Information about Mark
Having taught primary-age children in North Yorkshire schools for 21 years, I will now help your child build their confidence and reach their potential through regular, high-quality tutoring. I enjoy seeing children achieve new skills and understanding, particularly with areas they found challenging in the past, and I look forward to continuing this work as a tutor for your child. I usually work in the child`s own home and feed back to parents after every session.
We start with a chat on the phone to collect information about your child`s strengths, confidence and areas to develop, along with your own needs and expectations. I will also seek information from reports and assessments so that I can prepare a personalised plan in time for the first session, with targets to aim for along the way.
I plan varied, interactive sessions using mental activities, games, written tasks, educational apps, websites... whichever is the best tool for learning available. I can also provide further activities and websites to practise through the week.
I am married and a dad to three children, who all enjoy family life together and understand the need for a good work ethic and strong core skills. I have a full enhanced CRB (DBS) certificate and full references.
Availability: I can provide sessions of 45 or 60 minutes to best suit your child`s age and needs. These can be provided during school hours or after school.
Willing to travel: 5 miles
Experience: I taught in North Yorkshire primary schools for over 21 years. For the last 12 years this was as headteacher at a village school with a substantial teaching commitment, in both KS1 and KS2. I have also provided booster sessions for KS2 pupils and supported children with SEND, including difficulties with reading, writing, spelling and mathematics. I now tutor all ages up to age 14.
