Information about Philippa
I am fully qualified Primary school teacher. I worked in years 3 and 4 but taught all ages across school for different subjects. I qualified as a teacher with a PGCE from Durham University in 2014 and have a degree in Psychology from University of York (2013). I have experience working with SEN and EBD children and if you child has additional needs we can work on strategies to support them in class.
I am enthusiastic and work to create lessons that are not only personalised to your child but are most importantly fun! Learning is different for everyone, and so I love to find a style that works best for the individual. My lessons are practical and engaging and I use a lot of resources, mnemonics, games and songs to embed learning principles.
I am also a grade 8 cellist and can teach to grade 6 level. I was also head of music at my school and can teach primary music and beginners guitar, piano, ukulele, steel pans and music theory. In my spare time I am a keen artist and love to draw and paint as well as playing my instruments.
Whether you are looking for a boost to get your child up to pace in lessons or test prep for important exams I am happy to tailor the session to you, so you get the most out of the time with me.

Pippa has been very good with my son. He is slowly becoming more confident, and he has said that she is very helpful. The fact that he is happy to go to a session every week with Pippa shows that he feels comfortable with her.
