Sarah

I am a tutor, a qualified QTS teacher and a specialist dyslexia assessor and teacher. I particularly specialise in children who have additional learning needs. During 16 years working in education, my love for teaching just keeps growing and growing! Every day I strive to re-engage children in learning, enabling them to reach their full potential, no matter what their ability
​;
I worked as a teaching assistant for 9 years in a mainstream school before becoming a classroom teacher. As my love for teaching grew, I started to broaden my horizons and became a tutor. I work with children who have particular difficulties and obstacles to overcome, from Global Development Delay and speech and language, to hearing impairments, or children who just find some subjects a little trickier. I have skills and experience that support children with ASC, selective mutism, anxiety, dyslexia, and SEN students. Working with so many different abilities enables me to tailor my tutoring to suit the children`s needs, adapting as necessary.

After school is also possible.
Available throughout the daytime

Willing to travel: 20 miles

Experience: I currently tutor a range of children with a wide range of needs, from year 1 through to adult learners wanting to gain a 4 in their maths.
I support a lot of students with additional needs and those who are hone educated.

I also assess students for dyslexia as well as tutoring them.

I was a teaching assistant for 10 years, during which I completed my degree in education and child psychology. I worked 1:1, with SEND children, children with hearing impairment, as well as children with learning and behavioural difficulties. I completed a work based PCGE in my employed school, planning and delivery lessons to whole classes, whilst also run maths booster lessons which were individually tailored.

I now work as a tutor with children who are not in school for various reasons, such as, looking for alternative provisions, children with anxiety and find it hard going to school and children who have been excluded, along with many other reasons. I tailor the learning to suit each individuals needs.
