Our Tutors
Hello! I am Jan. I have been working in education for over thirty years. I have a Post Graduate Certificate in Education specialising in literacy and a former member of and Tutor for The Hampshire Dyslexia Association. I have an enhanced CRB and DBS check and was a Chairman of the Bench as a Magistrate in Hampshire. My work with children with challenging behaviour led me to qualify and specialise as a Reading Therapist.
I set up my tuition consultancy 25 years ago, providing one-to-one tuition with the simple aim of teaching all children to read. News of what I was doing soon spread and my results and approach mean that I always have a waiting list and demand continues to grow. I continue this work alongside working extensively in schools teaching children to read as well as advising and training staff in my techniques.
I am passionate about reading and teaching children to read. I understand how life-changing being a ‘reader’ is and the difference it makes. I decided to share my techniques with others and published The Sounds Good Reading System.
I also teach Maths and English from Key Stage 1 to Key Stage 4 including GCSE. I particularly love teaching GCSE Literature and watching pupils grow in confidence and self-esteem.
I’m Jonathan, an enthusiastic Maths tutor based in central Basingstoke, offering 1:1 tuition for primary and secondary students up to GCSE, AS and A-level. With over 23 years of teaching and subject leadership experience across Primary, Secondary and Special education, I bring both expertise and a calm, patient approach to my tutoring. I hold a PGCE with QTS and a NASENCO qualification, and I’m passionate about helping every learner grow in confidence and achieve their best in Maths.
​
I understand that every student is unique. For those who find Maths challenging, I build strong relationships based on understanding and engagement, creating lessons that are enjoyable, encouraging and tailored to individual needs. For motivated learners, I focus on problem-solving and reasoning skills to stretch their abilities and prepare them for exams.
​
I’m particularly experienced in delivering GCSE booster sessions — helping students reach that all-important pass boundary or push towards top grades. For learners who benefit from structure, I can design a clear, progressive programme of work between sessions.
​
I am fully DBS registered and currently have good availability for the coming months. My goal is to provide a supportive, trustworthy and motivational environment where every student can thrive in Maths. I’d be delighted to discuss how I can help your child build confidence and achieve success.

My name is Gabrielle and I live in Basingstoke. I have an MA degree in Classics from the University of Cambridge.
I have been a tutor in English, French, Latin and Ancient Greek for the past four years. I am available to teach at all school levels, from pre-GCSE to A-level and am up to date with the current syllabus for each subject.
​
My philosophy in teaching is to make the learning process as enjoyable as possible! I strongly believe that each child has the ability to benefit from learning a language in its rich multiplicity of areas: from grammar and pronunciation to reading out loud and the written word. Many children can benefit from a deeper understanding of the shared structures of many languages, including all of the languages I teach. This makes the learning process more interesting and provides ample outlet to satisfy the natural curiosity of children.
​
I also believe that there should be a balance between formal and informal methods of teaching a language. When I grew up, we used to spend the majority of the time on detailed knowledge of grammar. While I think this gave me a very good formal grounding in learning languages, I also find it important to read actual stories in a language informally. This brings the whole process to life and I have had great success in engaging pupils’ imagination by following this method. All my pupils acquire a detailed knowledge of the texts they study and their historical and cultural context.
I am a flexible tutor and always seek to understand the strengths and needs of each pupil. This means that my pupils can benefit from extra time spent filling the gaps in their knowledge and helping them to be more confident, which I find is a large part of learning a language and studying its literature.
Hello! My name is Alice and I live in Hook.
I have a first class BA (Hons) degree in American and Canadian Studies from the University of Birmingham and an MA in American Literature and Culture from the University of Leeds.
I specialise in teaching English Language and Literature at all school levels, from primary to A-Level, and am up to date with the current syllabus and exam board criteria for these subjects.
I gained experience in teaching at university and have been tutoring on a one to one basis for over 6 months now, with lots of positive feedback! I also have experience in tutoring for school entrance exams.
I believe that an understanding of English is crucial to every child’s education. My aim is to boost the self confidence of my students so that they can all achieve their potential. I personalise every session of tuition entirely to each student’s needs, facilitating and adapting to their own specific learning style and ability. I am an approachable and enthusiastic tutor and I aim to make my lessons an enjoyable, engaging, and open space, as well as a place of trust.
I hope that together we will help your child to feel more confident and able in their learning of English.
Hello, I’m Michael an experienced mathematics tutor with a track record of helping students secure the grades they need in GCSE. I have been in the shoes of an exhausted GCSE mathematics marker at 11 O'clock at night just squeezing in that last paper; so adept at coaching students in writing effective legible answers. My expertise also includes assisting students aged 11-14, perhaps in large classes who are not making the progress they want and desire to move up sets. I have sharp assessment skills to pick up on missing basics and coaching in retrieval and the need for maths practice and am also able to engage with all students whatever their specific needs
Hello, I am Peter. I am currently teaching maths at Coxgreen School in maidenhead (teaching year 7 to 11 students)
I am passionate about mathematics. My enthusiasm for the subject puts me in an ideal position to inspire young students to develop the commitment to learn mathematics, and do very well at it. My previous work experience within the HM forces (Royal air force) gave me an opportunity to work in large and small teams, developing teamwork and an excellent work ethic. I believe the skills I have developed such as adaptability, commitment, compassion and discipline stand me in good stead to be a great maths teacher and to inspire young adults.

I first started tutoring while at university and have continued to share my passion for maths ever since. With over 30 years of professional experience helping businesses grow and succeed, I now bring that same focus on problem-solving, analytical thinking, and mentoring into education. My goal is to make maths not only understandable, but enjoyable — helping each student gain confidence, curiosity, and lasting success.

My name is Mike and my family and I have lived in Sherborne St. John for more than 20 years..
I have a BSc(First Class) in Inorganic Chemistry from the University of Liverpool and also a D.Phil from the University of Oxford.
During the last 12 months I have been an online tutor with a GCSE student, focusing on Physics and Chemistry. I can cover all aspects of GCSE Science and also GCSE French, having lived in France for a number of years.
Through this recent experience and also tutoring my own 2 children, I have good exposure to both the Edexcel and OCR exam syllabuses.
Each session will be centred around a particular topic, with specific aims and objectives in mind. I aim to ensure that the student is fully engaged and participating, and the delivery format tailored to their particular learning style. I make regular use of check points and test questions to ensure that the student has fully understood the previous topic before moving on. As we progress through the course material I also like to focus on exam technique, working with the student to structure their answers in the most appropriate manner.
