I am a dedicated educator with a strong background in teaching and a passion for supporting children’s growth and learning. Holding a PGCE in Primary Education and a BSc in Business Economics, I bring a unique blend of pedagogical and occupational knowledge to my teaching approach.
A core focus for my private tuition is in preparing students for entrance exams. I run many of the Hyde Tutoring 10+ and 11+ revision courses. I also teach the weekly group 10+ and 11+ English and maths class. As a a year 6 school teacher and 11+ tutor, I am very much aware of the expectations for students at the end of KS2 and the requirements to excel in 11+ exams. I have a very good understanding of the London independent and grammar schools and the requirements to succeed in each school’s entrance exams. I tutor students in English, maths and reasoning. I have tutored many students in reasoning and have developed a very good understanding of the reasoning exams and the styles of questions the students need to master and therefore I consider myself to be an 11+ reasoning specialist.
With over 10 years of experience in education, I have a proven track record in preparing students for SATs years, providing private tutoring, and working with children who have special educational needs (SEND). My experience with SEND children has equipped me with valuable insights into tailored teaching strategies and support that can make a significant difference in their learning journeys.
Furthermore, my commitment to inclusive education extends to supporting students with EAL needs. I hold an NPQML (National Professional Qualification for Middle Leadership), which was centred on equipping teachers with the skills and knowledge to effectively teach children with EAL. I understand the unique challenges these students face and have the expertise to provide them with the necessary guidance and support to succeed in their academic pursuits. My mission is to empower every child to reach their full potential, and I’m dedicated to delivering the best educational experience for each and every student, regardless of their learning needs.
