About Maderlin
I'm nerd of the highest order and always have been. I love nothing more than writing some fanfiction as I do love to practise my creative writing skills and as a fan of science fiction and horror this gives me a great audience and sounding board (I also think you should practise what you preach). I am tutoring as, in my current role, I am in front of students a lot less than I have been in the past, only teaching around 16 lessons a week when previously I have taught 22. I love interactions with students and being able to see them thrive so this gives me that alongside my classroom teaching and management responsibilities.

I have been teaching English for 20 years and am currently working as a Director of Communication and Enquiry with responsibility for the English and MFL departments. Throughout that time I have ensured that my students achieve at least their Target Grades and usually much better. I have an outstanding background in taking students with a Target of 7 and getting them to a 9 through a variety of teaching styles. I use a variety of teaching techniques, from using questioning, modelling responses, reworking questions together and the essential need to plan thoroughly in order to order your thoughts. I come to lessons with a host of resources including booklets, background activities and a strong focus on the cultural capital needed by students to get the most out of the texts that they are studying. I would typically teach a 60 minute lesson tailored to the specific needs of the particular student which I would assess in our opening session with a short baseline assessment and then each lesson would have periods of checking in to ensure that ideas are being embedded. I would also encourage students to send me any essays they have written and had marked or issues brought up in class that we can work on together. I am extremely experienced with AQA GCSE, having built the curriculum taken in my school. I am well versed in all the studied texts for Literature and love teaching the key skills and approaches for the Language paper. I have experience with AQA A-Level Literature with a focus on: A Streetcar Named Desire, The Handmaid's Tale and 1984. I am also available to work with KS3 students who may be struggling with the basics of structure and comprehension in order to give them the confidence that they need.

Having worked alongside Madelin in the past I can honestly say she is an innovative, consummate professional. Her teaching style is dynamic and she knows how to interest and excite her students.
I worked for many years with Maderlin. She is an excellent teacher, hardworking, gets fantastic results and has a great relationship with her students.
