About Finnbar
I am a qualified English Teacher, having taught English Literature and Language to a wide range of students from years 7 to 11. I have also helped GCSE students to surpass their target grades through online tutoring. I have recently graduated from the Teach First programme with distinction, which has a mission of ending educational inequality in the UK by training great teachers and putting them where they're most needed. I taught for two years in a secondary school in Yorkshire. I have also taught at an international school in Spain, where I got on so well with the students that I ended up tutoring some parents in speaking English as well! My most recent school uses the AQA English GCSE, so I am very familiar with this specification. However, I am confident in teaching the variety of skills needed to approach most specifications used in the UK. Just ask! I love teaching in a classroom to a large group, and thrive on the spontaneity of having so many people focused on the same idea or task. However, I have realised that there is just as much satisfaction in coaching one student 1 to 1. I often teach students who I wish I could teach by themselves to see what they could really do with undivided attention. For this reason, I have turned to tutoring so that I can help people master a variety of English skills.

My intention for my lessons is to encourage independent mastery as soon as possible. I would provide support for you to practise the skills you're looking to improve but I recognise that the aim of tutoring is to improve to a point of not needing it as soon as possible! I follow the tried and tested method of good quality models, joint practice, then independent practice

Finnbar has been tutoring my son for around 6 months now. Finnbar helped him to reach and also go beyond the grades he was predicted in his English GCSE. His confidence has also improved drastically! Finnbar now tutors both of my sons. I cannot recommend him enough.
