Mrs Campbell's Tutoring

I've been quiet here for the past few months for a couple of reasons. One reason involved falling down a ladder last summer and destroying my heel bone and ankle joint (cue lots of learning about fractures, treatment and unintended consequences 😱) and one was considering where to go next with tutoring...

As my own children reach the age where we need to think about formal qualifications, I have decided not to take on any more tutees, so that I can focus on supporting them. I will probably complete one more academic year with my remaining tutees, by which time I would have been doing this job for nearly 14 years! 😍

It has been an immense privilege to work with so many young people and help them achieve their full potential. Thank you for welcoming me into your homes, for all the cups of tea and the gifts over the years. I have successfully got this beautiful plant through the winter and its blooms serve as a reminder of this brilliant job. 🌸

HUGE congratulations to Sophie, Nathan & Tilly for their FANTASTIC results today! All your hard work paid off. 🙌🏻

And, just like that, my Year 11s are completing their final GCSE exams! Thank you for my beautiful floral gifts. 😍 I will miss seeing those families every week. Wishing the young people all the best with their results and college courses. 🤩

I often have discussions with my tutees about how history affected the English language. I've learnt some more about it now.

Wishing the best of luck to my Year 11s with their English and Maths exams, which are starting this week. I hope the first few exams have gone well.

Wishing all my tutees and their families a very restful and reconnecting Christmas. See you in 2024!

So lovely to see one of my ex-tutees living his best life. 😍 https://m.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=829404519189235&id=100063590832428

And so, another academic year has finished. Wishing all my families a well-deserved summer break. ☀️⛱️🌊

Wishing my Year 10s a fun and interesting week of work experience. 😁

The months of the year: Gah, I've been getting it wrong! I thought it was July and August that misaligned the names of the subsequent months. Nope!
