(Extra qualifications in early Reading Intervention & Speech and Language Development). I am a qualified teacher with 17 years teaching experience in schools and 4 years as a private tutor. I have extensive experience supporting primary aged children from early years through to Year 6. I trained as a 'Reading Recovery Teacher' during my teaching career (targeted reading intervention which provide
d children to achieve accelerated reading progress) and also received extra training in Speech and Language Development. My approach to tutoring is to devise tailor made, fun and interactive learning activities that will challenge but engage your child to achieve their next steps in learning. I can tailor lessons according to where your child is at and how they learn. This may be using the national curriculum, developmental steps, or simply the curriculum you want for them! I have a friendly, patient and calm approach, as well as enthusiasm to support children in overcoming any learning challenges they may face. For home-educated families, I aim to listen to the individual needs of the families and perhaps seek a more holistic and informal approach in order to make children feel comfortable and motivated. Sessions can be one-to-one or in small group sessions, depending on the families requests or the child's needs.
