About Me

I tutor Maths and English through primary up to KS3, support students with SATs preparation and readiness as well as 11+ Maths. I have been tutoring Maths and English both online and in person for 5 years to young people and adults.
I love tutoring and working one to one or in small groups with students. Tutoring allows the student to learn at their own pace, ask questions away from the social pressure sometimes felt in the classroom and to grow in confidence whilst improving their skills.
I tailor every lesson to the needs of the student and their learning style. I like to bring learning alive through fun, engaging and practical activities as well as make it meaningful to everyday life.
I focus on building a child's confidence and unpicking the barriers to progression as well as presenting clear explanations of the concept and skill we are working on with plenty of opportunity for practice.
I offer feedback to parents at the end of the lesson and set homework as required.
I also work with home educated children.

My Experience

I am a qualified teacher with over 20 years of experience teaching in schools and colleges. Then following demand from parents locally to tutor their children, I started up a small business alongside my part-time teaching job as a tutor five years ago.
I have now tutored face to face for three and a half years and since March 2020 online from home. I teach separate Maths and/or English lessons with some clients asking for Maths/English combined lessons. I have worked with children from 6 - 16 years old and a range of abilities and needs. My main area of expertise is with those children who struggle the most at school and need some one to one support to build their confidence and boost their skills.
In addition I have experience in teaching for KS2 SATs, 11 +, Functional Skills and foundation level GCSE.
