Clare

Based in central Worcester, I am a highly experienced teacher with extensive tutoring experience who passionately believes that one-to-one tuition can overhaul your child`s skills, performance, and confidence - both at home and school.

As a teacher, I recognise that there is only so much that students can achieve in a school setting. Class numbers are often high, children`s learning needs are varied, and teachers` contact time with students is limited. The school system is generally excellent, but individual tutoring can help students to achieve so much more!

My tutoring philosophy is based on partnership. Understanding your child`s needs is crucial, so I`ll carry out a detailed assessment to formulate a three-point action plan for the first six weeks, enabling your child to experience real success and boost their confidence.

After this, the action plan will be constantly reviewed and updated, enabling your child to build upon their achievements to become more confident and proficient both in tutorials and at school.

My tutoring sessions will:

- Build confidence and enjoyment.
- Be fun, engaging, but challenging.
- Build resilience and an `I can do` approach.
- Help your child to find workarounds when a problem occurs.
- Be personalised to your child`s needs.
- Provide follow-up homework, if requested.

At all times, I`ll ensure you receive feedback about your child`s progress and achievements, with dedicated feedback time at the end of every session.

Experience: I qualified as a teacher in 1997 and have enjoyed a varied and rewarding career in the north-west of England and West Midlands as a classroom teacher, Assistant Headteacher, and Deputy Headteacher.

My experience ranges from large primary schools in areas of social deprivation to small rural schools, with my current senior leadership role in an Alternate Provision school in Gloucester where I teach students upto GCSE-level. I have developed a comprehensive toolkit of strategies to enable all students to make outstanding progress, irrespective of their individual needs.

I have also gained considerable experience of online tuition using tools such as Zoom and can make these sessions fun and interactive, despite being delivered remotely.
