Advert description
I am a fully qualified teacher with a BA Hons and PGCE. I have taught in primary, secondary, state and private schools. Between teaching in schools and becoming a self-employed private-tutor, I worked as a full-time private-home-tutor for a high-net-worth family. I am married with children and now love working as private-tutor because it gives me a great home/work-life balance whilst still doing the teaching that I love.
Despite having a broad range of teaching skills and experience, as a private-tutor, I have specialised in Key Stage (KS) 2 (Yrs. 3-6) including the exams that the children take within this KS (11+ & Yr. 6 SATs). As a specialist tutor of only one Key Stage, I can maximise and focus all my time and resources into materials and knowledge for this one particular area.
My areas of skill include:
Yr. 3:
* Supporting the step-up from ‘infants-Juniors’ enabling struggling children to jump ahead with English and maths.
Yrs. 4 & 5:
*11+ prep. (eps. Kent Test but also other counties 11+ and Independent Schools 11+ entrance exams - I do not now tutor for the Medway Test) maths, English, verbal & non-verbal reasoning. The Kent Test makes up the majority of my tutoring work and I have a very high pass rate for this test achieving 100% pass rate for 4/7 years I have been tutoring for this exam including last year.
*General support with English & maths for confidence and progress.
Yr. 6:
*Yr. 6 SATs exams which as well as their teacher assessment will play a big role into which sets they are placed when they start at their chosen secondary school.
*Readying them for the transition into Yr. 7 at their chosen secondary school.
I warmly welcome any enquiries.
