About Tracey Prince
About Prince Tutoring & Tracey Prince
My background began in Folkestone, Kent at the Girl’s Grammar and then on to Southampton to study Maritime Environmental Science BSc (Hons). I spent my early 20s working in a variety of marine biology settings from observing quotas on fishing vessels in the North Atlantic to SCUBA science officer in Cambodia.
I became a fully qualified teacher in 2007 and gained experience working in both primary and secondary schools in Folkestone. I specialised in teaching and learning for the transition from primary to secondary school, as well as teaching science to all ages and abilities, including children with severe learning and physical disabilities.
I particularly enjoy teaching practical science to children in outreach classes or a home-school setting, who would otherwise miss out on the fun side of science. In 2009, I took some time away from mainstream teaching to teach marine biology to a group of children in the Philippines while working as a science officer for a conservation charity.
On my return to secondary school teaching in England I was asked to take up an unusual position teaching year 7s and 8s in a primary-style setting, where I taught them for the majority of their timetable and all of their academic subjects (English, maths, science, geography, RE and citizenship).
During my years as a teacher, I worked my way up to KS3 Teaching and Learning Science Coordinator with a teaching standard judged to be good to outstanding by OFSTED.
