About Me

*CHECK CV FOR MORE DETAILS* Experienced private household Governor / Manny / Tutor / SEN Carer, international music and English teacher. I'm flexible and happy to look after multiple children and help with school subjects, sports and school pickups / drop-offs etc.

I am a dedicated, adaptable and experienced educator and childcare professional with a genuine passion for helping children learn, develop and reach their potential. I take a warm, friendly and encouraging approach, while maintaining clear boundaries and a structured environment. I can teach to a high standard, and I tailor my approach to suit each child’s individual learning style, abilities and interests. I plan thoroughly in advance, provide regular feedback to families and continually adapt my teaching to ensure steady, measurable progress. My additional training further supports my ability to meet the varied needs of children and families.

I believe children learn best when they feel comfortable, supported and genuinely interested in what they are doing. I aim to make learning enjoyable through varied, practical and engaging activities, while encouraging children to ask questions, build confidence and become increasingly independent. I am firm but fair when it comes to boundaries and discipline, and I value open, honest communication with parents. Outside of education, I bring a broad range of interests and experiences that can enrich a family’s lifestyle, including music, sport, travel, outdoor activities and fitness. I am trained in piano, have a strong sporting background, have travelled extensively and have experience working with UHNW families, giving me the ability to contribute positively to both the educational and wider family environment.

Above all, I take great pride in building positive relationships with children and seeing them grow in confidence and ability. I am organised, proactive and always aim to stay ahead of my responsibilities, preparing detailed plans while remaining flexible when family schedules change. I believe my combination of educational expertise, childcare-focused training, varied life experience and approachable personality allows me to become a trusted and positive presence within a family. My goal is not simply to teach, but to encourage children to enjoy learning, discover their strengths and develop the confidence and skills they need for the future.
