About Debra
I am a mother of 4 children with a wealth of experience.
I have been a teacher/tutor for all of my working life and could not imagine doing anything else.
I worked mostly as Head of Social Sciences, teaching A level Psychology and Sociology. I spent some time as Deputy Head of Sixth Form so can help with personal statements for UCAS.
I also have over 30 years continuous exam marking-having worked for OCR, AQA, CIE and IB. Currently, I mark for the IB and CIE and am a Team leader for the IB.
As an experienced examiner, I am able to offer exam skills help. I have also delivered to trainee teachers on ‘Theories for learning’ for over six years, so have at my disposal varied approaches to teaching and learning.
Currently, I work as a private tutor during the day, delivering tailored lessons to students with a Health and Care (EHCP) plan, whose needs cannot be met in a school or college setting who often have an Education Otherwise Than At School (EOTAS) package. I have worked with various ages from 6 up to 23 years and needs ranging from Autism with pathological demand avoidant profile, anxiety, ADHD, ARFID, sensory processing disorder, limited vision and hearing, dyslexia and dyscalculia. I have successfully delivered functional skills, GCSEs in maths, psychology, sociology and business studies and A levels in psychology and sociology to EOTAS students.

I’m very student-centred and focus on the skills required for success at GCSE and A level in social sciences. These skills include interpretation, application and evaluation, which require students to think. This is too often overlooked in some schools as the focus is delivering content (which is the easy part)! I am happy to deliver content too but approach this in a succinct manner per topic area to condense and aid revision. Students have a nasty habit of revising what they already know (as this instils self-esteem-who can blame them), I’ll get them to focus on what they don’t understand with me, in a stress-free environment. The student’s wellbeing is paramount.
