Information about Lindsay
I am a fully qualified teacher with a BA Hons and PGCE. I have taught in primary, secondary, state and private schools. Between teaching in schools and becoming a self-employed private-tutor, I worked as a full-time private-home-tutor for a high-net-worth family. I am married with children and now love working as private-tutor because it gives me a great home/work-life balance whilst still doing the teaching that I love.
Despite having a broad range of teaching skills and experience, as a private-tutor, I have specialised in Key Stage (KS) 2 (Yrs. 3-6) including the exams that the children take within this KS (11+ & Yr. 6 SATs). As a specialist tutor of only one Key Stage, I can maximise and focus all my time and resources into materials and knowledge for this one particular area.
My areas of skill include:
Yr. 3:
* Supporting the step-up from infants-Juniors enabling struggling children to jump ahead with English and maths.
Yrs. 4 & 5:
*11+ prep. (eps. Kent Test but also other counties 11+ and Independent Schools 11+ entrance exams - I do not now tutor for the Medway Test) maths, English, verbal & non-verbal reasoning. The Kent Test makes up the majority of my tutoring work and I have a very high pass rate for this test achieving 100% pass rate for 4/7 years I have been tutoring for this exam including last year.
*General support with English & maths for confidence and progress.
Yr. 6:
*Yr. 6 SATs exams which as well as their teacher assessment will play a big role into which sets they are placed when they start at their chosen secondary school.
*Readying them for the transition into Yr. 7 at their chosen secondary school.
I warmly welcome any enquiries.

Feedback For Lindsay (16)

Lindsay, is an excellent tutor, she has helped my son to pass 11+ Also, we have received a letter that our son is qualified for gramma school. We couldn`t be more happier. She helped us a lot from the start till now, as we are still having lessons and preparing our son for SATS egzam. At the beginning we used to have lessons face to face, but then Covid started, and we moved our lessons online. Ever since we continue to have lessons online even when Covid restrictions was lifted. It saved us a lot of time, quality of the lessons is perfect, even when we on holiday here in UK or abroad, never had a problem. We also, recommended Lindsay to our friends, who`s son was struggling in school. She`s managed to help him go from the very bottom of the class with big struggles and issues and had even been issued with an ECHP. So, the boy step by step start showing big improvements and even passed the 11+ and has already been offered a place at Borden Grammar School ahead of the official letters. I highly recommend Lindsay, she`s great, professional tutor.
