Rebecca Kinnarney -
Tutor and Academic Coach

​

I am a private tutor with 20 years experience tutoring Maths, English and French. I tutor Maths, English and French for 11+, 13+ and GCSE, English and French up to A Level. I have worked with students in London, Buckinghamshire and, in recent years, nationwide. I have always had success with entrance exams and have had children accepted at: Aylesbury Grammar School, Aylsebury High School, Sir Henry Floyd Grammar School, Wycombe Abbey School, Westminster, Highgate, City of London Boys and Girls, St. Paul`s Boys and Girls, Haberdashers`, Channing, South Hampstead High, St. Edward`s Oxford, Millfield School, Eton College, etc.

 

I have experience of working with children of all abilities and pride myself on tailoring my programme to each child`s individual needs. I have particular experience and interest in working with children with a wide range of learning challenges such as dyslexia, dyspraxia, dyscalculia, Aspergers syndrome, to name but a few. Through my individual approach to each student and my focus on building confidence, I have always had excellent success with my students. This year I have received comments from students such as `For the first time in my life, I can sit down to a Maths exam without being terrified.` This, to me, is success.

​

Over the past 2 decades, I have worked a great deal with students who have been going through a period of home schooling for a number of reasons. The focus for these students is always to maintain their school work, build confidence, fill in any gaps in their learning and, most importantly, move towards a return to the school environment.  

​

I have experience also of teaching English as a Second Language and fully understand the challenges this presents, particularly for the adult learner, trying to fit in studying around a full-time job and life!
