I have over 16 years experience as a dedicated primary school teacher in England, teaching children in year & 5. In addition to this, I have tutored children on a one to one basis in preparation for KS1 & KS2 SATS and the 11 plus exam (typically year 2, 5 & 6 children), helping build their confidence and skills. I am also currently teaching adults English as a second language, using a student focused approach.

I like to find out what motivates my students, what their skills are & what they need to work on. My lessons involve visual & physical activities, games & guided & supported learning, dependent on the target skills needed. I try to use questioning to allow the pupil to find appropriate answers & solutions to problems. I link learning to real life examples wherever possible so that students can apply these skills.

I am offering online lessons to primary school age children working on the English National Curriculum and to adults working on English as a second language.
