Information about Alan
I tutor English and maths for 11 Plus and English as a Foreign Language (EFL).
For a career change after many years as an IT consultant I qualified in TEFL and CELTA to teach EFL, also PTLLS (Preparing to Teach in the Lifelong Learning Sector).
I have a friendly approach to tutoring and like to adapt my style and content to suit the students` needs. I aim to establish a feeling of trust and mutual respect, so that we can work together on their particular goals and ambitions.
My basic rate is £35 per hour but I can give discounts for advance bookings.
I am happy to visit your home but I usually charge extra for travel time.
I am a native English speaker and enjoy creative writing, reading, listening to music and going to concerts, and yoga.
Availability: Weekdays, daytime and early evenings.
Willing to travel: 1 miles
Experience: I taught EFL and GCSE English Language to teenagers in schools and colleges and I taught adults on ESOL (English for Speakers of Other Languages) courses.
Now I just teach privately, one-to-one, at my home or at the student`s home.
As well as adults I tutor children for 11+ and secondary school entrance tests, covering maths, English, verbal and non-verbal reasoning. I have helped several with their entrance exams to local secondary schools.
I live in Northwood but can travel in the NW London area.

Feedback For Alan (15)

Alan was absolutely incredible,my daughter felt at ease while she has been tutored with him. She felt much confident when she got her 11+ training with Alan. Alan is so patient in answering and goes into in detail explanation up until the child completely understands the subject topic. I would highly recommend Alan.
Tutors Response :
Thanks, Aarthi. Your daughter is a joy to teach and she has grown in maturity and confidence in her exam technique.
