Friendly Primary School Tutor | KS1 & KS2 | Phonics, English & Maths | Building Confidence and a Love of Learning

Hello! I'm an enthusiastic, caring and dedicated trainee primary school teacher with a BA (Hons) Childhood Studies degree and currently completing my teacher training, with the aim of achieving Qualified Teacher Status (QTS) in summer 2027. I have a genuine passion for working with children and supporting them to develop academically, socially and emotionally. I believe every child deserves the opportunity to succeed, regardless of their starting point, and I am passionate about making learning a positive, enjoyable and rewarding experience.

I understand that every child is unique and that no two children learn in exactly the same way. Some children may need a little extra encouragement to develop their confidence, while others may benefit from additional challenges to extend their knowledge and understanding. My aim as a tutor is to get to know each child as an individual, understand their strengths and areas for development, and provide personalised support that enables them to make meaningful progress at their own pace.

My Teaching Experience and Qualifications
Through my teacher training, I have gained valuable classroom experience across both Key Stage 1 and Key Stage 2. My first placement was in a mixed Year 1 and Year 2 class, where I developed my understanding of early primary education, particularly phonics, early reading, writing and mathematics. I particularly enjoyed supporting children as they developed their foundational skills and gained confidence in their learning.

My second placement was in a mixed Year 5 and Year 6 class, which broadened my subject knowledge and strengthened my confidence in supporting older primary-aged children. This experience gave me a deeper understanding of the progression of learning throughout primary education, including the importance of preparing children for the transition to secondary school.

Having experienced both younger and older primary classes, I feel confident supporting children across the primary age range. I understand the importance of adapting teaching approaches to suit different ages, abilities and stages of development.

My BA (Hons) Childhood Studies degree and Level 3 qualification have also provided me with a strong academic foundation in child development, inclusive practice and understanding individual learning needs. I have developed an understanding of how children learn, the barriers
