About Me
Hi! My name is Willow Lloyd Payne, a History graduate from the University of Exeter. I grew up in the United States, completed the International Baccalaureate, completed my undergraduate degree in the United Kingdom, and currently work at the University of Exeter Business School as a Student Experience and Success Mentor. I believe that every student has the potential for top marks, and work hard to make sure student have all the resources and support they need. I have 8 years of childcare and teaching experience, and genuinely enjoy teaching and helping my student achieve their goals. In my free time I enjoy reading, playing board games and exploring the coffee shops and restaurants of my local area. I am a hardworking and competent teacher and I hope that you will consider me for a tutor.
My teaching style
I prefer to work collaboratively with students in order for me to design a teaching program that works for every different individual. I believe a learning plan that balances both creativity and academic learning allows for a well-rounded and better prepared student.
My past experience
Yes, I used to be a tutor in high school for both elementary and middle school students in all subjects. I also have experience working and teaching children as a Programme Director and Counsellor for Beaver Cross Summer Camp for 4 years. My current job involves working with University students teaching study and writing skills.
