About Alison
I have been a private tutor for over 20yrs + working with those from ages 9 to adult. In addition to tutoring I have previous experience of teaching and lecturing at both college and university and also of providing training courses for teachers and teaching assistants. My background in academia gave me experience of research (and lecturing) in the biomedical fields. During this time I undertook research and associated teaching at the Universities of Cardiff, Oxford and Manchester - I ended my University career as a senior research fellow and latterly teaching fellow to focus on full time tutoring, including some college lecturing at A level.

Friendly, approachable and patient with an adaptable/flexible tutoring style catering for individual student needs. Helping to build confidence and subject knowledge and providing advice on revision and exam techniques as well as past paper question practice for those doing key exams.
A particular focus is on exam technique and practice for those doing key exams, though many of my tutees simply want to improve their confidence and school grades.
Every student is different and so there is no 'one size fits all' - in our initial lesson(s) I assess current knowledge levels, determine gaps and going forward, see what's needed for the student to achieve their goals. I help students build confidence and subject knowledge as well as providing advice and guidance on revision and exam techniques and suggesting useful resources available. And, for those doing key exams, past paper question practice, is super important. Key to gaining the best grades is knowing how to interpret questions, spot key words and phrases and read the whole question and consider mark allocation ... as well as being able to interpret mark schemes!
I am familiar with most of the main exam boards - AQA, EDEXCEL, OCR, Eduquas
