Tutoring, writing and proofreading support: SEN Inclusive tutor

Please note: Weekly slots are now full. I can only take drop-in and proofreading students at this time. I offer both teaching and proofreading support for all students over the age of 11, including students with additional needs. I welcome adult students and university students too! I have been tutoring professionally on a 1-1 basis for 3 years in addition to teaching small groups in various extracurricular activities for nearly a decade. My subjects include English, Drama, Study Skills, Essay Writing and general literacy skills. If the student at the heart of the inquiry has a learning disability or difficulty, please do let me know so that I can advise as to whether I am suitable. I have experience working with dyslexia, dyspraxia, autism spectrum disorder, ADD/ADHD and a variety of processing disabilities and disorders. If you are not included in my listed experience, please do not be deterred: just ask and we can chat about your needs. I structure my teaching using a student-centered approach. In one-to-one sessions I will consider how my student learns; do they like to draw; do colours help them; what previous methods have/have not worked? I will modify my teaching style to the student, rather than asking the learner to fit my mold. Group sessions are pretty similar, although I generally keep it broader, trying to find a way everyone can understand. If this is not possible, I will explain the task or topic in a generally understood way and ask the students if they have questions and to explain it to one another. This way I can find out where the gaps in understanding are and I can fill those in a way that is suitable for the learner that has not understood. Concessions and cancellation policies are available upon request.
