Each session is designed around the child’s individual needs and pace.
• Warm-up & connection: A short chat, game, or activity to help the child settle and feel comfortable.
• Focused learning time: Targeted work in English or Maths, using visual, hands-on, or multi-sensory methods to make concepts clearer and engaging.
• Confidence check-in: I always end with reflection or positive feedback so the child leaves feeling proud and motivated.

For younger children, lessons are play-based and full of movement, stories, and songs. For older pupils, we focus on building independent learning skills — like organisation, problem solving, and resilience — alongside academic progress.
I cover English, Maths, Reading, Writing, Phonics, and SATs preparation, but my sessions go beyond academics. I incorporate:
• Visual and sensory materials for better focus and understanding.
• Calm and patient communication that supports emotional regulation.
• Positive reinforcement to strengthen self-esteem and curiosity.

Every child is unique, and so every lesson feels different — shaped by their mood, energy, and interests on that day.
Experience and Philosophy

With over 20 years in Early Years and Special Educational Needs teaching, I bring experience, creativity, and empathy to every session.
My background allows me to recognise subtle learning needs, adapt strategies quickly, and create lessons that help children not only learn but feel good about learning.

Because when children believe they can — they will. ??
