Empowering Academic Success: 20+ Years Experienced Educator Supporting KS1 & KS2 Students Successfuly Navigate SATs & 11+ Exams

As an experienced educator with over 20 years of teaching experience in KS1 and KS2, I offer a range of educational and coaching services to support children's academic and personal development.

As a private academic tutor, I offer one-on-one support for children ages 6-13 with general educational needs, SATs prep, 11+ exam prep and confidence-boosting. As a children's relaxation coach, I work with children 1:1 and lead groups of children through yoga, dance, and meditation/relaxation exercises.

My teaching experience includes day-to-day supply across EYFS, KS1, KS2, and SEND, including autistic and MLD units within mainstream and special schools, and as an intervention teacher for KS2. I have also worked as an EYFS consultant within a children's centre, supporting the school and centre by delivering programs to support families identified as needing help.

In addition to my teaching experience, I have been a CPD mentor to music teachers via the Guildhall School of Music & Drama, supporting them with the whole class instrumental lesson (Wider Opportunities) initiative. I have also co-led the curriculum development for a Personal Development Schools project, supporting and training non-educators and specialists in the development of a cross-curricular, holistic approach to learning.

I hold a Bachelor's degree in Education from the University of Victoria and a Bachelor's degree in Arts from the University of British Columbia. Overall, my extensive experience and diverse skill set make me well-suited to support your child's academic, personal, and creative growth.
