Information about Jemma
Im a passionate and fully qualified primary school teacher (QTS) with 12+ years of teaching experience, offering tuition in Maths and English to build confidence and self-esteem. Available daytimes and evenings.
I offer bespoke 1-to-1 tuition sessions. I create personalised plans to support students in their learning or add a little extra challenge where needed, with interactive and engaging sessions to boost their confidence and begin to plug any gaps in their knowledge.
I have an Enhanced DBS certificate from October 2020 and I am registered with the update service which keeps my certificate up-to-date.
My first `getting to know you` session is free. In this session, I will find out more information about you and/or your child. I will carry out short, informal assessment tasks so that we can discover the initial areas that we will work on together. I love to play games to make the sessions fun and interactive so that they dont feel like traditional learning. I have tutored and taught many students with SEND, including those with autism, ADHD and dyslexia, amongst others.
Availability: I am available to teach KS1/2 maths and English online during the daytime and evenings. I am also happy to teach older learners with gaps in those curriculum areas.
Willing to travel: Home Only
Experience: I trained for 4 years at York St. John University. My subject specialisms are English and Literacy, but I also love to teach maths. I have led English and maths Y6 SATS booster sessions, as well as having taught across years 3-6. I also have 5 years of experience of leading English in my last school.
Since leaving teaching and setting up my own tutoring business in October 2020, I have completed a 120-hour TEFL (Teaching English as a Foreign Language) course, as well as other professional development courses. Im passionate about lifelong learning.
DBS Check: Yes

I am now much more confident than I was before when I started the lesson, I can now write English in a much clearer way for other users to read and understand properly. Jemma is a fantastic and pleasant tutor, she knows what she is doing and I will not hesitate to recommend her.
Tutors Response :
Thanks for your lovely feedback Tom. Im really glad that you enjoy the sessions and that youre feeling much more confident already. Tutoring adults isnt something that Ive done before so its great that youd recommend me. Thank you.

Jemma has been invaluable in teaching my daughter who is not overly confident in her own abilities. She is kind, patient and encouraging. Anything my daughter is struggling with at school Jemma always takes the time to include in their lessons. My daughter always looks forward to her lessons. Cant recommend Jemma highly enough.
Tutors Response :
Thank you so much for your lovely feedback! I always look forward to the sessions when Im tutoring your daughter. It is wonderful to see her enthusiasm to learn and her growing confidence. Shes a joy to teach.
