Sarah

I am an experienced primary school teacher who specialises in teaching English to children between the ages of 4 to 11 years old.

Tutoring Experience

I am a fully qualified primary teacher with over twenty five years' experience. My teaching career started in 1997 and I taught in a number of schools within the London Borough of Barking and Dagenham before relocating to Kent in 2017. After moving to Kent I initially worked as a supply teacher before becoming a self-employed tutor in October 2020. I have recently completed a TEFL course to support children for whom English is an additional language.

Tutoring Approach

Due to my extensive teaching experience I have a comprehensive understanding of how children learn. I always plan lessons that meet my tutees individual learning needs to motivate them to learn and succeed. I feel this approach encourages children to become confident and independent learners, which is key to their future learning and success.
My ability to work with parents has always been a strength throughout my career. I have an open and approachable manner which ensures I quickly build good relationships with the parents of the children I tutor.
