An effective primary school teacher demonstrating success over 20 years in teaching, motivating, and directing pupils whilst maintaining high interest and achievement. Flexibility to teach a range of children from Early Years to Year 6, with a good experience of Key Stage 1 and a very good understanding of the Early Years Foundation Stage Framework. Able to plan effectively to meet individual needs whilst applying a range of teaching styles where all learners are valued, achieving their full potential.

I am currently a student at the University of Gloucestershire studying Primary Education (Maths Specialism). I completed my A-Levels in 2018 with straight As in Maths, Psychology and Biology and completed my GCSEs in 2016 with 3 A*s (including Maths) and 9 As. I have been tutoring for over three years now and all my students have passed their GCSE maths exam. I once improved a student's grade from a 1 to a 4 in one year.

I aim to make all lessons fun and engaging as I believe students will learn more if they're motivated and enjoying themselves. I create my own worksheets so I am confident that all my resources are high-quality and contain all the possible questions that could be asked in the exam. My worksheets ask more questions on areas that students frequently get stuck at and it breaks harder topics into smaller, more manageable steps for the students to reduce their cognitive load so they may find learning easier and they can remember the learning long-term.

Depending on the progress/current attainment of the student, I sometimes create a personalised long term lesson plan alongside the student so they understand where they should be in their studies and keeps them motivated to learn and not fall behind my expectations of them. This gets altered after past paper practice and any feedback from tests from the class teacher.

Each week I assign a past paper (or several questions from a past paper) so students gain the ability to understand what the question is asking and this allows them to practice several areas so they are not forgotten. This also enables me to see their progress and adapt future lessons accordingly. I mark these papers (however I do offer the chance for student to mark these to offer them insight into what examiners looks for) and go through them in detail with the student in the next lesson to further their learning. Additionally, it enables the student and myself to track their progress.

Please note I only have online availability currently.

Look forward to hearing from you soon,

Need to pass an exam in French or Spanish?
Want to give it your best chance?
Perhaps you want to improve your conversational skills for holiday?
You’re in the right place!
With over 8 years experience of teaching languages in schools, delivering lectures, working as an examiner and successfully tutoring a range of amazing young people, I would like to support you in teaching your goals!

I am open to finding the best technique suited for your needs as everyone is different, and no method fits all. I prefer to have fun with my lessons and teach at speed appropriate for you.
My lessons are best suited for those of GCSE/ secondary school age, as well as primary school ages. I have previous experience tutoring people to pass their GCSE's. For example, a girl in my class was learning English as a second language during year 10. This meant that she had a year to learn and pass her GCSE's. Thus, with my help, she went from an F to a B within the year.
