Private Tutor in South Northamptonshire
My Summary
About Me
I’m an experienced primary school teacher with several years of experience, having taught in Inner London and now in Northamptonshire. Over the years, I’ve really enjoyed developing my teaching and growing in confidence when leading different subject areas across the school. I particularly enjoy working with Year 6 pupils, supporting them through their final year of primary school and helping them prepare for their SATs. I love seeing their confidence grow and helping them recognise just how much they can achieve.
Outside the classroom, I like to keep active and enjoy running. I regularly take part in parkruns, have completed a number of 10Ks and even a half marathon! I also have a dog called Thor (yes, named after Marvel – I’m a big fan!), who keeps me busy. When I get the chance to relax, I love reading, especially non-fiction, and I’ll always have a soft spot for Harry Potter.
My Experience
I am an enthusiastic and experienced primary school teacher with several years of experience across Key Stage 1, Lower Key Stage 2 and Upper Key Stage 2. Having worked in a range of school and childcare settings in Inner London and Northamptonshire, I have developed the ability to adapt to different environments and meet the needs of a wide range of pupils. I have extensive experience supporting children with SEND and EAL, including pupils with ADD, ADHD, OCD, Tourette’s syndrome, GDD, Autism, Selective Mutism and SEMH needs.
I am currently a Senior Teacher, holding the roles of Curriculum and Assessment Lead and Deputy Designated Safeguarding Lead (DDSL). I also lead Maths and Science across the school, developing engaging learning opportunities and supporting progress for all pupils. These subjects are particular strengths of mine, and I enjoy making learning accessible, enjoyable and effective for every child.
Outside the classroom, I have volunteered for several years with the Scout Association as an Assistant Beaver and Cub Scout Leader, planning and delivering fun and creative activities for young children.
I am committed to developing my professional knowledge and have completed the National Professional Qualification in Leading Teaching (NPQLT), Understanding Autism (Open University, 2020) and training in Anxiety in Children and Young People during COVID-19 (2020). I am also qualified to teach primary school swimming in line with the National Curriculum and hold a Paediatric First Aid certification.
