Online Maths and English Teacher

An enthusiastic, dedicated and highly innovative teacher, who's passion is supporting children on their learning journeys. I have immense experience in creating and delivering a highly effective and engaging curriculum to children at the primary school level. I have experience of the KS1 and KS2 SATS.

EVERY child can achieve, when the right approach to learning and a tailored approach is taken. I am evaluative in determining each child's strengths and areas for development, and as a result close the gap and increase confidence in these areas.

Tutoring Experience

I am a qualified Primary Teacher working with children on a daily basis. I have a track record for success and helping individuals achieve accelerated progress.

Tutoring Approach

Children need solid foundations in key areas of learning in order to be able to successfully approach more complex ideas and skills. As a result I focus on a mastery approach to learning. Tailoring a bespoke curriculum to each child I work with.

I have supported and taught children of high net worth individuals, including families from the UK and Middle East.

I have successfully composed and conducted professional training boot camps based around the Primary curriculum. I am a highly valued and sought after tutor!

  7. I tend tо fоcus оn hаrder exаm questiоns eаrly оn sо thаt students аre nоt оverwhelmed with them neаrer tо exаm time.

  8. I provide students with visuаl representаtiоns which is highly successful for all learners.

  9. I ask students tо teаch bаck key learning and concepts that I tаught them which helps in imprоving their cоmmunicаtiоn skills besides serving аs а revisiоn tооl.

  10. I provide students with efficient methods of doing questions to save time during time-pressured exams
