Information About Lindsay

Personal Description: I have been teaching for 10 years and have taught every year group in the primary sector throughout my teaching career. I am well known for my pastoral care role and my academic knowledge within school due to the subjects I co-ordinate. I studied at Roehampton University. I am married with two children and so have a good understanding of children from both sides of the learning fence! I love teaching and seeing individuals achieve. Every child deserves the taste of success, it's just that some need a little extra guidance and confidence in getting there.

Tutoring Experience: I qualified as a teacher in 2000. Since then I have taught every age group from Years 1-6. Over 3 OFSTED inspections, as well as internal observations, my teaching has been judged as 'Good' and 'Outstanding'. In understand that children have different learning styles and I match my teaching style to the child. I have been tutoring children privately on and off for over 5 years and enjoy giving children that extra little bit of confidence.

Tutoring Approach: My aproach to tutoring varies according to the child I am tutoring. I use the first lesson to assess the child and ascertain how they like to learn. I discuss this with the parents first to get a picture of the child and their needs. This means that tutoring can begin in earnest almost immediately. I am a patient and kind tutor who believes that every child can fulfil his/her potential if given the time and opportunity to do so. I believe that tutoring can help some children gain the confidence and experience they need to excell in school or in entrance exams such as the Kent Test (11+). I am happy to come to you or to tutor from home and am willing to do individuals or small groups.
