    Highly qualified and experienced native English speaking Dyslexic and Learning Difficulties Specialist

    I am a native english speaker and have had significant experience in tutoring children, teenagers and adults with a vast range of learning challenges, including various levels of aspergers and autism, dyspraxia, ADD/ADHD, dyslexia, dyspraxia, auditory processing weakness, sensory integration struggles, as well many children with no specific diagnosis, but who seem to simply struggle generally with reading, writing and spelling. I also trained and qualified in Sensory Integration through Therapeeds and completed the Neuroscience Approach to Reading Intervention. I am also fully certified in the Wilson Reading Method, the Orton-Gillingham Dyslexic Training method and the The Nancibell - Visualizing and Verbalizing Program for Cognative development, comprehension and thinking.

    I believe the combination of all my hands on experience and training, as well as my additional courses of Sensory Integration Training etc., has truly given me a unique knowledge and experience base which I use to add an extra level of understanding when tutoring my students.
    I do particularly enjoy, and have been very successful in working with, students that might be regarded as extra challenging. I have a genuine love of what I do, as well as a high level of curiosity which I believe makes me that much more effective as a teacher.

    (Online) Mathematics Tutoring for High School Students
    High School Math can be confusing for students. Often there is not enough time in school to repeat the content and practice enough, for the students to gain confidence and a routine in solving mathematical problems. With my help and guidance, any confusion will be cleared and we will practice problem solving until you are confident and understand the material. The lessons will be tailored to your needs and their structure depends highly on you: usually it is a mixture of repeating the content, solving exercises together, summarising important concepts and talking about exercises you tried yourself at home. The topics, content, pace and methods of learning will be adjusted to your needs, ensuring that you get the most out of my lessons. Besides the lessons, you will get "homework" to work on to strengthen your skills and independent working. Topics include, but are not limited to: -Linear Algebra -Calculus -Trigonometry -Geometry -Set Theory -Analysis If you have another topic in mind that you really need help with, just send me a message! Whether you need someone that explains the concepts to you or just someone to practice exercises with - I am sure I can help you. You have an exam soon and want to review the main topics? No problem! You have a very specific problem, question or topic that you need help with? I'm here to answer any questions! You need help with preparing for your A-levels/High School diploma? Don't fret, I will guide and prepare you! The most important part of my lessons is, however, to ensure a safe and comfortable environment - I have no issue with explaining the same concept over and over again until I am convinced that you have understood it. It is important to me that you feel comfortable in asking any questions - I want to show you, that Math is more than a subject and that it can be fun!

    I love English because, for me, it's a living, dynamic, and energetic language. You hear it everywhere: in songs, movies, games, travel... English allows you to communicate with the whole world, discover other cultures, and open doors in school and professional life. It's a language I love teaching, especially to children, because they can learn it easily and have fun. My goal is to pass on this passion to them and help them gain self-confidence. The objective is to introduce children to English in a fun, interactive, and progressive way, adapting to their school curriculum, age, and level.
