Meeting once a week, we’ll focus on key areas like arithmetic, fractions, and basic geometry, helping students catch up and gain confidence in math. Join us to learn, grow, and succeed together! Join our weekly online class tailored for 11-15 year olds working on foundational concepts typically taught to 7-11-year-olds. Through interactive lessons and a supportive environment, we help students build confidence and master essential math skills. Each lesson will cover two areas of math, to allow for repetition of concepts. Lessons will start with direct instruction from me, a qualified and experienced classroom teacher. We will explore examples of the topic together. Learners will then move on to trying some independent work, all the while being able to ask me for extra help and support. The lessons delivered will come from curriculum typically taught from ages 7-11 years, to enable your learner to build fundamental skills and confidence. Example lessons will include: *Addition and Naming Shapes* *Subtraction and Coordinates* *Multiplication and Fractions* *Division and Angles*

Teacher expertise and credentials
Non-US Teaching Certificate in Elementary Education
Bachelor's Degree in Education from University of Brighton
I'm Ms. Riot, a creative teacher (certified, qualified and experienced) from London, England. My teaching adventure began at university with the completion of my 4-year degree (Bachelor of Arts with Honours in Primary Education) back in 2007.
In the UK, we achieve our QTS (Qualified Teacher Status) through additional exams and proven experience which I also achieved in 2007. My dissertation allowed me to carry out research into how we can motivate young learners to want to read more. I completed one of my student teaching placements in Arizona, USA and I worked as the Literacy Lead for two summers at a not-for-profit camp in New York, USA.
As an elementary classroom teacher, I developed creative classrooms where students felt safe enough to fail. My passion for reading also allowed me to develop a new career as a high school librarian, teaching reading lessons across the school. I have also taught students English up to the age of 16 at a prestigious online school.
More recently, I have worked within the learning department in a large museum, teaching at a range of online schools and designing curriculum for education resource companies. I also deliver lectures to trainee teachers.
At the heart of my teaching philosophy lies a belief that learning should be an adventure, sprinkled with curiosity and laughter. We can be serious about learning without it always being too serious.Reviews
