Natasha

I have been deemed an `Outstanding` teacher with students making `excellent` progress in my lessons which are dynamic and engaging. My lessons are creative to maintain student interest and focus and as a result I have an excellent rapport with my students who find my approachable and trustworthy. Being an avid reader and a passionate teacher of English I am incredibly enthusiastic at teaching English.

I especially enjoy working with students within the 11-16 range as I feel this is when they are the most challenging but also the time in which the positive lessons and advice they receive will shape them the most. I have worked with students with both academic and behavioural disabilities and as a result have experience in making learning accessible to all abilities by differentiating my lessons using resources such as key words and scaffolding sheets.
