About Hollie
I am a current gap year student who will begin studying for my English Literature Undergraduate Degree in Autumn 2021.
Within my gap year, I am currently working as a Teaching Assistant in schools for a variety of age groups and so am familiar with lesson structure and planning, engaging and varying methods of teaching and various aspects of the curriculum. Much of my time in my job role is spent communicating with students on a 1-2-1 or small group level in order to best support their academic, social and emotional growth. Due to the nature of my day job, I am also in possession of a valid DBS certificate.
Although I am new to tutoring, I was apart of one of the first cohorts to study the latest GCSE specifications within the 9-1 grading system. This led to me forming an in-depth familiarity with the syllabus and mark schemes in order to support my personal study. I achieved a grade 9 (A*) in English Literature and a grade 7 (A) in English Language at GCSE, alongside 8 other qualifications at grade 9-7 (A*-A). I also studied English Language and Literature at A Level, achieving an A*, alongside grades A* and A in two other essay based subject.
Accompanying this, I have experience in terms of lesson planning and teaching from being a Student Leader for a musical theatre enrichment scheme. Within a team of eight, we handled the complete running, planning and teaching of weekly sessions. Most importantly, I value education as an avenue for opportunities for success, but also as an opportunity to cultivate interest, therefore real-world application is a driving force behind what I teach in order to aid understanding.

My goal is not only to supplement class teaching through virtual sessions to aid in achieving grades that the student can be proud of - whatever their personal goal is - but I would also like to give personalised sessions that truly focus on cultivating knowledge and confidence. As I plan my lessons, I centre my teaching around the strengths, weaknesses and goals of each individual student and am not afraid to try new things to engage students of all ability levels.
I care about providing an opportunity for academic progression, but I also care about cultivating confident and fearless learners who are engaged and passionate. This means not only growing their knowledge, but providing a place where students are not afraid to get things wrong as mistakes are the best learning opportunities.

After seeing Hollie complete her GCSEs and A Levels, its been easy to see her passion for English. Hollie is confident in her own abilities and is very easy to talk to, thus she is able to communicate and explain concepts excellently in detail. I believe Hollie's lessons will engage her students, allowing them to develop their understanding of any problem areas. Quick to adapt lesson plans if a concept hasn't stuck, Hollie is a tutor you can rely on to give you brilliant advice.
As Hollie’s father I am ideally placed to offer an insight into attributes that I believe make her an excellent choice in assisting with the enhancement of her subject matter, English.
From an early age, Hollie has had an excellent work ethic along with a determined approach to achieve her goals; she is deeply knowledgeable in her subject, always reading, writing, and researching she is ideally suited to tutoring. She was in a year group that was one of the first to undertake the new GCSE structured marking scheme and achieved excellent results. At college, she again excelled in obtaining the highest A-Level results and is planning to further her education by undertaking an English degree at a Russel Group University next year. Hollie enjoys greatly helping and assisting others, she is caring, thoughtful and will do everything she possibly can to ensure you are happy with the service she offers.
Hollie is a fantastic worker, with a great work ethic. She won't stop until the job is done. I believe she's a fabulous tutor, and will continue to share her extensive knowledge of the English language for as long as she can.

I charge the same rate for all ability levels. My rates do take into account both the cost for hourly tuition, as well as covering personalised lesson plans and the creation of resources.
I offer the first session with me for free. This is a 30 minute session intended to discuss intentions, goals and the current level of the students. This also is where I can provide more information on what sessions with me entail, answer any questions and begin to open a line of communication between students, parents and myself.
In terms of cancellations, I require a minimum of 12 hours notice to be able to cancel the lesson without any fee. This means that the lesson can be rescheduled without any extra cost using the payment for the original session. Receiving payment for a lesson indicates that the lesson will take place, therefore I put this cancellation policy in place to ensure both parties are clear as to when online tuition is taking place.
