About Lucy

I am a fully qualified and licensed, BC High School teacher working at a CAIS accredited, independent K-12 school in Shaughnessy, Vancouver. I hold 5 years of experience in teaching both English Language and Literature to High School students in England & Canada. Professional Background: I hold a First-Class Honors Bachelor's degree in English Literature from the University of Reading, UK. During my time there, I served as the President of the Athletics Team, juggling multiple part-time roles, including tutoring primary school children, waitressing, and representing the University as an ambassador and school's mentor. Teach First Leadership Development Program: Driven by a commitment to address educational inequality, I successfully completed the Teach First Leadership Development Program (2019-2021). After five weeks of intensive training, I took on a full-time teaching role, obtaining Qualified Teacher Status (QTS) and Newly Qualified Teacher Status (NQT) on the Early Career Framework (ECF). Continuous Education: Eager to enhance my knowledge, I pursued a Postgraduate Diploma in Education (PGDE) and later a Master's in Education, receiving a Distinction for both the dissertation and the MA as a whole. My research focused on inclusivity and diversity, specifically in the context of English Language Learners (ELL). Global Perspective: Recently relocating to Canada, I contributed my expertise as an Educational Consultant in Vancouver. Here, I edited and proofread Ivy League college applications, while providing personalized guidance to students in refining their reading and writing skills. I have a sound understanding of both English & Canadian curriculums. If you are seeking a dedicated and dynamic English teacher with a proven track record of success, I am eager to bring my excitement for teaching and learning to every tutoring session.

Teaching Approach:

My tutoring approach is centered on encouraging a dynamic and engaging learning environment. I believe in tailoring my methods to the unique needs and learning styles of each student. By combining progressive teaching techniques with active learning, I aim to make learning both effective and enjoyable.

Teaching Methodology and Techniques:

I employ a student-centric methodology that encourages active participation. Through discussions, hands-on activities, and real-world applications, I aim to make complex concepts more accessible. Visual aids, multimedia resources, and interactive exercises are integral to my teaching approach, ensuring a comprehensive understanding of the subject matter.

Typical Lesson Plan:

Each lesson begins with a clear outline of learning objectives, establishing a roadmap for the session. I incorporate a mix of introductory discussions, targeted activities, and problem-solving exercises. Regular checkpoints allow me to gauge understanding and address any challenges promptly. I prioritize flexibility, adapting the lesson plan based on the student's progress and feedback.

What Sets Me Apart:

My commitment to personalized learning sets me apart. I take the time to understand each student's strengths, weaknesses, and goals, allowing me to tailor my approach accordingly. I create a supportive and inclusive atmosphere, promoting a positive learning experience. Additionally, my practical application of concepts and real-world examples helps students see the relevance of their studies.

Intended Audience:

My tutoring services cater to a diverse audience. Whether assisting high school students preparing for exams, undergraduates navigating challenging coursework, or professionals seeking to enhance specific skills, I adapt my teaching to meet the unique needs of each individual. I am comfortable working with students of various degrees, levels, and classes, and I specialize in addressing specific challenges such as language barriers or learning disabilities.

In summary, my tutoring philosophy revolves around adaptability, engagement, and personalized support. I strive to not only impart knowledge but also instill a lifelong love, and excitement, for learning in my students.
