About Berni
I came into teaching 40 years ago, working as a class teacher, then Head of PE, Deputy Head and Head. I have always tutored and have a student-centric approach.
My aim is to build students' understanding and confidence and to maximise their potential. I have considerable positive feedback from many parents that I can share, to demonstrate the value I have been able to add. Just ask!
My lessons are for the student and I make it very clear that I am there for them; this can be repeating information, breaking elements down into understandable sections, explaining the same idea in different ways and offering many tips to cement learning and memory along the way.
My aim is to work the student hard in a caring way, that empowers them and still enables them to enjoy the process!

I am an (early) retired head teacher with over 35 years' experience teaching and tutoring in both the State and Independent sectors. I have a very wide range of experience - from Nursery, Primary, Secondary and Adult Education. *I have taught almost all subjects in the Primary sector as well as the core subjects in Secondary schools, in addition to teaching English and Classical Civilisation at A Level and teaching English and Classical Studies to adults. I have consequently tutored in many of these areas also and have a particular strength in Independent Schools' entrance exam preparation and Study Skills - the latter enabling improved learning and understanding.
Lessons are typically 1 hour long, approach is adapted to student's age and needs.
I believe strongly in empowering students, discovering how they learn best and building strong relationships with them and their families. I am very patient and will often try a variety of ways to ensure learning and understanding are secure; my maxims would be 'Learn the Play Way' - so enjoying sessions is a key factor in making progress - and 'Work hard, Play Hard' - work comes first! I will always feed back to parents/adults at the end of sessions and advise when support materials or other changes would help.
