Why me

“Every student has the potential to achieve top results

Throughout my teaching and tutoring career, I have witnessed a recurring theme amongst students: they believe they are not capable of achieving above their predicted grade.

Most of the time, this is not the fault of the student, but the result of any number of factors both within and outside their control.

I know that, with the right instruction and a bit of hard work, any student can exceed their predicted grade. I am proud to say that I have proven this repeatedly with my students.

Getting Results

Don’t just take my word for it; my results speak for themselves. All my private students improve by at least two grades. Are you predicted a C? If so, I will help you achieve an A.

Knowing the Exam Boards

I have experience teaching all major exam boards in the UK, including AQA, Edexcel, OCR and WJEC. I have access to a vast range of exemplar exam answers and an acute understanding of how they are marked, so you can get the best results on exam day.

Believing Every Student Has the Potential to Achieve

Combining excellent interpersonal skills with my passion for education, I inspire and empower young adults to achieve their best examination results while developing skills for fulfilling careers.

Testimonials

Just a few of my happy students and parents

“I cannot speak highly enough of Katherine and the invaluable support and guidance she provided to my daughter during her A-level Business Studies. Katherine possesses an incredible depth of knowledge in the subject matter, and her passion for teaching is truly infectious. Katherine’s teaching style is both engaging and effective, tailored perfectly to my daughter’s learning needs. Katherine not only helped my daughter grasp complex concepts but also instilled in her a deep understanding of the practical applications of business theories in the real world. Her commitment to ensuring her success was evident through the personalised attention she gave to her progress, the additional resources she provided, and the way she went above and beyond to clarify any doubts she had. Moreover, Katherine created a positive and encouraging learning environment that fostered confidence and motivation in my daughter. Her patience, dedication and encouragement played a pivotal role in her achieving outstanding results in her A-level Business exams. I am incredibly grateful to Katherine for the transformative impact she had on my daughter’s academic journey. Without a doubt, I highly recommend Katherine to anyone seeking exceptional tutoring for A-level Business Studies. Thank you for your unwavering commitment to excellence!”

“Katherine is a consummate professional who works to the individual’s requirements. Katherine has a very positive, ‘can do’ attitude, which is both reassuring to parents and a huge confidence boost for the student. We recently had a situation where our son, currently studying for his A-levels, had a stream of supply teachers for most of his first year. Katherine helped him regain his confidence and knowledge base, and gave him a road map of where he needed to be by certain times. He was also given lots of resources to aid him with revision and study plans. As parents, we can’t thank Katherine enough. She made us feel very positive, she is a very safe pair of hands and we will definitely use Katherine again.”

Niamh — UKStudent

“Katherine is a fantastic teacher of Business Studies and Economics. My son Kabir has been taking online lessons with her for over a year now and, with her guidance, he is doing very well in school and topping his class. Katherine’s lessons are always well planned. She keeps the student well informed of expectations and guides them in answering exam-style questions. Prompt feedback is given on homework submissions. I cannot thank Katherine enough for her efforts and recommend her highly for her dedication and wonderful teaching.”

Jayshree — UAEParent

“Katherine tutored me for AS-level and A2-level Business Studies, as well as teaching me AS-level Law outside school. I found these sessions extremely useful, as anything I found challenging was helped with immediately. Katherine gave me so much support and guidance on exam technique. She informed me about the particular components of the courses that were essential to revise. What was most enjoyable and helpful about these sessions was that Katherine enjoyed teaching the subjects and was constantly engaged, which meant I was too. This helped massively, as it inspired me to do well and achieve fantastic grades. Katherine also helped me to achieve excellent grades in my other A-levels, as I was able to use the exam technique she taught me in those subjects too. I would highly recommend Katherine to anyone looking for an excellent and enthusiastic tutor.”

Max — UKStudent

“Charlie has always had the utmost respect for Katherine for being the best teacher he has ever had! This is mirrored by my own opinion. She was always very honest with Charlie and got the best out of him. She has been missed. Katherine, thank you so much for your help with Charlie. He has really appreciated the sessions with you and definitely sees that it can be achieved with effort and work. He would never have achieved the grade he did without your help and encouragement. It’s obvious that even the most challenging students can have the best brought out of them with the right teacher.”

Stephanie — UKParent

“Katherine is really friendly and approachable, so it is super easy to ask questions. She’s very knowledgeable about the subject and helped me massively through my A-levels. I would definitely recommend her to anyone who needs extra help.”
