Owen
Private Tutor in Harwich
My Summary
About Me
I am offerring a personalized tutoring/homeschooling/childcare service, that is bespoke, child-centred, and suits your famiy's specific requirements. Teaching has been a great career for me and has given me the flexibility to gain amazing skills in educating young people, but also the time to privately tutor in the evening. I love being able to shape the development and growth of my students, and you can have the maximum impact when you’re tutoring. I’m looking to move into tutoring and childcare fulltime, where I can bring together all of my professional attributes; confidence, organization, flexibility, calmness and empathy, to a family that aligns my values of trust, honesty and integrity.
My Experience
I'm a highly experienced teacher of science and gained qualified teacher status in 2009. Although my specialism is in science, through my various roles as a teacher I have gained lots of experience in other subjects too, including literacy, mathematics and the humanities, so I can offer a broad tutoring experience and support your child with homework and also plan for other extra-curricular experiences. I have also worked as a private tutor for 4 years for a single client. Initially this was to support the student to gain entry to his school's triple science course (for which he was successful) and then later to prepare for his science GCSE's. He is on course to achieve grades 8 and 9's.
My Qualifications
I have 17 years experience as a secondary school teacher of science having gained qualified teacher status in 2009. I have 4 years experience as a private science tutor. Within teaching I have an NPQ in Leading Teacher Development and am currently studying for a second NPQ in Senior Leadership. I have also completed a NASBTT level 2 coaching qualification.I have an Msc in Biochemistry and Biological Chemistry from the Univeristy of Nottingham and a PGCE in secondary science from Anglia Ruskin University. I am also a keen runner and have a hold a Leadership in Running Fitness license.
