Rosie Heywood

I offer calm, confidence-building tutoring that supports both learning and the learner. My work spans primary maths, phonics and Non-Verbal Reasoning, alongside coaching-style support for confidence, organisation and mindset.

With a background in school leadership and many years working with children across the primary age range, I bring a deep understanding of how children learn best both academically and emotionally. Sessions are highly personalised and shaped around each child’s needs, strengths and interests.

In maths, phonics and NVR, I focus on building secure foundations, clear strategies and flexible thinking, helping children develop confidence rather than reliance. For those who need it, I also work in a more coaching-focused way, supporting children to develop self-belief, resilience and positive learning habits that carry across into school and life.

My approach is calm, encouraging and relational. Sessions combine clear teaching, structured practice and reflective conversation, so children feel safe to think, ask questions and make mistakes. The aim is not just progress on the page, but a child who feels capable, motivated and more confident in themselves as a learner.

I work with families who value a thoughtful, supportive approach and who want tutoring that builds both skills and confidence over time.
