About Joseph

About Me
I am a qualified solicitor, international project manager, and independent school teacher with over 12 years of teaching experience. I take great pride in helping my students excel academically while also developing their confidence, discipline, and critical thinking skills.

My Teaching Approach:
Most of my students have gone on to achieve top grades — 7, 8, and 9 (A, A*, and A**) — even when they were initially predicted lower marks. My lessons are highly interactive and based on discussion and reasoning. I use an oral, dialogue-based approach where we explore exam-style questions together and talk through answers in detail. This helps students understand *why* an answer is correct and builds their ability to think independently under exam conditions.

I design every lesson around each student’s individual needs and learning style - no two sessions are the same. The homework I set reinforces what we cover in lessons and gives students a chance to apply new techniques with confidence.

Get in Touch:
If you’re looking for structured, engaging lessons that inspire progress and long-term understanding, feel free to contact me to arrange a short introductory call to discuss your goals and requirements.

Before starting, I always request the latest school report, a marked piece of work, or the student’s most recent grade so that I can review their progress before the lesson. This helps me prepare effectively and ensure that every session is tailored to each student’s strengths and areas for improvement.

During lessons, I use the oral tradition - a discussion-based approach where I talk through language and structural techniques, as well as exam-style questions, with my students. This method allows us to use lesson time productively, encouraging students to think critically, express their ideas clearly, and develop strong analytical and writing skills.

I prepare thoroughly for each lesson and design activities that match each student’s individual needs. Every student receives homework linked directly to the work covered in class. This enables them to practise new techniques, consolidate their learning, and demonstrate progress. I then review their work to provide feedback and guidance on how best to continue improving.

Literature: I cover a wide range of texts, from classical literature to contemporary novels. Please feel free to contact me if you’d like to discuss support for a specific text or topic.
