Sophie

I am a nurturing, encouraging and experienced teacher with the ability to tutor all primary aged children.

I thoroughly enjoy seeing pupils that I teach make good progress whether that is academic progress; an increase in confidence or developing their self-belief. My subject knowledge is excellent - particularly in maths and English with a focus on end of key stage SATs expectations.

I believe that tutoring should be completely personalised for each pupil with individual plans, resources and expectations. Building a good rapport and positive relationship is hugely important to me and I will always endeavour to make my pupils feel at ease.

Availability: Evenings and weekends.

Willing to travel: 5 miles

Experience: I am a qualified, highly motivated and dedicated tutor with a teaching specialism in Primary Education; I have a total of 13 years experience which includes being a class teacher and year group leader in years 3, 4, 5 and 6.

I have good experience of working with children with specific educational needs where individualised support plans have been put in place; learning barriers have been identified and appropriate scaffolding has been used.

I have a thorough understanding of the National Primary Curriculum (English and Maths) and specialist subject knowledge of the Maths Mastery Scheme. I also have extensive experience in preparing pupils for end of term examinations and administering National Curriculum Tests such as SATs.
