My Summary

My Experience

Drawing on extensive classroom experience, I support children with:
Reception and school readiness
Early phonics and reading
Early writing and literacy
Early mathematical understanding
Communication and language development
Fine motor skills and pencil control
Confidence, independence, and positive learning behaviours
Support for children with SEND and English as an Additional Language (EAL)
Preparation for independent school assessments where appropriate
My approach combines structured teaching with purposeful, play-based learning, creating an environment where children feel secure, motivated, and excited to learn. Every session is thoughtfully planned to challenge and support each child at the right level, helping them build both academic skills and self-confidence.
I work closely with parents, providing regular feedback and practical strategies to support learning beyond our sessions, helping children make consistent progress both at home and in school.
I hold an Enhanced DBS certificate (available to view upon request) and have extensive experience supporting children with a wide range of learning needs, including SEND and EAL. My aim is to provide every child with a positive, nurturing, and inclusive learning experience where they can flourish.
I provide home tuition across the London Boroughs of Barking & Dagenham, Redbridge, Newham, and Tower Hamlets, and welcome enquiries from families seeking high-quality, personalised support for their child's early education.

My Qualifications

I hold a Master's Degree in the Teaching of General Subjects and Qualified Teacher Status (QTS) in the UK.
With over 12 years of professional experience in Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS), I have extensive knowledge of child development, the EYFS framework, and effective teaching strategies that support young children to thrive academically, socially, and emotionally.
I am committed to creating high-quality, engaging, and inclusive learning experiences tailored to each child's individual needs. I also have experience supporting children with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND) and English as an Additional Language (EAL).
For your peace of mind, I hold an Enhanced DBS certificate, which is available to view upon request.
