I have a BA Hons Degree in Youth Work & Theology, and I have worked with children and young people for the past 16 years. Over the last decade I have worked in an educational capacity, as an SEN assistant, an LSA, an HLTA and as a teacher. I now work fully remotely as a tutor, offering classes across key stages 1-4. I have a passion for helping students from all walks of life achieve their very best, and I enjoy the creative challenges that come from finding new ways to teach students according to their needs and abilities.
