What I Offer
1:1 Tutoring
One-to-one sessions provide personalised support, allowing your child to focus on areas where they need the most help. This approach is ideal for targeted intervention or consolidating learning, helping children gain confidence, develop independence, and master skills at their own pace. Many strategies learned in 1:1 sessions can also be reinforced and enhanced in small group settings, where children benefit from collaboration and peer learning.
Writing
I support children in all aspects of writing, including composition, grammar, punctuation, and spelling. Sessions focus on building clarity, confidence, and creativity, while also addressing curriculum requirements. Whether it’s improving sentence structure, boosting vocabulary, or preparing for SATs writing tasks, each lesson is tailored to the child’s individual needs.
Paired/Group Tutoring
Paired or small group sessions combine personalised support with the motivation of learning alongside peers. Children can discuss ideas, solve problems together, and gain confidence while developing communication and teamwork skills. Concepts and strategies practiced in group sessions transfer easily back into the classroom, helping children apply their learning independently and confidently. Group tutoring is also a cost-effective way to access high-quality, targeted teaching with the added benefits of peer interaction.
Maths
I provide clear, structured support in maths, helping children develop strong conceptual understanding, problem-solving skills, and confidence with numbers. Lessons are personalised to focus on areas where the child needs the most support, and I aim to make maths approachable, enjoyable, and relevant, while ensuring measurable progress.
Reading & Phonics
I help children develop strong reading skills, from phonics and decoding to comprehension and fluency. Lessons are designed to be engaging and rewarding, encouraging a lifelong love of reading. Using structured methods and targeted practice, children gain confidence, improve understanding and make progress.
SATs Preparation
With extensive experience as a Year 6 teacher and KS2 writing moderator, I provide focused SATs preparation in reading, writing, and maths. Lessons are carefully structured to build confidence, strengthen key skills, and ensure children understand what is required to succeed. My approach equips children with strategies and practice that transfer seamlessly into the classroom, helping them feel ready, capable, and confident when it comes to SATs assessments.
