I am a qualified and experienced primary teacher and have worked as a tutor full time for the last three years. My position before this was as an Assistant Head in a primary school. I have a wealth of experience having taught children with a range of different needs and from various backgrounds. I have an up-to-date knowledge of the Primary Curriculum and both the Key Stage 1 and Key Stage 2 SATs. I also have experience of working with SEN children. My aim is to help children fulfil their potential by teaching them in a supportive, enthusiastic, fun and engaging way. I take great pride in the delivery of sessions and in children's work because this not only promotes a sense of achievement and satisfaction, but also plays a strategic part in children's learning. I work with children who attend school and also those who are being home-schooled. Lessons are tailored to each child's situation and needs. Over the last 18 months, I have successfully taught lessons online to children aged from 5 to 11 years old.
I’m a qualified teacher with extensive experience of both State and Independent sectors. I teach all core subjects across the National Curriculum (Scotland and English) Key Stages - EYFS, KS1 and KS2/3 and beyond. A Specialist Leader in Education, I’m up to date with the latest educational thinking with extensive knowledge of teaching reading, maths strategies and phonics. With many successful years experience preparing private students: adult readers using Word Wasp, SATS, entrance exams, 7+, 11+, I’m always thrilled to hear how well they are doing. I also work with those unable to access mainstream education for a variety of reasons - SEND/ anxiety/personal circumstances. I had a heart attack at 46, requiring me to withdraw from classroom teaching but instead overcome illness and become a tutor. As part of my health recovery, I taught myself to paint which led me to raise over £150,000 for charity. My story and teaching style hopefully inspires any person to never give up, find their talents and achieve.
