Class experience
US Grade 4 - 7
In today's competitive academic landscape, achieving high scores on entrance exams is crucial, especially with top schools demanding more from their students. In these personalised tutoring sessions, once the specific school or exam system is identified, I conduct an initial assessment to pinpoint areas of improvement. This assessment serves as a home learning activity to be independently completed. Subsequently, our sessions are meticulously designed to address these knowledge gaps. This...
This will depend on the needs of the learner and also the content of the exam.
With over 15 years of experience, I have dedicated my career to teaching in mainstream British primary schools, engaging with children aged 4-11. My role has encompassed working with a diverse range of students, from those with additional needs to those identified as gifted and talented. For a decade, I held the prestigious position of Head of English at two distinct schools. In this leadership role, I shouldered the responsibility of steering progress and fostering achievement. As both a teacher and a leader, my unwavering focus has consistently been on aiding children in reaching academic excellence through dynamic, innovative, and engaging lessons. As a private tutor, I have now tutored over 20 children to successfully complete the 11 plus or their school’s entrance exam and achieve a place.

A personalised curriculum ensures that every need is addressed.
Parents must let me know what school (or type of exam system) it is that they want to apply to.
If children are able to type, the lessons work best using Google Docs, so that I can see what they are writing and edit it with them in live time. Please make sure that you have an account set up and logged on for the lesson. If children cannot or do not want to type we can easily use pen and paper, but please make sure that it is a dark pen that I will be able to see on camera. There will also be exam questions to edit in on screen so the lesson works best if children are using hardware that allows them to annotate. Some printed resources may be required, but I will give due notice of these.
