PLEASE NOTE I AM ON HOLIDAY FROM FRIDAY 28TH UNTIL AUGUST 5TH

Having been a Qualified Primary Teacher for over 25 years, I have vast experience preparing resources and delivering lessons to different ages, cohorts, and needs. Also working as a primary and adult level Art and English tutor, I have experience working 1:1 and in small groups, to either coach for exams or build confidence in a particular academic area, including University entrance exams/interviews.

I have also had some recent experience teaching 11+ creative writing and spelling/vocabulary exam preparation.

Having taught ESL/phonics/reading/writing online to Chinese children and tutored Math, Science and English through another virtual classroom, I also have over 4 years of experience teaching online using remote classroom platforms.


Starting from the student's level I build on their confidence and existing skills to make the next steps in learning.
Having worked with special needs including Autism, Physical special needs such as spina bifida, multiple sclerosis, AHD, ADHD, and emotional and behavioural needs, I have used a variety of educational approaches, adapted to individuals for personalised learning.

At times, I create and sell my own artwork and take commissions.

Gardening organically, growing fruit, flowers, and vegetables on my allotment helps me to relax, be grounded, and contribute to the environment. I have also rehomed retired/rescued greyhounds/sighthounds and lurchers and enjoy walking them. I am a Christian and attend one of my local churches.
