Information about Sophie
Hi, my name is Sophie and I am in the final year of my BSc in Speech and Language Therapy, with a view to specialising in paediatrics.
I have studied the importance of language acquisition and how these skills evolve, enabling children to produce words and sentences which facilitate communication. In addition I have an in- depth understanding of linguistics - particularly the grammar, structures and concepts that form the English language. Throughout my course I have worked with children who have speech, language and communication needs, this included targeted pronunciation practice to ensure that they are able to articulate and express themselves clearly.
Previously, I have tutored English in Early Years through to KS3 in both the home and school environment where I have focused on phonics, spelling, grammar, literacy and comprehension. I am also TEFL qualified and have delivered lessons to Spanish EAL children. Having spent my primary years abroad I appreciate how isolating it can be when you are unable to communicate effectively with your peers.
I am positive, professional and determined to find the best strategies to support and improve your childs expressive, receptive and written language skills, by taking a child-centred approach I hope to make learning as interactive and fun as possible.

Experience: I have previously tutored both primary and secondary in English and taught EAL children English in Spain.
Throughout my time at university I have been on placements in the community supporting children with speech and language difficulties. I have also trained and can deliver the I CAN Early Talk Boost programme which aims to develop childrens language skills and narrow the gap between them and their peers specifically young children with their delayed language.
