My Summary
About Me
I am an experienced English Teacher with 10 years of tuition experience. I have recently set up my own business where I am employed on a contract basis during the days although I do have some daytime avaiIability too.
I live with my husband, my 20 year old son who is a Land Surveyor and my 17 year old daughter who is at Reading College and our pets. I have, in previous years, taught Drama (for which I am also qualified), History and Religious Studies as I have a joint honours degree in English and Victorian Studies and a Post Graduate Certificate in Education for English and Drama.
My Experience
I have 25 years of teaching experience, many of which are in local schools and I was Head of English for 8 years. Over the years I have privately tutored Independent School Entry Examinations for 11+, 12+, 13+ and Common Entrance ,11+ and 12+ exams, KS2 English and Maths, Year 6-7 transition skills, KS3 English, GCSE English and English Literature for a variety of exam boards and A' Level English Literature.
I have worked at various times with SEN students with a whole range of issues from dyslexia and dyspraxia to ASD, ADHD, ADD and SEMH. I set up and ran the gifted and talented and Aim Higher programmes at one of the schools where I taught when it was a new Government initiative.
I really enjoy teaching as a profession and very early on, I realised that it is my duty to treat every child in my care as if they are my own child and that they are getting the teaching and learning experience that I would like my own children to have. It is my goal to ensure that every child becomes the best that they can be and that every child gets the best education which is appropriate to their individual needs.
