Who are we?
Hi, I’m Amy, I’m a qualified Science teacher (Chemistry specialist) and have been tutoring online for over 5 years now. I love teaching and after tutoring alongside being in the classroom for the past few years, I’m currently taking a break from the classroom to be with my baby. Tutoring has been more than just a job for me since I started running my own business but even more so now as I am able to continue to do what I am passionate about whilst being home to be with my daughter during these first few years of her life. She’s currently experiencing her first festive period which even though she can’t talk or walk yet, her little personality is beginning to show through.
As a teacher, the aspect of science and maths I see students struggle with the most is application of their knowledge. This skill becomes especially important of course when thinking about GCSE/A Level results and college/university places. My group classes and 1:1 sessions aim to equip students with the skills they need to succeed in their exams and go onto what they want to without their grades holding them back. I feel like it goes without saying but I’ll say it anyway, I can’t guarantee results because at the end of the day the student needs to put the work in too. I can however, help with honing exam technique, answering any questions on topics you are unsure about and work with you to achieve the best possible grade you can.
Why are we called Smarty Sausage?
If you’ve ever met a dachshund owner, you probably know all they talk about is their sassy, needy, little dog and I’m no different. We have two miniature dachshunds called Albie & Rosie and if soul dogs actually exist then little Albert is mine! He has infiltrated just about every aspect of my life so why not name the business after him!
Hour long zoom sessions with multiple students offered twice weekly. These are either focussed on AQA combined science, or AQA triple science. Sessions are flexible with content steered by the students in order to make sure they get help where they need it.
What we offer
Group Sessions
Hour long zoom session with just one student. It is a totally bespoke lesson that can be tailored to suit your individual needs - whether that’s content, exam techniques, or help with revision. These sessions can be for A-Level chemistry, GCSE science, and GCSE maths and can be tweaked based on exam board.
