About Sabrina

Hello, I am Sabrina. I graduated as an English teacher from the Institute of Education sixteen years ago. I have since been teaching English Literature and English Language for the last fifteen years. I have been deputy head of English and am now currently working part-time in a secondary school in Surrey. I am passionate about my subject and make a point to share this passion with my students.

I have developed entire schemes of work for my students with an aim to make the curriculum accessible to all students as well as enjoyable.

Over the last fifteen years, I have taught a range of ability classes and students from all backgrounds. I have worked in a top achieving school compared to national average and all of my students have met their target grades as a minimum and often exceeded these. Over the years, I have taught AQA, IGCSE and OCR courses. I have also worked with retake classes and had 100% pass rate.

From experience, I believe tutoring is a two-way process. On first contact, prior to the first session, I find out what tutees would like to work on and how they would like the tuitions to be conducted. Secondly, I also like to analyse a recent piece of work or exam they have completed in order to appreciate their current level of work.

Due to the requirements of the new GCSE syllabus, I invest time in fostering my students’ critical analysis, ability to effectively share their viewpoint, as well as their capacity to revisit what they have written. I believe these skills are critical to achieve the best grade possible and have proven to improve my students’ confidence when entering the examination period. I also attempt to build cross-curricular bridges and show students where and how their improved writing skills could be used to support their progress in other subjects.

Each session is tailor-made and structured to suit the need of individual students. My tuition does not end when the lesson is over, I tend to set homework to ensure students independently develop skills taught during the lesson, and will provide feedback to further progress.

From my past experience as a tutor and my time as a teacher, I pride myself on forming strong relationships with students, and I am therefore happy to respond to questions my students might have between sessions, by email or by text.
