Callie

If you are looking for a fully qualified, experienced primary school teacher to tutor your child in an engaging way, I would love to help you!

I am the founder and lead tutor at Primary Tutor Project. I have over 5 years of classroom and tutoring experience, and in 2020 began teaching solely online. I adore teaching children both primary subjects and English as a foreign language and have consistently good feedback from parents and students alike.

Tutoring Experience

I am a fully qualified primary school teacher with the following qualifications:

• PGCE in Primary Education
• QTS (qualified teacher status in the UK)
• Enhanced DBS certificate
• Bachelor’s degree in Management
• Pediatric first aid certificate (American Heart Association)

Alongside my qualifications, I have 4 years’ experience working in London primary schools teaching year 1 - year 6, and teaching English in Colombia, Japan and London to children and adults. For the past year, I have worked as an online tutor - my reviews can be found when searching 'Primary Tutor Project Wrestlingworth' into G maps.

I have planned and taught all areas of the primary curriculum, and can tutor pupils through phonics, SATs and 11+ test preparation.
In addition, I have worked with children with SEND such as Autism and speech + language difficulties. I am able to understand the individual child’s needs, and adapt my teaching to suit. For many of my previous pupils, English is their second language, so I have various resources to help those children catch up with the curriculum and learn English to a fluent level.

Tutoring Approach

First and foremost, I aim to inspire a love of learning in any child I teach. My lessons are both fun and purpose driven, ensuring your child takes ownership and pride in their work. Whatever age your child, it is important they understand the objectives of our session so they can see their own progress. There is nothing more encouraging for a child!

I believe that every child can make fast progress when given the right tools. That is why I spend our first session evaluating your child’s level and learning style to make a personalised study plan. This ensures our time is spent focusing on the gaps in your child’s knowledge and challenging them to get to the next level in their learning.

I have extensive resources based on the British national curriculum that are used in schools across the country, for example, Read Write Inc phonics resources, CPG study books, and White Rose maths to name a few. This aligns our sessions with what your child is learning at school and will help them to feel confident with the format and style of work.

Lessons are on Zoom and are fully interactive to engage and inspire your child in the learning. I offer a 30-minute FREE trial lesson, so get in touch to arrange this!

Although my schedule is almost full for the new academic term, this year I have started working with other excellent, fully qualified teachers so get in touch for an initial session.
