My name is Nicola and I am the Area Advisor for Home-School Tutoring London West. Having taught in local schools and also tutored for Home-School Tutoring for some years in this area, I am delighted to be the Advisor and Tutor Manager for this region. I also am the Area Advisor for the Twickenham and Richmond area.
The areas we cover include Ealing, Acton, Chiswick, Hammersmith, Westminster, Paddington, Kensington and Notting Hill. I manage a team of tutors and we love helping students of all ages, aiming to develop positive relationships with students and parents alike. I am regularly registering more tutors to join my local tutor team of good teachers and tutors. Together, we offer students personal tuition in many different subjects and levels of tutoring and other special learning services too. We aim to provide our clients with tutoring that helps build confidence and progress, and which is suited to a student’s individual learning style. It is important for the student and tutor to connect and ‘fit’, so learning and engagement can be enabled.
I myself am a qualified teacher with a background in Art, English and SEN. I have been teaching and tutoring for over 20 years and have worked in both mainstream and special education, primary and secondary. I am also a parent to a teenager. I have worked in alternative education settings such as a children’s hospital, and provisions for children who are too ill to attend school or who have been excluded. Throughout my varied work I have become passionate about teaching 1:1 and have seen the progress that can be made with individualised learning when personal learning styles are identified. I live in Isleworth and grew up in Ealing so know both my areas well.
I also know, as a parent, how difficult and stressful it can be to observe your child struggle or appear to be making little progress, whatever their age. My own son has had some wonderful teachers in our fantastic local schools and it has been great to observe his development through them identifying his needs.
To tutors or teacher in this region: I look for tutors who are committed and passionate, so that we can appropriately match our tutors to the needs of students, we need more to join our team. If you would like to become one of our tutors please do contact me or complete the enquiry Form. We are needing more tutors in all subjects and of all levels.
To parents and all clients: if you are looking for a tutor please get in touch. We help our clients and students best when we know more about the tuition that is needed and the aspects of learning that need to be tackled, so when you contact me or fill in the initial enquiry form on this page, please let me know as much as possible about your specific needs or requirements, so that I can recommend the most suitable tutor(s) to you.
I look forward to hearing from you.
