About Me
Hello everyone! My name is Megan and I am a friendly, motivating and fun tutor with over 10 years experience in the teaching field making me an oldie now, but a goodie!
My biggest passion in life is helping others grow in confidence, to enable them to see their potential and achieve their goals. I will do everything I can in my power to help you achieve. We will work together as a team and together, with a little nudge from me, we will make sure you can succeed. It might not happen over night, but we will find a way to get there together.
I have a background rooted in the creative and vocational sectors, but I also have a lot of transferrable skills and I have taught over a wide variety of academic subjects too. I specialise in Creative Writing and Art & Design, and I bring a hands-on, student-centred approach to every session.
I’m also experienced in teaching a wide range of subjects including Citizenship, PSHE, Health & Social Care, Childcare, Physical Education, and Travel & Tourism. On top of that, I’m highly skilled in delivering Employability Skills/ Work Experience—perfect for learners who are preparing for the next steps in their education or career.
I pride myself on being approachable, patient, and adaptable. My goal is to create a relaxed, supportive learning environment where learners feel heard, valued, and motivated to achieve their full potential. No question is a “stupid question”, so please always ask.
Let’s make learning meaningful, creative, and fun!
My teaching style
I understand that everyone learns differently and I am very experienced in delivering a variety of different learning styles. Together, we will build a positive, working relationship. I believe that us getting to know each other first is essential for your teaching and learning, in order for you to feel positive and have a happy experience, and one that you can be comfortable in.
I don’t believe in “death by PowerPoint” when it comes to teaching, and I will always cater the lesson in a way that is going to work for you and your specific needs. I always ensure the lesson is enjoyable and well structured, so that you know exactly what the aim of the session is and what your learning outcomes are, which I believe is key to keeping you motivated, otherwise what is the point?
We will always re-cap at the end of the session to see what you have learnt, and I will always re-cap with you at the start of our next session. Don’t worry if you can’t remember everything, but this will help you to learn how to retain information and help build your confidence in the subject you are studying.
A strong value that I hold is having mutual respect, and as long as we have that, we will be able to work together and achieve great things. I will always create a relaxed and comfortable environment with minimal distraction, to ensure you get the most out of your learning, so put that phone away for me and let’s get started!
I look forward to working with you!
My past experience

My Proudest Achievements
Watching my students achieve and seeing how much they have developed and progressed. Watching a learner go from having no confidence at all, to then seeing how much they can achieve in a year is really rewarding. It is amazing how much your confidence, behaviour, knowledge and skills can change and grow if you have the right people around you, to bring out the best in you.
