My Summary
About Me
I am currently working in a Primary School in Harold Hill and have 15 years of experience. I have worked across KS1, KS2 and EYFS throughout this time and understand the importance of early support to ensure every child is able to fulfill their potential. I feel that children learn best through active, engaging and challenging sessions and am well equipped to deliver these. I have my own 3 year old boy who I love looking after and teaching through play. We particularly enjoy forest and park trips and hunting for ducks to feed!
My Experience
I have worked as a primary teacher for 15 years. I also manage the reading and phonics across EYFS and KS1 for my current school. As a Specialist Leader of Education for Reading I support teachers across my borough to better understand the development of children's early literacy skills. I have worked in partnership successfully with many other colleagues/settings to raise standards.

We have been using Catherine as a tutor for our daughter for the past few months in order to get her more proficient and confident with her phonics and reading.
We searched for a long time to find the perfect tutor for her and can now say we have found one and that is Catherine.
Our daughter is only 6 so was a little scared by the whole 'tutor learning' but Catherine came around and was great with her. She works brilliantly with our daughter, friendly, relaxed, and very professional.
Her phonics read improved so much from just one lesson her teacher at school asked us what we were doing differently and she changed her book level up after just two sessions with Catherine.
We are so pleased with how she is excelling that we have now asked Catherine to also branch into spelling and writing too as she really enjoys her tutor sessions and the one on one learning is helping her improve at school so much.
If you after a great tutor your child will like then, I highly recommend Catherine.
* I do not know Catherine personally this is a professional review. I found Catherine through www.childcare.co.uk under tutors.*
