Thank you for all your helpful advice and for the material you provided me with. I still feel quite nervous about starting but also quite excited about the possibilities tutoring offers." "Your help has turned my life around. I'm now doing something worthwhile." "You provided me with some great tips on getting started and I purchased a copy of your book. I'm pleased to say that the business is going well. I have six pupils at present and all are making good progress. The parents are also very happy with the services I'm providing. I am combining this work with supply teaching during the day and working in the local library two days a week to ensure a regular income. I would like to thank you again. Starting tuition is the best thing I could have done after recovering from my illness and your advice and book have been invaluable." About the Author: Graham Woodward. Following his long and varied career in management, Graham became involved in careers advice, training and recruitment and managing an executive recruitment company specialising in business and technical appointments. This led him to lecturing in further education colleges, teaching BTEC and City and Guilds in engineering, maths and science. In 1992 he began to tutor children, individually, in their own homes. This quickly became a lucrative occupation, prompting the formation of his own company. Graham is in great demand; not only to tutor children privately, but also to train people from all walks of life who wish to embark on a new and rewarding career as private tutors. Graham is frequently featured in national magazine articles and the education columns of newspapers.
