Information about Ruth
I am a fully qualified English Teacher (both Language and Literature) at Key Stages 3, 4 & 5 with a proven track record in state secondary education and private tutoring, based on the East Sussex/Kent border. In my roles as a part-time English Teacher in a school and a private tutor, I have consistently raised the achievement level of my pupils, often by several grades.
I have a BA Honours degree in English and American Literature. I spent many years working in the city as a solicitor, before following my true vocation of teaching, where I have found my niche. I qualified via the Schools Direct Scheme and obtained my PGCE from the University of Sussex.
I have recently completed a Master of Arts in Education at the University of Sussex with a focus on encouraging reading to improve life chances. I am very enthusiastic about my subject and I am keen to support pupils who need extra tutoring for a variety of reasons. I have experience with tutoring SEN pupils and Looked After Children.
I am passionate about teaching, and enjoy seeing the difference I can make to childrens lives. I am a highly enthusiastic, knowledgeable and well-prepared teacher with a calm, patient approach and I inspire my pupils with a love of English, giving them the confidence to do well in their exams.
