About Me

Hi everyone,

My name is Ann-Marie and I have been teaching in various subjects for over 15 years. I have experience teaching children from 4 years old to 16 years old. I also have experience teaching adults in various subjects.

With the younger children at KS1 I have experience of delivering Maths and English. Particularly from 4 years old I have looked at phonics, learning how to read and writing skills. For KS2 students, I have experience of delivering Maths and English. Adult learning, covers a wide variety of subjects. A few to name that I have taught include Information Technology, Functional Skills in Maths and English and a variety of short courses to help with employability skills and supporting adults into the workforce.

I obtained my teaching qualification in 2007 from the Institute of Education, now known as The UCL Institute of education. Being a very prestigious Institution, I believe the Institute of Education has made me well equipped to teach to a very high standard in any given educational setting.

I have a wealth of experience delivering lessons in schools, colleges and training providers. I am absolutely passionate about teaching! I just love seeing my students progress, and gain new knowledge and skills.

I also have experience preparing students for exams and I have an excellent pass rate when students choose to learn with me. I have supported students with the 11+ exams and one of my success stories was seeing through a student being given a place at The Latymer School, Edmonton, London. I have also been through the process of sitting an Entrance exam to get into a selective grammar school. I therefore can certainly emphasise with students regarding the pressure they must feel throughout the process. I also deliver exam skills and dedicate some time in all my sessions to applying one's knowledge to exam style questions.

I look forward to teaching you and I will make the sessions as fun, interactive and engaging as possible! I will set homework for you to check and review your learning and I will also help you focus on the areas/topics that you feel need to be addressed as a priority.

I set clear targets in each session, known as learning outcomes and I will guide you through at a pace convenient to you to help and support you achieve all the outcomes by the end of the session.

Learning is fun! That's my motto and I want to help you enjoy learning and succeed in whichever subject you choose to book with me.

I look forward to teaching you.

While adults are still debating whether kids should use AI, they are already using it.
The question isn't "should they?" it's "how do we do it intelligently?"

In this course, your child will discover:
✓ What AI actually is: not magic, not mystery. How machines think, what they can do, what they can't
✓ How ChatGPT really works: not just "ask a question and get an answer," but why it responds that way, where it fails, when to trust it
✓ What LLMs are (Large Language Models): in language they understand, not tech jargon
✓ Create with AI: custom avatars, interactive stories, real projects using real tools
✓ Think critically about AI: Bias, privacy, creativity. What does AI do better than humans? What can't it do?
✓ Real-world applications: How AI transforms medicine, education, art, gaming, everyday life

Why this is different:
Most AI courses for kids teach "here's the tool, use it." I teach how to think about AI.
Your child will learn to see AI not as black magic or a solution to everything, but as a powerful tool with real limits.
And, more importantly: that they can control how they use it.

What they take home:
Real projects they created (custom avatar, interactive app, analysis of a real AI case study). A genuine understanding of how it works. And the ability to use AI responsibly and creatively.

Format: Online | 60–90 min sessions | Flexible, adapted to their age and pace

For curious kids asking "How does ChatGPT actually know things?"
