Emily Morris
I am passionate about education and dedicated to helping students grow into confident, reflective, and independent learners. I qualified as a Secondary School English Teacher in 2021 through Teach First. My primary expertise lies in Secondary English Language and Literature. I believe students thrive when they are encouraged to think creatively and reflectively, making meaningful connections between their studies and the real world. This approach often encourages students to become independent and curious learners. Within my tutoring sessions, every lesson is carefully planned with personalised learning but ensuring students enjoy the process and develop a genuine love of learning. In my spare time, I enjoy Yoga, Pilates and going to the theatre.
Teaching Experience
I qualified as a Secondary School English Teacher in 2021 through Teach First. My primary expertise lies in Secondary English Language and Literature. I led several literacy initiatives, including coordinating whole-school celebrations for National Storytelling Week and World Book Day. This resulted in my promotion to Head of Literacy, where I evaluated reading interventions and developed strategies to strengthen literacy across the school. I also completed a Postgraduate Diploma in Education (PDGE) and Masters in Education degree from Birmingham City University, focusing on creative approaches to supporting literacy development. During this time, I achieved my Teaching English as a Foreign Language (TEFL) certification.
