Shannon

I am a Primary Teacher currently working within East Ayrshire. At present I live in Kilmarnock, however I am more than willing to travel to offer my service.

Availability: I have availability both during weeknights and weekends.

Willing to travel: 15 miles

Experience: I am in my third year of teaching and have experience teaching across the primary curriculum. I have a Bachelor of Education with Honours (B.Ed Hons) in Primary Education and graduated from the University of Strathclyde. Outside of primary education I also worked in a residential school for children with autism for two years. I have a wide range of experience working with children with additional support needs as well as those who are highly able. I am a practitioner who is passionate about learning and helping children reach their full potential. I am flexible in my approach to tutoring and believe it is important to establish a relationship with the child in order to pinpoint their individual needs. Initially in the first few meetings I hope to identify the child’s strengths and next steps for development. I am trained in play based learning and believe learning should be relevant, active and enjoyable. Inbetween sessions I hope to provide follow up tasks which will help consolidate learning.
I also believe it is important to build the individuals confidence and approach all challenges with a positive attitude.
