Experienced Teacher/ Tutor: fostering a love of learning in a calm, stress-free way!
From 128 C$ /h
I have been a teacher and senior leader (DHT) in London schools for a number of years and have always loved it; a fact which has motivated me to continually find ways for all children to learn successfully and joyfully at the highest levels possible. I believe that, with precise, multi-sensory, teaching and learner-centred learning, all children will achieve their best. There is always an atmosphere of discovery and motivation to achieve in my lessons and I tailor all lessons to suit individual interests and abilities. I have also had great success working with children at Greater Depth to become outstanding writers. My areas of tutoring expertise are in English with children from Y2 to Y6. I am also an experienced SENDCo - my work with SEND children\'s academic and personal achievement has consistently been deemed outstanding by OFSTED. Writing applications for EHC plans is also an area I have continued success with, currently working as a consultant on individual cases with parents and school leaders.

About Me
I have been a teacher and senior leader (Deputy Head Teacher) in London schools for a number of years and have always loved it; a fact that I know has motivated me to continually find ways for all children and adults to learn successfully and joyfully at the highest levels possible. I believe that people are inherently positive and creative and that with precise, multisensory, interesting teaching and learner-centred learning, they will achieve their best. I feel there is always an atmosphere of discovery, excitement, focus and motivation to achieve in my lessons as every lesson is a new lesson and there to be enjoyed together. I like to get to know the learners I work with so that I can tailor the lessons to suit their personality and preferred learning style.
