About Simon
I don’t want to blindside you with lots of jargon about ‘targets’ and what predictors say but here it is…… “Coaching, questioning, and effective modelling and feedback, as well as metacognition and study skills are all essential to the process of learning”. What this actually means is I want you to get the best grade possible and will pass on all (well as much as you can take) of my experience to “get you through, with the best grade possible”. To this end, it’s about meeting your individual needs. Therefore, I don’t have any one single approach but I’m totally flexible to your needs. This may include revision techniques, understanding command words, knowledge on specific topics that you struggle with, geographical skills and obviously the NEA at A-Level.
My tutoring will be adapted to suit your learning style and needs. I will support you in every scenario - SEN; enforced Gap Year / re-take / improving grades; re-starting after ill health; moving school; moving country; home study. Remember my goal is to get you the best grade possible, create a love of Geography and hopefully have some fun on the way.
After the first lesson I always give you the option to walk away if you didn't enjoy the lesson and learn anything as I want to offer value for money.

I have now gone part-time to concentrate my efforts fully on your exam success having been teaching 11-18 Geography for 30+ years. I’ve taught around 1400 GCSE students in that time and around 500 A-level students and have tutored over 300 students over the last 8 years with over 90 five-star reviews. I am married with 3 children. I have been a Head of Humanities; Geography and a Senior Teacher over many years. I have a passion and love for Geography that I can’t wait to share with you. You will get loads of high-quality resources and revision ideas to get you the exam success ‘we’ want as well as save you time from creating your own revision notes e.g. case study notes.
I am a specialist in UK and international A-Level as well as all GCSE and iGCSE syllabuses. I am currently a Senior Examiner and Moderator for AQA and OCR and a Lead Examiner for AQA INTERNATIONAL A-Level (formerly known as a Chief Examiner - i.e. the person who writes the exam paper). I tutor online to provide support for a wide range of students, particularly 11/13+/scholarship, Year 10/11 GCSE and Year 12/13 A-level students. I also provide fully planned sessions to support remote learning.
I have a wealth of examining experience, starting way back in 1992 with S.E.G (now AQA). I have moderated coursework for all exam boards and am currently a senior moderator at A-Level (NEA) for OCR and AQA. I have been a Team Leader since 2005 for OCR and currently provide INSET for OCR schools and teachers as a subject expert. I am also currently a senior examiner (TEAM LEADER) for AQA and OCR currently marking the A-Level paper 1 (physical) for both boards. I also team lead AQA paper 3 and have past experience of both Geog1 (2004 – 2016) and Geog3 (2005-2016). I was the Principal Examiner for GCSE coursework from 2009 – 2014. I have also marked Unit 1 and Unit 2 GCSE exams for AQA, iGCSE and the OCR and the SDME (now paper 2). This gives me a clear insight into what the examiners look for and the essential skill here is to understand what they want with a clear understanding of the importance of command words for academic glory. In summary I’m your man if it’s improved exam techniques that focus on the actual question being examined, as well as content-led revision specific to your syllabus and needs.
Unlike many other tutors out there I ONLY tutor geography and have over 400 students that I have helped - but please note, I'm new to this platform.

Simon was an excellent tutor for geography for me. This is because, due to his experience, he was able to give me pinpoint insight into what exactly I was doing wrong and guide me in a way that a teacher in school either doesn’t know how to or doesn't have the time. For geography, I think this is so useful because the content isn't necessarily hard, but when it comes to exam questions, small differences tailored to your style, which he can provide, can make a world of difference for marks. He is nice to be taught by, and I would, of course, recommend him.
Brilliant tutor. Very knowledgeable and experienced. My son very much enjoyed the lessons. I wouldn't hesitate in recommending Simon.
Simon has been fabulous. Really helped my son with his A-level geography. Gave him loads of confidence and lots of useful exam technique tips. Very highly recommend
Very helpful especially for question focus and exam technique
Great geography tutor! Has lots of great advice on exam technique and some great resources to support each unit. He’s also very good at marking practice questions and making sure you hit all the right points.
Amazing when it comes to helping with exam prep!!!
Simon was a fantastic help for A level Geography. His knowledge of exam technique really helped me to hit high marks on my essay questions. A lovely man as well. - Tom
Thanks for all the help this year, Simon. The lessons and resources you have given me have been great, and you have really helped the exam technique to click - I used to dread 20 markers... Your help has been invaluable and has given me confidence for the upcoming exams - all the best.
Simon has been amazing, hes tutored me for over 4 years aswell my sister all the way through GCSE to A levels. He has been incredibly helpful in getting both of us to grade 9s in GCSE and achieving A/Astar in A level. Simon is very useful in both going through questions and learning exam technique to skilfully and efficiently answer questions. Overall amazing and highly recommended.
