Information about Ruth
I am an Oxford University honours degree qualified teacher and tutor, with 20+ years of primary school teaching and private tutoring, including preparing pupils for 11+ exams. I have a wealth of experience of teaching primary pupils of all ages with a wide range of learning needs.
I specialise in preparing pupils in Y2 and Y6 for English and Mathematics SATs, as well as providing general tuition in English and Mathematics. I also have thorough subject knowledge in the teaching of phonics for reading and writing.
With private tuition and one to one teaching and learning, I believe it is paramount that the tutor is patient, understanding and kind and builds up a positive working relationship with the pupil in order to help them to succeed.
I am now offering summer holiday booster sessions for pupils preparing for 11+.
Availability: I now have some availability for the 2026 KS2 SATs and 2026/2027 11+ exams, both for grammar schools and private schools.
I am available for private tuition in English and Mathematics for pupils of any primary school age. Please note: I offer online lessons only, currently.
Please do not hesitate to get in contact if you require further information. I am very prompt in my responses and I am looking forward to hearing from you
Willing to travel: Home Only
Experience: Recent teaching in Year 6 means that I am up to date with current curriculum requirements for reading, writing, grammar and mathematics and how to help pupils achieve expected standard/greater depth in these core subjects.
DBS Check: Yes

Ruth helped my daughter with creative writing. Although my daughter had many ideas, she was hesitant to put them on paper. Ruth guided her to think them through, and with her support, my daughter’s writing improved greatly.

We have been absolutely delighted with the tuition Ruth has provided for our sons in preparation for their Year 6 SATs. Ruth`s teaching has made a real difference. Ruth is not only knowledgeable and professional, but also warm, patient, and engaging – qualities that have really helped build our children`s confidence and understanding in both subjects. The progress we`ve seen has been excellent, and our boys genuinely enjoy their sessions with her. She explains things clearly, tailors the work to their individual needs, and keeps them motivated throughout. We couldn’t be happier with the tuition Ruth has provided, and would highly recommend her to any family looking for a caring and skilled tutor.

I am glad that I found Ruth. She is very professional and my daughter really enjoys her lessons with Ruth. I like the way Ruth assessed my daughter and tailored her lessons accordingly. My daughter wanted someone who explains concepts in detail and Ruth does it exactly the way she understands. I will definitely recommend Ruth to others. Thank you.
