Teaching Maths and English to primary school pupils

I currently work at a Pupil Referral Unit in Salford as a KS1 teacher but also have experience teaching KS2. I specialise in teaching Grammar, punctuation and spelling in English. I also specialise in teaching a wide variety of topics in Maths. I can gain access to academic content websites which will provide me with lesson plans and mark schemes for all our lessons. I am educated to degree level, having attained a first in Counselling & Psychotherapy studies. I also specialise in teaching children who are SEN or have behavioural issues and have a lot of experience working with and teaching these sorts of pupils. If you have a primary school child who needs to gain a more deeper understanding in a specific subject area or just wants to brush up their Grammar please get in touch.

French lessons (native speaker) online and Manchester

Matilda
KS 1 - 5 mathematics tutor also available for adult learners
Hello My name is Matilda and I'm a Secondary Maths teacher in an outstanding school. Prior to teaching I have 7 years experience in education by being a high level maths teaching assistant and tutoring. I gained my secondary maths PGCE from Manchester metropolitan university and I also have a degree in Economics I have always believed there is more than one way to teach mathematics which is why I learn about the children and assess how they learn, which enables me to plan series of lessons that suit their needs. I am available for tutoring immediately. I usually start out by doing some standard questions in the first two sessions, but after I've picked up where my tutee may be struggling (or if they ask me for specific help) I make a personalised timetable of study - which usually includes a manageable amount of extra work. I am able to tutor Monday - Friday between 8am - 8pm. I can also accommodate weekend sessions if that suits. I look forward to helping you out!

Belén
Spanish Language (Grammar and Vocabulary) Tutoring
My name is Belén, I am originally from Spain and have just moved to Manchester. I am fluent in both Spanish and English and I studied Linguistics and Literature at the University of Alcalá. This class is for those who are interested in learning Spanish and are just getting started. I studied English as a second language so I know how challenging learning a foreign language can be. My lessons will be focused on understanding how Spanish grammar works and also on its practical use in an everyday context. Moreover, my lessons will also be focused on teaching everyday expressions and vocabulary which might be culturally different from English.

I can also assist with general exam technique - identifying keywords, timing, answer structure and more.

Ernesto
Spanish for English speakers & English for Spanish speakers
I consider myself a very organized and dynamic person so my lessons will response to that personality. I do not like to offer classes and book exercises, but rather a playful and entertaining teaching that develops meaningful learning. Personally I like to adapt the student's interests to the lessons, from my opinion this is the first link to achieve a good level in a second language, either trough (music, sports, TV shows, Netflix, etc.)
