Personal Description: I am a qualiified teacher who enjoys working with children to help them learn and improve their skills and understanding. I enjoy travelling and being outdoors. Before becoming a teacher I worked as a nanny and worked overseas as a holiday rep. I have been to Australia and America and am hoping to travel to South Africa soon. I love sports and am a keen athlete who swims regularly and goes to the gym. At home I have 2 kittens who keep me busy as well as a chinchilla!

Tutoring Experience: I am a qualified primary teacher who is currently working in a Junior school in a year 3 and 4 class. I have experience of teaching children with learning needs including ADD. Before qualifying I worked as a nanny supporting children with homework and entrance exam revision.

Tutoring Approach: I am a patient and understanding person who appreciates that it takes some people longer than others to process information and solve problems. I have a modern approach to teaching and feel it is important to listen to the child and understand what they are finding tricky or have low confidence in. I like to challenge thinking by giving a range of appraoaches to learning and problem solving. I think it is important to provide support and encouragement to enable you to have the confidence to attempt some aspects of learning you are finding difficult or would like some 1:1 support with. I am always postive in my comments and feel it is important to make a tutee feel valued as well as setting them high standards for themselves. With so many exams pressures at the moment sometimes we just need a little boost to help us to get there!
