Lisa

I am a qualified and experienced teacher/tutor and also a mother of 4 children.
As a parent I have experienced helping my own children ( aged 14-24) with their homework, revision for SATs, and also revision for 11+ exams, I have also home educated two of my children.

I have a calm and flexible approach to tutoring. I believe that a tutoring approach has to be child/ young person specific. Due to this I always take into account where the child/ young person is currently academically, what their preferred learning style is, their strengths and weaknesses, and also their personality before I make any decisions on my specific approach.

I use a range of resources, strategies and methods to engage and ensure a secure depth of understanding.

I have an up to date DBS check
