I am a Masters graduate in Public Administration at the University of Leiden and have a Bachelors Degree in Economics from University of Leeds, UK. While taking a year out after my first degree at the University of Leeds in the UK, I decided to unleash my teaching potential thereby making an impact in the lives of selected year 11 students in my neighbourhood struggling with core subjects such as Maths, English among other subjects.

This was an enjoyable experience and I am glad I am able to put smiles on their faces and add to the knowledge of my students. I look forward to working with students within my territory regardless of their knowledge levels in the subjects I teach hoping that I would be able to make the same impact on them as well.

I specialise in tutoring English, Maths and Science for different schools around West Yorkshire area. My goal is to keep students challenged, and not overwhelmed. I assign homework for each student after every lesson and provide them a progress report end of each month to see how far they have come.

This class that I am going to be tutoring is specifically teaching ENGLISH LANGUAGE to students. The focus is how you learn this subject and to pass your upcoming exams. You'll learn a variety of different topics and I will allow the space and time in which you can focus which enhances your cognitive skills.

I teach children from 7 years old to adults 65+.

I am a fully qualified primary teacher (female - age 40) with 16 years of experience in the UK and overseas. I am fully DBS checked and can provide excellent references.

I am currently available to provide focused one-to-one support with school work - either helping with home learning or with "catch-up" to fill in gaps from missed time at school. I can carry out assessments to identify areas for development, or can focus on specific areas requested by parents.

I'm happy to work with anyone online or can come to your home if local. No problem if you'd like to meet for a chat first.

The lessons are tailored so each student can achieve their own personal learning goals. I provide TEFL for both young learners and adults, in General English, Business English and IELTS preparation.
Lessons for young learner are done using fun activities and TPR to encourage guided discovery. Mistakes are welcomed as they help young learners to learn and remember. Lessons include reading, listening, writing, grammar, phonics and conversation to build the confidence, vocabulary and proficiency of each learner based on their individual needs.
Classes for adults can be General English, Business English or IELTS preparation and again all of the skills are incorporated, whilst the lessons are individually suited to the desired learning objectives and areas most in need of improvement or support.
Lessons for British students are provided for KS1 and KS2 students, as well as 11+ exam preparation. again lessons are tailored for the individuals needs as well as focussing on topics they enjoy. Lessons for younger learners focus on learning through fun and finding what they need support with and teaching techniques that work for the individual. Again, young learners are reassured that our philosophy is 'mistakes help us learn'.

This class can help improve your child's English grade. Through the use of a baseline test I can initially identify gaps to help improve their foundational skills, which includes grammar, spelling, and vocabulary. Once, these are strengthened we will move onto writing for different genres. Enabling children to develop and adapt their writing style to match different genres. Across all levels we will use different texts to develop their reading and comprehension skills. As a primary school teacher with over a decade worth of experience I have planned and taught English from age 4-11.

English and Math are beautiful subjects that may be challenging for some but are not. I specialize in helping students learn the English Language and Math for personal use or preparing for exams like the SAT, GCSE, GRED, and so on. I aim to provide a comfortable teaching experience for my students which would also challenge them but not be overwhelming. I also give assignments and homework to track my students' performance. I ensure i work hand in hand with my students for them to achieve their goals.
