About Me

Every student has unique learning superpowers! My goal is to unlock them with a personalised approach to teaching. Whether your child needs a little boost or more self-belief and resilience, I'm here to help.

I specialise in making learning fun and relatable. My lessons blend hands-on activities, real-world connections, and a mix of visual, auditory, and movement-based strategies to make knowledge more understandable and easily recalled. I'm well-versed in core Primary subjects like English, maths, reading, writing; as well as science, French, Spanish, history, PE, and computing skills.

With a Primary Education degree (QTS), four years of experience in Special Schools, and a background supporting students with mental health needs, I understand how to make learning accessible and build confidence. My passion is tailoring lessons to suit every student and their individual learning style. As a Year 6 SATS Examiner and qualified tutor, I have deep curriculum knowledge and exam preparation expertise. As a Tutor, I was hired to educate and support Teachers enhance their own approaches to instruction. If you want a Tutor who supports academics and personal growth, with resilience, kindness and bespoke learning styles, then please message me and let’s work together to help them discover their potential and shine!

My Experience

Currently: Class Teacher in Year 3 Mainstream School.
I teach the Year 3 Curriculum through a multisensory approach, to increase engagement, adapt to the needs of the pupils and make the curriculum accessible. Whilst teaching, I use strategies such as Colourful Semantics, daily objects/resources and make it personal and purposeful by using their individual likes. Additionally, I focus on teaching an education based on emotional regulation understanding, social skills development and introspective growth. We practice these skills through real-life experiences, as well as bespoke learning for their individual needs using approaches such as Zones of Regulation, positive reinforcement and clear and concise behaviour expectations. This self-growth for pupils is to develop higher independence, better communication ability especially when dysregulated and understanding themselves further. Finally, I support my colleagues through role-modelling approaches to support pupils when dysregulated and providing feedback and advice to them, to increasingly support the pupil.

Additionally:
April 2022- July 2022 Tutor in EYFS, Primary and Secondary departments in a Special school
Sept 2020- April 2022 Class Teacher plus TLR Holder for 'Outdoor Learning' in Special school
June 2018-Aug 2020 Class Teacher in Special School
