Experience: I have been teaching as a fully qualified teacher since 1998. I possess (BA) Hons degree, a Primary PGCE, a TEFL certificate and a Trinity CertTESOL. Teaching is my passion; whether the students are young children or adults. I still teach in schools so know the National Curriculum inside-out!

I believe that an individual can really benefit from the tailor-made lessons that I offer. The first session consists of a brief discussion of the student’s needs/concerns and then an initial assessment is conducted. The lessons that follow are carefully planned in order to address any weak areas or key areas of the curriculum that need development/ extending. Examination practice and techniques are also integrated into sessions if required.

I have spent many years teaching in KS2, KS1 and Foundation Stage. I have successfully taught phonics and have a thorough understanding of how to develop early basic skills (early reading, writing and maths). In addition to this, I have prepared students for tests and exams both as a class teacher and as a tutor.

I have taught music across both key stages, taught whole class violin lessons as well as running a school choir. The children had many opportunities to perform.

I have taught English in English Language schools and colleges across the world. This also includes teaching International adult students here in Yorkshire.

I am friendly, organised and professional.
