge and skills are up to date.
I am happy to tutor for a specific course or to help students explore a topic beyond the textbook. I find helping students to enjoy History and being able to explore and discuss it in greater depth one of the most rewarding parts of my work. As a head of Year, the pastoral side of student development is as important as the academic development of students.
Outside of school, I enjoy playing cricket, going to the gym and reading.
I have been teaching Religious Studies for over 20 years, including GCSE and A Level.

I have taught all 3 Modules of the new A Level – Philosophy, Ethics, specialising in the Developments of Christian Thought module. I have also worked as an Examiner at GCSE and A Level and have been involved in the development of both exam papers and markschemes, so I have a really good understanding of what is required in exam answers to gain the highest grades.
I have taught students of all abilities, including those with SEN and EAL and have had the pleasure of seeing students go on to study Religious Studies and Theology at University. I have a passion for my subject and the opportunity it gives students to think more deeply about Philosophical and Ethical questions. It is pleasure to see students grappling with complex ideas as their confidence and understanding develops.
Outside of teaching, I love to travel, both in the UK and overseas. I also enjoy cooking, reading, walking and going to the gym.

I have a very active family life with two teenage boys.
I have been teaching Psychology, Sociology and Health and Social Care for the past five years at both GCSE and A level and BTEC levels 1 through to 3.
I am very passionate about the subjects I teach and aim that every student gains not just a better understanding of the topic but the confidence to further explore that subject. One-to-one guidance and support can give the student a greater depth of knowledge and the more confident ability to tackle exams and coursework with clarity of knowledge.
I am happy to cover all syllabuses although i have mainly taught AQA and OCR and will cover all core topics and exam techniques. I am happy to target specific areas of knowledge as well as focus on exam questions and evaluation of topics. I have worked with students with additional learning needs and with SMSEH and behavioural needs also.

I am friendly and approachable and like to think I go the extra mile for my students! I often provide help outside of scheduled sessions without charging additional fees.
The new linear examinations are proving to be quite challenging for a number of students, and centres, but my students consistently achieve high grades so I know I am preparing them well!
I would like to think that I have a student centred approach to tutoring and like to work hard for my students. I like to create individual study plans which are made to suit each student in order to support the students that I tutor, and I set regular homework to assess progress.
I am a qualified Computer Science teacher within the Nottingham area and I hold a 1st Class Honours degree within the subject. I always have had a passion for helping children strive and reach their maximum capacity and having worked for many years in the industry programming for the NHS and delivering the curriculum, I decided that I want to pass on my knowledge in a more personal way to the next generation.
Students can find a fun but meaningful lesson being delivered consistently with myself and due to my “get to the know the student” ethos, lessons will become more personalised and relative the longer we work together.
I really do have a true passion and enthusiasm for making sure every child I can influence gets the best possible outcome for themselves and I can’t wait to help you achieve your goals.
I am an enthusiastic and dedicated teacher of Art and Design, with a specialised PGCE in Art. I have over four years’ experience in teaching Art and Design and three as Head of Art. My first teaching post was in a British Overseas Preparatory School in Kenya, where I was Head of Art teaching reception to year 8 Art following the British National Curriculum. After 3 years in Kenya (2016-2019) I returned to UK and joined an independent preparatory school London which is where I currently teach.
I believe that every pupil possesses talents in some aspects of Art, and these deserve to be drawn out and finely tuned - I am committed to discovering every student’s inner artist. I love teaching Art and the benefits that it brings, both academically and socially. I plan my lesson as part of a project, learning key skills and then producing artistic outcomes to be proud of.
In my spare time; I love to travel, to read and to paint and draw people and the wonderful world around us.
