Hayley

I have seventeen years of teaching experience across the entire primary age range and within a range of roles including Class Teacher, Phase Leader and Assistant Headteacher. Other experience includes international teaching; preparation for the Cambridge A1-C2 English exams (children and adults) and tutor training and mentoring. I have also recently completed a Masters in Education with Leadership.

I have taught in every year group across the primary age range and have a thorough understanding of the National Curriculum requirements for both Key Stage 1 and Key Stage 2, including preparation for SATs. During my time in school leadership, I developed and led the delivery and assessment of the curriculum across the whole school.

In my tutoring sessions, I focus on building each child’s confidence, breaking down learning barriers, and supporting them to achieve academic success—while most importantly, nurturing a genuine love of learning.

Sessions are fun, meaningful, and personalised by making links to real-life experiences and individual interests. I believe children thrive when they can take ownership of their learning. That’s why my students are fully involved with setting goals and helping to choose the topics we explore, boosting both motivation and engagement.

I provide clear, immediate feedback and guide students to reflect on their learning and learn from mistakes, helping them to develop independence and pride. I maintain strong communication with parents, offering regular updates and practical suggestions and/or homework (if suitable) to support learning at home.

Availability: *Online tutoring only

Outside of school hours, I have some availability on Wednesdays and Fridays as well as weekend mornings. However, I have some flexibility so might be able to adapt to your preference.

Additionally, I have some daytime availability on Thursdays and Fridays for home educated or international students.

I am also able to teach 1:2 or small groups as well as holiday courses.
