About Sumantha

*Scroll down for 2019 GCSE results*

Hi! I am a nurturing and friendly ex-teacher. As a full-time private tutor (14+ years), I specialise in SATs, 11+ entrance exams and GCSE. I also teach students who are homeschooled. Please scroll down to see my current student list.

My experience is supported by 6+ years of secondary school teaching, 10+ years of private tuition and 12+ years as an adult trainer.

Please get in touch to see some free video lessons and past student work.

I offer:

- Key Stage 1 & 2 English(support in-line with National Curriculum)
- SATs (English)
- 11+ and 13+ exam preparation (including Tiffin, Kingston Grammar, Sutton schools SET, Eton and St George's)
- GCSE English (mostly AQA), Business St and Computer Sc (Various examination boards)

My combined in-school and tuition experience enables me to fine-tune my approach to individual student needs.

I specialise in boosting confidence, increasing motivation and targeting the development of specific skills.

I’m a passionate teacher who believes that learning should be engaging, not a chore.

*Can I guarantee results?*

I can certainly guarantee an improvement in skills and confidence. In terms of actual results, this largely depends on how much work my students are able to put in.

Having said that, all of my students thus far have seen an increase in their grades.

For instance:

2019 Student 1 (AQA English Language and Literature)
March mock - Grade 2
Final exam - Grade 6 in Lit and Grade 5 in Lang

2019 Student 2 (AQA English Language & Literature)
Dec mock - Grade 4
Final - Grade 6 in Lang and Lit

2019 Student 3 (AQA English Literature)
Dec mock - Grade 3
Final - Grade 4

2018 results:
Student 1 (AQA English Language & Literature):
Predicted Grade2
Achieved Grade 5
1 - 2 hours per week, more during half-term (3 months)

Student 2 (Cambridge Nationals - Computing):
Predicted - B
Achieved - A
1 lesson per week, sometimes 2 (3 weeks)

*Current List of Students*

- 6 x AQA GCSE English Language & Literature
- 1 x Edexcel GCSE Computer Science (Python programming)
- 2 x Tiffin and Sutton schools 11+ entrance exam

Some notes:
- Discount applied for multiple lessons per week
- Due to a large volume of students, I am unable to travel to student houses. Students are welcome to come to me or have online lessons.
Please get in touch for some past student feedback about this if you are unsure whether online lessons will be suitable for you.

About the lesson

Lesson 1: I always advise arriving 5 minutes early so we can all meet and have a quick chat.

Subsequent lessons: tailored to meet student ongoing learning needs and goals.

Homework: usually set every lesson and planned to develop specific skills.

Recommended duration: 1 -2 hours per week.

For English Language and Literature GCSE, 2 hours per week is recommended as they are two separate subjects.

I believe that students benefit from everyone's support so, I always liaise with parents/guardians about student learning and progress.

I have been taking lessons online with Sumantha since September to prepare for my exams that are in December. She works so hard for her students in preparing tailored lessons. I have studied these topics before but with Sumantha, I am understanding them more because she explains using real life examples.

I chose Sumantha by chance from the list of tutors on the Superprof website and she has been an excellent find. She is organised, knowledgeable and reliable, but more importantly, my son feels he's both benefiting from and enjoying her lessons. We would highly recommend Sumantha without hesitation.

I would highly recommend Sumantha as she has been teaching my daughter since Year 8. During this time her confidence has improved, her understanding of key texts such as Mice and Men has increased as Sumantha not only gives lessons on line but also sets homework each week.

This has resulted in my daughter's exam results improving.

A neighbour highly recommended Sam as a Maths tutor but we actually used her for GCSE English. My daughter Jess had missed a lot of school, she was very behind with her knowledge and had very low self-esteem. Throughout the tutoring process, Sam was warm and approachable and extremely encouraging.
Sam has very high standards and pushed by daughter to do her very best in tutorials and with homework. They covered a lot of ground over the few months that they had and I am confident that Jess will have improved her grades when the results come in August.
I would not hesitate to recommend Sam to anyone who is looking for a first class tutor.
