Emily Chatterjee Painter

A dedicated professional with more than twenty years experience of teaching Sociology. A caring and successful teacher, manager and author with a proven record of success evinced by student results consistently above national averages. I taught in a large sixth form college, where I spent ten years as a curriculum manager. I have taught thousands of students across a wide range of abilities on both A level and GCSE programmes. I have also spent several years teaching online supporting learners from 14- 62 years old!

Having completed my Sociology degree at the University of Leicester, I then did my PGCE in Manchester. In addition to my teaching and previous management responsibilities, I have written a blog about Sociology and I have served on the executive body of the Association of Teachers of Social Sciences through which I met lots of wonderfully eccentric sociologists!

I am a published author with Harper Collins publishing house for whom I have written an A-Z introduction to Sociology (Key Concepts in Sociology) I found writing a book to be a rewarding experience and I got the opportunity to delve deeper into the subject I love. I also taught English in the South of France for one year before completing my PGCE.

I have extensive training in both safeguarding and mental health. I look forward to supporting you to achieve your goals.
