Is your child in need of some 1:1 literacy support from a qualified teacher? Perhaps they’re struggling with their home learning, need some regular literacy catch up, or you just can’t give them the attention they need while you work from home too. Invest in their future with 1:1 online tutoring sessions with me! A qualified teacher, experienced with supporting both high ability students and special needs from ages 7-16. I'm friendly, creative and adapt my teaching to suit all sorts of learning styles. My passion for accessible education has lead me to be a tutor. I love teaching secondary Drama, but I worked for many years with children in Learning Support which has given me a passion for making education accessible and encouraging.

I can offer:
• 1:1 literacy booster sessions.
• Support with literacy-based home learning tasks.
• One-off sessions for older pupils.
• Coursework or essay help in GCSE English, Drama or Media
My hours are flexible, all sessions online.

I believe that learning should be enjoyable, encouraging and student-centered. Sessions are available daytime and after school.

About Me
Hi, I’m Zillah.
I am a qualified teacher, experience teaching both Drama and English. Before teaching, I worked for years in Learning Support in Primary and Secondary, where I did 1:1 work as well as group sessions. This gave me a good knowledge of the curriculum and experience working with pupils of all abilities.
As a tutor, I can choose the content that the parents or the child themselves identify they need help with. I can then adapt the content well for the pupil when I know their learning style.
I believe that learning should never make children feel discouraged or knock their confidence. My methods are a pupil-centered approach that goes at a suitable pace and is tailored to their learning style.
If that sounds like the kind of thing your child needs, read on!
Education
Postgraduate Certificate in Education, Masters Degree (2:1), three A Levels in English Literature, Drama and Theatre and Media Studies. I also received regular training in different learning and physical disabilities which enriched my work in learning support. There aren't many disabilities I haven't worked with, but I specialise in Autism and Dyslexia.

Hello! I'm Joey - I'm a qualified Modern Foreign Languages teacher with a specialism in Spanish.

Languages and particularly Spanish have become my passion and I really love sharing this passion with others who are interested in it.
I’m British, but started learning Spanish at school, I then went on to live in Spain, changed my original degree to study Spanish and Italian and then lived in Spain again!
This is one of the key reasons I can really help you on your Spanish learning journey - I have been through it myself! I know what mistakes are easily made, what gets confusing between English and Spanish and what pronunciation is particularly difficult, so I can guide you more thoroughly.

Whether you want Spanish lessons because...
- you are preparing for exams
- you are going on holiday
- you want to build more conversational skills
- you want to understand and learn more grammar
- you need it for work
- you just want to try something new

I can 100% help you!

You will get:
- Lessons tailored to your specific needs and goals.
- A fun and relaxed learning environment in which your confidence will grow.
- Loads of contextualised conversation and grammar practice.
- Consistent repetition and practice of previously learnt content, *including pronunciation (super important!).
- Lots of real-life scenario practice.
- Cultural facts about Spain and other Spanish-speaking countries (if desired).

I think there’s something so important about being able to help a student one-on-one, adapting everything I do to your needs and goals, rather than applying a one-size-fits-all approach to everyone.
I want to help you feel more empowered to learn a language or to improve your language skills, doing so on your own terms!
