I am a qualified teacher providing tutoring for children aged 5-18

I am a qualified primary school teacher with over 14 years of experience in schools. I tutor children from Reception to Year 8 in Maths, I also tutor children working towards foundation level GCSE. I have experience working with children to prepare for the Year 1 Phonics Screening, the Year 4 Multiplication check and KS1 and KS2 SATs. I have also recently been an exam marker for the Year 6 SATs assessments. I love tutoring because I really enjoy seeing the progress that can be made with a personalised lesson plan and I want to empower children to be the best they can be whilst having fun and most importantly gaining confidence in themselves. In my sessions I like to use a mixture of games and interactive activities to ensure that children are learning as well as having fun. With my knowledge of the National Curriculum I can closely link our sessions to school lessons to provide as much support so that children can tackle their learning in school confidently and make progress. I believe that praise and encouragement is extremely important as well as giving feedback in a positive and constructive way to help children to learn from their mistakes and continue to flourish.
