I am a highly experienced business teacher and senior examiner, currently teaching at an independent school where business is one of the most popular subjects at both GCSE and A Level.
I thoroughly enjoy teaching and I am passionate about my subject. This, along with my approachable and supportive nature enables me to develop good relationships with students and help them gain their full potential.
As part of my role as a teacher, I run support sessions for students which involve both small groups and 1to1 sessions depending on the individual needs. In doing so, I am able to tailor my sessions to the needs of the students and ensure that they gain the support they need to progress.
I am currently a senior examiner for AQA and have experience of two other examination boards. As such, my role requires me to lead a team of examiners through the examination process and provide advice and guidance to them to ensure that they thoroughly understand the mark schemes presented to them. As a result, I have extensive knowledge and understanding of exam specifications and how to focus on the demands of the question and develop a logical chain of reasoning to gain maximum marks.
My approach to teaching takes into account the individual needs of the student. I feel that it is important to first determine the level and learning style of the student so that future sessions can meet their needs.
As a tutor, my role will be to help students understand new topics as well as address any areas of confusion. Through the use of past papers we will analyse examination questions and case studies to help ensure that they feel confident when entering an examination.
Laura has been tutoring my daughter for business A level for a term and I would recommend her without reservation. She is proactive in ensuring the curriculum coverage is well balanced in her sessions, and provides homework to re-enforce the lesson if required. She is an engaging teacher and has given my daughter a good deal of confidence in her approach to the subject. We are delighted to have found her and will be continuing regular sessions with her until the exams
Laura has been an excellent teacher for my daughter with her A level business. It has made a huge difference to her ability having the extra help with the content and regular practice with exam questions. Laura has been reliable, kind and patient. We would definitely work with Laura again.
Tutor response
Thanks so much for your feedback. Olivia was an absolute pleasure to work with.
I would highly recommend Laura for A'level Business tuition. She really helped my son gain confidence in the subject and was brilliant at explaining and helping him understand how to approach and answer the questions. We were very pleased to have found her!
