Hello, I live in Sunderland. I have a B A (Hons) degree and a Certificate in Education specialising in Maths and English and I have also attended relevant courses (for example in Dyslexia Awareness) and have a Counselling certificate.


I have had approximately 30 years experience of teaching English and Maths and this has included helping pupils to prepare for the SATs tests and for GCSEs. I have worked with children and adults on a one to one basis and in groups and fully understand the needs of both.

I have had extensive experience teaching in schools and am therefore familiar with the requirements of the national curriculum at key stages 1, 2 3 and 4.

I enjoy working creatively and will tailor learning to the particular interests of the pupil if necessary as I feel that this makes learning more interesting and meaningful for them. I have established excellent relationships with pupils in the past and have a sensitive, caring and thoughtful approach.

In the first session I carry out an assessment in order to get an idea of the needs of the pupil and use this as a trial session. Pupils don't have to continue unless they are happy with everything

I also have a vast array of resources and past exam papers and can also create resources that are tailor made for a specific pupil.n

If you need to cancel giving less than 24 hours notice then unfortunately I have to charge for the session as I will have prepared for it

Helen has been working with my daughter on firstly her maths and she has gained confidence in this subject which she has always struggled with. We asked Helen if she could also support my daughter with english language this has been of fantastic benefit and has seen her grades increase which i believe has been the support of Helen. Helen has a very structured way of learning which helps sophie stay focused. We as a family are grateful and are hopeful for successful exam results which probably wouldn't have been possible.
