Charlotte
My name is Charlotte, and I am an English tutor at Chellaston Tutoring alongside my teaching at a secondary school.
As a passionate qualified English teacher, I have in-depth experience delivering inspirational English language lessons to a wide range of students of differing abilities from beginner to advanced and from varying cultural and language backgrounds.
I tailor each lesson to my students according to their needs, level of knowledge and personality. In general, I start with going through the fundamental concepts of each subject to ensure a better understanding, even after the material gets complicated. Afterwards, I stimulate the students to think and analyse the concepts with their own knowledge, to ingrain it in their memory. I am an enthusiastic and friendly teacher and it gives me great satisfaction in seeing students achieve their goals.
Here at Chellaston Tutoring, students are welcomed into an amazing supportive learning environment and gain valuable learning experiences from high-quality teaching. Our learning environment is relaxed, friendly and fun!
We are very passionate about teaching and students' success!
