About Jonathan
- What kind of experience do you have?
I have taught in state and independent schools for 35 years. I have taught to all levels from 11-18 and was Head of English in an independent school for 26 years. I have also examined for over 30 years particularly at A level (28 years). So I have a good idea of what examiners are looking for!
- Do you have an up-to-date DBS (Disclosure & Barring Service, formerly CRB) Certificate?
Yes, September 2016.
- Where and with whom did you train?
I trained at the Oxford University Dept for Educational Studies.
- Do you belong to any professional organisations?
ATL
- Tell me about some of your current students.
I have recently retired from full time classroom teaching where my students were of all abilities. A recent tutee I taught for three months who went on to pass GCSE with a C was someone with the lowest grade predictions when at school. I have taught several recent classes of mixed ability to A level, two gaining A* last year. I enjoy teaching those whose aim is a C at GCSE as much as those needing an extra polish for the highest achievements. A willingness to learn is the most important requirement. I always look for students' strengths while challenging them to believe they can do better and providing a clear structure for them to achieve in writing.
