Ben

I am a friendly, patient and hard-working individual who is dedicated to providing young people with the best environment and opportunities for learning as they need. I believe that every person has the ability to achieve, learn and progress if they are given the right tools and the right mind set. I relish the challenge of enabling children and young people to see within them the possibilities for change and growth that they often don`t see themselves.

Experience: I have worked with pupils throughout the primary age range for the past seven years, in a number of different roles, with children from year one through to year six. I have worked not only as a teacher, but also as a learning mentor, enabling children to address and work through the internal barriers they have towards their learning. I have worked with a lot of `hard-to-reach` pupils on a Designated Special Provision unit for behaviour, providing tailored creative curriculum packages specifically designed to meet their individual needs and to help them progress. I have also tutored privately at GCSE Foundation level in both maths and English, helping pupils to pass their final exams.
