Professional English teacher with over ten years' experience preparing students for A-level and GCSE exams.

Sean played a key role in our English department. He is a knowledgeable practitioner who takes pride in his delivery of lessons. He is organised, used a wide range of methods in instructing English Language skills and proficient in his use of technology including MS Teams and One Note to teach and engage students and he did an excellent job. Sean is approachable, patient, respectful and always provided students with what they needed to achieve their potential and more.

I am so pleased that you have requested a reference for Sean Kelly. He taught at KD Grammar School Manchester when I was Headteacher and I found him to be an extremely good teacher. In his first year he picked up an underachieving class and by the end of the year the students achieved higher grades than we would have predicted. Mr Kelly is well planned, thorough in his delivery and has the ability to relate with students in a way that inspires confidence. His approach to his work is entirely professional and he has an exceptional record of punctuality and attendance, with regards to his specialist subject his knowledge is extremely good and he has the ability to share it in a way that is accessible to students of varying abilities.

I worked with Mr Sean Kelly for three years, from 2014 - 2017, as his Line Manager. He taught MYP Language Acquisition: English to a range of groups across Secondary and he was also responsible for teaching Cambridge C2 Proficiency to a small group of adults as part of our extracurricular activities programme.
Mr Kelly has outstanding specialist knowledge of the English language and is calm and confident as a classroom practitioner, instilling confidence and reassurance in his students.
Mr Kelly quickly develops a rapport with his students. His friendly and generous nature make him a valuable team member and he is honest and hardworking. Mr Kelly can work without supervision and his resources and assessments are consistently produced to high standards.
I have no hesitation in recommending him for the position he has applied for.
