Sarah Shaw

I am an experienced and dedicated primary school teacher and tutor with a passion for helping children grow in confidence and reach their full potential. I specialise in supporting children across the primary curriculum, including phonics, reading, writing and maths, with experience teaching mixed-age classes and adapting learning to suit individual needs and abilities.

My approach is patient, encouraging and engaging, helping children feel comfortable while building both skills and self-belief. I understand that every child learns differently, so I tailor lessons to match each pupil’s learning style, pace and interests. Whether your child needs extra support, preparation for assessments, or a confidence boost, I aim to make learning enjoyable and achievable.

As a qualified primary teacher, I have experience supporting children from Year 1 to Year 6, including pupils with additional needs and those who benefit from structured, nurturing support. I create positive relationships with both children and parents and provide clear feedback on progress and next steps.

I offer calm, supportive tutoring sessions that help children feel successful, motivated and proud of their achievements.

I also offer daytime support for home-educated pupils and children needing alternative or flexible learning arrangements.
