Critical Thinking Tutors : 1-1 Critical Thinking Preparation

Hello, my name is Simon Hackett , and I’m an experienced tutor, Director at 4 Life Education alternative education provision, and ex Deputy Head at a vocational education setting. I’ve spent many years working with children and teenagers who haven’t quite found their place in mainstream school—and I know from experience that with the right support, the right approach, and a bit of patience, every young person can thrive.

I specialise in working with children who may have additional needs, struggle with behaviour or confidence, or just learn better in a different environment. I teach a range of subjects, including Maths, English, Construction, Sport, and life skills, and I always adapt lessons to suit the individual child. Whether your child needs help catching up, finding their confidence, or re-engaging with learning altogether, I aim to build a positive relationship first, because learning starts when a child feels safe, understood, and supported.

As a parent myself, I understand how important it is to know your child is in the right hands. I bring a calm, consistent, and encouraging approach to each session, and I keep communication open with families every step of the way. My sessions focus not just on education, but also on building your child’s confidence, self-esteem, and resilience. Every child learns differently, and I’m here to find the way that works best for yours.

A dedicated, experienced Educator and Facilitator with a strong background in project management, report writing, international and digital education. My passion lies in helping individuals overcome challenges and achieve growth and success. With a blend of leadership expertise, coaching skills and planning, I am committed to empowering others to reach their full potential. I maintain enhanced disclosure on the DBS update service for current and prospective roles. I’ve worked in school and online settings, plus developed and delivered programmes. As such, I understand end to end course cycles, assessments and individual learning styles.
Currently I am a Specialist ASC Mentor supporting Autistic Spectrum students online and in person (one to one, weekly sessions). This is highly individual in scope, depending on student needs, also covering academic, social, wellbeing and organisation support.

Outside of tutoring, I have taken part in photography exhibitions in Seoul, mainly of documentary photography and graphic design.

Hi, my name is Piraveen and I’m currently studying at Queen Mary’s after graduating from St George’s University of London. If you need any help with your studies in terms of Medicine or just the sciences I would be happy to help and get you the best results possible. I have attended QE Grammar School since Year 7 which is a very selective school and it pushed me beyond what I thought I was capable of. I will do my best to ensure that students achieve the best they can and to go beyond the scope of what I’m teaching as well if necessary. I will ensure that you will not only improve definitely at what I am teaching you but that you will do the best that you can. I have scored highly on my BMAT, UCAT and my GCSE’s, AS and A Levels so I know how hard it can be to attain high results and what it takes. I will provide engaging targeted lessons focusing on the parts where students struggle on but still remaining thorough to guide my students every step of the way.
