WOW! I am so grateful for the overwhelming response for September! ๐โจ
โWeโve had so many enquiries for the new academic year and it honestly means the world! ๐ Iโm technically still on maternity leave, so Iโm keeping my intake lighter this year while I start to manage juggling work, mum-of-two life and tutoring!๐
โTutoring is something I value way too much to give up, but to keep the quality high (and my sanity intact!), spaces are super limited! If youโre looking for a tutor and don't mind a bit of flexibility with scheduling, definitely reach out soonโIโm currently down to just 1 ONLINE space left (with some flexibility!).
โThank you all so much for the continuous support and patience! ๐
๐ฉ Direct message to secure the last spot!

๐โจ September Tutoring Spaces Are Now Open! โจ๐
Although I'm technically still on maternity leave from my regular job ๐ถ๐, I've already had lots of messages asking about September availability... so I've decided to officially open my books! ๐
I have limited spaces available for:
๐ป Online tutoring
๐ In-person tutoring (Hull & East Riding)
I work with primary-aged children from Year 2 upwards, offering friendly, personalised support to help children grow in confidence and reach their full potential ๐๐
As I'm balancing tutoring alongside maternity leave, availability is very limited, so if you'd like to secure a September slot, please get in touch as soon as possible ๐๏ธ๐
๐ฉ Send me a message today to discuss availability or ask any questions - I'd love to help! ๐

Huge congratulations to this learner for earning a Multiplication Tables Check Award at school! ๐๐
โThis Y4 test is a super tricky one, it is a serious test of patience and recall, but seeing all that hard work, determination and perseverance pay off makes every practice session worth it! ๐ง โก From quick-fire practice, flash cards, multiplication pop-its, endless hours on TTRS, this achievement is so well deserved!
โSo proud of the fantastic progress especially as this learner struggled so much at the beginning, but all the effort has made it all worth it โonward and upwards into Y5! ๐๐โ๏ธ

Focused on GPS (Grammar, Punctuation and Spelling) in this tutoring session! ๐โจ
โGrammar can easily feel dry or repetitive, but putting the rules into action makes all the difference! We tackled tricky word spellings, mastered placing commas in lists and leveled up simple descriptions using expanded noun phrases! Incredible effort & great focus as always! โ๏ธ๐

Another fab session with this weekly learner, this time diving into interpreting charts and line graphs! ๐๐
โReading data can feel a bit overwhelming at first with all the axes, tally marks and keys to track. However, once we broke it down what the pictures and lines are actually telling us โwhether it's tracking temperatures, growth over time, or favourite ice cream flavours ๐ฆโit all starts to click! Huge well done for staying focused in this super hot weather โ๏ธ following the clues and reading those graphs! ๐โญ

Had a great tutoring session working through fractions, decimals and percentages with this learner! ๐ง โจ
Maths can feel like a total maze sometimes, but breaking things down step-by-step on the whiteboard made all the difference for this learner! Seeing those "aha!" moments makes it all worth it!๐ก
Super proud of the focus and hard work put in especially during the holidays! ๐๐

โจ๏ธ RECAPPING โจ๏ธ
Just the same as in the classroom, I always do some recapping of areas we've covered, especially with concepts the learner has struggled with.

Apostrophes recap - one of my favourite sessions because people just use them everywhere there's an 's' and that's not always correct!
