After leaving a career in the Water industry I trained at Durham University as a Science teacher. I am happy to teach Science to KS3 and KS4 and Biology to A level. I have nearly 20 years teaching experience across all abilities and have learnt that each student has individual learning strengths. It is my role to find the most effective teaching strategies that benefit the individual. Above all, I want students to feel relaxed and unaffraid to try new approaches. I consider a mistake as an opportunity to develop and learn. Ultimately I want to build confidence and understanding by providing a context in which new information can be added to a strong foundation.
I have over 25 years experience as a qualified teacher, working mostly at primary level, although in the last few years I have been working as a supply teacher and have worked in secondary schools also. I have also worked as an exam invigilator for GCSE exams. I have experience of teaching year 6 and being involved in assisting children to work towards SATS, both at KS1 and KS2. Additionally, I have knowledge of various phonics programs, including letters and sounds and Read, Write Inc. and have incorporated both when teaching homeschooled children. I have helped young people who are working towards their GCSE's, in Maths, English and the Sciences and have added qualifications in Functional Skills, which allows me to teach adults Maths and English also. I have supported preparations for entrance exams at 11+ and 13+.
