About Kimberley

I have been a teacher for six years now and I am extremely passionate about supporting pupils with their GCSE in English Literature and English Language. I am an examiner for both AQA Language papers and Pearson Edexcel Language papers. I have experience teaching the AQA syllabus and Edexcel syllabus and I have experience tutoring AQA syllabus and OCR syllabus for both GCSE English Language and Literature. Additionally, I have tutored A level English Literature students. I have a CELTA pass B qualification and a vast understanding of TESOL. Because of this, I have a vast experience of tutoring and teaching EAL students both in the UK and as a volunteer abroad. I want the best for all my students and hope to provide them with a strong skillset to be able to tackle the exams, as well as giving them clear revision strategies to help them when studying independently. I love reading and like to use extracts from articles, novels, short stories that I have read- so students will be exposed to a range of texts in preparation for their English Language exam. Moreover, I want to keep lessons inspiring for students - so I like to take your interests into account when creating resources. I speak fluent Dutch, and French and Turkish at intermediate levels.

About the lesson

I teach according to the needs of my pupils. I determine this through discussions before and during tutoring, practice questions and looking at their ability when it comes to the subject/approaching their GCSE exams. I cater to my pupils' needs; this might mean flexible lesson times, location, adapted and scaffolded resources and support in various areas of the curriculum. I have taught GCSE English Language for Edexcel, AQA and OCR. I have taught AQA and Edexcel English Literature. I am an examiner for AQA and Pearson Edexcel. This allows me to challenge students who are looking to pass their GCSE in English or aiming to reach high level grades. I have a BA(Hons) in Linguistics and a PGCert in Psychology of Language. My PGCE (education postgraduate degree) is in English with SEND. I have a CELTA qualification, so I am qualified to teach English to speakers of other languages - whether that be for the entry exam, to help with school or university courses or to adapt to life in the UK. I am able to teach online, from my home or in your home.

Perfect! My son found the initial lesson very useful! Kimberley is a very patient and responsive tutor. She does seem to have a very good knowledge of the subject and the exam pattern from the initial interaction I have had with her. She provided a lot of useful tips as well. Would highly recommend her.

Kimberley's response
Claire's daughter is eager to learn in our sessions. We have been focusing on revision and new material and she has taken it all in her stride. Outside of tutoring session, I have given her additional material to work on, which she has done to the best of her ability.
