Primary School English: It's all just ticking boxes. (Key Stage 1 and Key Stage 2)
From 46.14 C$ /h
School moves fast and it can often feel like you are speeding through with your hands open just hoping you can grab something - anything - that you can grab to slow you enough that you can say: Yes, I got this. English is a core subject in primary schools, the most important subject. As a primary school teacher, my English sessions will be structured so that you can transition much easier from school to tutoring lessons. As a student of mine I am committed to finding the best way for you to understand the trickiest areas of English. I often tell children that English is just ticking boxes. Does your sentence have correct punctuation? How about grammar? Have you used conjunctions?
My role is to understand where your weakness are so that you can understand enough that your weaknesses become your strengths.
My sessions are not strictly designed for children. No matter what stage in life you are at, whether you're a teenager or adult, I can cater to your needs.

About Me
Helping you feel more confident is the single most important goal of any teacher whose heart is with their students. My role is to understand where you feel are your weaknesses in English as a subject and to move you beyond those weaknesses. Reading and writing is a genuine passion of mine and during my work days it is English I enjoy teaching most. My passion extends outside the classroom. I have published poetry as well as performed live and also a published short story. My favourite thing to quote children is that English is just about ticking boxes. I am here for you to teach you how to see those boxes and tick them off, one by one.
