Information about Francesca

My name is Francesca and I`m a 35 year old primary school teacher. I`ve been teaching for 12 years- mostly in the UK- at both state and international schools and previously taught in Singapore for 3 years. I am now on maternity leave and miss teaching so much- tutoring is a way for me to continue my passion!

I`m very personable and friendly, I love to get to know kids so that I can find out how they like to learn best and what I can help them with. I make learning fun and engaging (even for the most reluctant learner).

I adopt a calming and fun environment that does not feel stressful, or feel like another session of school after an already long day of learning. I want students to feel relaxed and safe whilst learning with me. I stress from the beginning that mistakes are welcomed and celebrated- we learn so much from them!

Availability: I have most available days of the week and am happy to offer mornings at the weekend also.

Willing to travel: 5 miles

Experience: I have a a degree in English Literature and completed my Post Graduate Certificate of Education (PGCE)
12 years teaching experience in KS2- particular specialist for SATs and 11+
Past senior leader- curriculum leader
Experience in both UK state schools and top International school in Singapore.
Proven track record of success for entrance Exams for: Nonsuch, Sutton Grammar, Wilsons and Reigate Grammar.

I have extensive knowledge of the UK curriculum and the current methods of learning in both Maths and English and would be able tyo support your child with learning the particular methods for each subject area. My aim is for students to practise and understand what they have learned in my session and apply to their work in the classroom. Mty gentle coaching approach helps build confidence and resilience so that students develop a positive relationship with learning.

I have extensive knowledge on ma y private schools in both curriculum expectation levels as well as entrance exam requirements.


As a previous year 6 teacher, I know what is required to not only prep for SATS in both maths (including reasoning) and English (Spelling and Grammar), but also what is required for the children leaving year 6 and heading to secondary school (be it private, Grammar or otherwise).


Please contact me if your child:

- Attends Private or Prep school and is expected to maintain a high level of understanding and execution.
- Is preparing for entrance into private or prep school and/or in-school examinations
- 7+, 8+, 11+
- Will be taking YEAR 2 SATS or YEAR 6 SATS
- Would benefit from one to one academic support to get them to the expected level of their year group.
- Excels academically and would benefit from being challenged and gaining a deeper understanding of concepts.
- Is a reluctant learner and requires an alternative method of teaching that works for their needs.

No matter the academic needs of your child, I`m confident we can work together successfullly!
