Professional Examiner. 20+ years in Education
Alexia brings to JTC Education a wealth of expertise and exam-focused methodologies that can only be attributed to those who have passionately dedicated a career of over 20 years to the teaching of their subject. With a Master’s in Education from the Institute of Education, and an MEd in Educational Leadership, Alexia has taught Geography across all key stages, as well as presently working as a senior examiner for both GCSE and A Level Geography exam boards, and has served as Deputy Head at a prestigious UK school.
Alexia’s contagious passion for geography is rooted in a deep sense of discovery and exploration, but her teaching is always coupled with a sharp focus on exam technique, meeting assessment objectives, and equipping her students with an optimal framework to excel under pressure. Her success stories speak for themselves with one of her students achieving the highest mark in the world for Development Studies IGCSE.
With over 20 years of classroom experience in both State and Independent schools in the UK, Alexia’s fluency and comfort with the nuance of each major exam board has allowed hundreds of students across all key stages, as well as in IGCSE Travel and Tourism and Environmental Management, to benefit from her guidance.
Alexia has extensive experience marking both A-Level and GCSE papers and is currently a Team Leader Senior Examiner for A-Level Geography Paper 1.
Now with more than 5 years working as a full-time online professional tutor, online learning spaces have become Alexia’s new home as she continues to inspire and prepare students worldwide in Geography.
If you are looking for an experienced teacher who is prepared to go the extra mile, then look no further! Alexia is committed to help pupils to achieve their best. She has high standards and aspirations that will surely benefit teenagers pass their A-Level exams successfully.
Alexia is very friendly and considerate. She obviously has large amounts of knowledge and experience. If you are looking to get top grades, I am sure Alexia WILL help. I felt very encouraged and motivated when she was teaching me (which is hard to do for me). I wish that I had more lessons with her before my exams, because she genuinely is a really really good teacher.
I started with Alexia at the start of year 13 as I was struggling with geography specifically physical. She was so helpful and taught in a way I could fully understand. My grade went from a D to an A. I wouldn't have been able to do this without her. I highly recommend to any geography student who wants to improve their grade. Thanks to Alexia I'm off to my first choice uni :)
