Chloe

I am a fully qualified Primary school teacher originally from Yorkshire and am happy to have recently returned, previously to returning I lived and worked in Cambridgeshire, Suffolk, Wiltshire, Hampshire and London for 10 years.

My Partner in in the Army and spends a lot of time away, so when he is back we like to do some travelling and exploring of new places together. I am a real book worm and can go through up to a book a week! I also thoroughly enjoy movies and try to get to the cinema as often as possible. I would say I am quite creative and I love to bake and paint.

I thoroughly enjoy working with children in a number of different settings. For example I was a volunteer and trustee for a children`s charity for the past 6 years, this involves taking disadvantaged children from Liverpool on a residential holiday for part of the summer. I have also worked on a few occasions as a live in nanny, my last position was in Tuscany, Italy in 2010.

I have experience in private tutoring children from Year 1 to Year 6, including SATs and entry level exams preparation.

Availability: I am currently not taking any students online or face to face.

Willing to travel: 10 miles

Experience: I am a fully qualified Dramatherapist currently working inthe NHS with young adults who are experiencing mental health difficulties. I made the move away from class teaching, as I found myself being drawn towards being able to support children in their emotional and social development and also to extend my work to adults.

I have been teaching for 10 years. I have worked in both special and mainstream schools across both key stages. I have worked with first and second year BA: Performance students focusing on specific modules and practical performances. I have worked as a general class teacher, 1:1, special needs intervention and booster teacher across schools throughout the country.

I have recently left a school in Wiltshire where I was employed as a 1:1 interventions teacher. I worked with children across the school, with varying needs to fill gaps and to ensure readiness for SATs, moving up a year group or merely catching up with their peers.

As I previously said I am quite creative. I like to take this approach when I am tutoring. I am very aware that there are many different ways of learning and that it is important to find the correct one to suit each individual. If something doesn`t work, we just find an alternative route. I find communicating with younger children very easy and seem to be able to form relationships fairly quickly. I thoroughly enjoy watching the progress being made as a child develops educationally and socially.

I start with a new tutee with a fairly comprehensive assessment to ensure I fully understand the needs of the child. Every child is very different and I find an individualised plan for each tutee is helpful and necessary to really focus on any gaps or lack of confidence in certain areas. I endeavor to make my tutoring sessions as fun as possible for the child and use lots of creative and interactive activities to keep them engaged.

I am able to offer a range of references from my clients and their familiies.
