Suzanne: Richton Park tutor

Certified Tutor

I have been a Senior Tutor at a school for autistic children, specifically students aged 12-15, where I worked for the past 1 1/2 years, teaching students on a one to one basis. I am now currently a Private Tutor and in my spare time work with refugees.

In April 2017 I was an English teacher working in Greece in a refugee camp, where I taught English classes to children and adults at different levels (I.e. beginner/intermediate/advanced). These lessons included learning how to write, read and speak in English.

Before this I was the Maths teacher at an independent school in Newcastle for the past 1 year, where I specifically taught foundation GCSE maths to students who had been excluded multiple times from other schools.

I have taught primary and secondary school students in the UK and overseas which has involved teaching classes and individuals on a one-to-one basis either basic/intermediate/advanced English, English Language, English Literature and Philosophy.

I am also a fully qualified chartered accountant (ACCA), gaining my professional qualification working at PwC in London as an auditor for 3 1/2 years.

I also play piano in my spare time having passed Grade 6, and teach beginners piano on both a casual and grade basis.
