Evaluación de dominio

1 hora por semana. It would be ideal for learners to have completed some reading prior to each lesson. This is encouraged but not mandatory. I design classes to be turn-up-and-learn if needed.

Teens will get a chance to boost their confidence with reading and text analysis, whilst enjoying learning in a way that feels engaging and accessible.

These small group classes will run even with one enrolled learner, so you have no worries about a class being cancelled. If your learner would prefer not to work in a 1-on-1 class, I am happy to refund the lesson, should no other learners enroll.

Learners will gain a variety of skills and insights, both in terms of their understanding of texts and their ability to express their own viewpoints.

🏵️Critical Reading and Analysis🏵️
-----> Identifying Persuasive Techniques: Students will learn to identify and analyze rhetorical strategies (like logos, ethos, and pathos) used in speeches and texts that argue for social change or advocate for a cause.
----->Understanding Point of View: They will develop the ability to understand different perspectives, including how and why speakers or writers take a stand on specific issues.

🏵️Empathy and Awareness🏵️
----->Building Empathy: By examining texts on social justice, advocacy, and personal courage, students will become more empathetic to the struggles and challenges faced by others.
----->Awareness of Social Issues: They will gain greater awareness of social and global issues like gender equality, civil rights, environmental activism, and other movements, fostering a broader understanding of the world.

The texts covered are age appropriate to provide the right level of engagement from teens. Learners will not be required to write long responses, as this course is designed for those who may need some extra support and/or encouragement. The focus is on confidence and encouragement. All written work will be be completed digitally during the lesson. No paper or pens will be required.

There will be suggested pre-reading of texts, as the lessons will be of most value with this pre-reading completed. However, learners can still access the lessons even without this pre-reading.

The texts discussed over the 8 lessons are:
🌺The 1843 poem, "The Song of the shirt" by Thomas Hood
🌺The 1906 novel, 'The Jungle' by Upton Sinclair
🌺The 1966 TV play, "Cathy Come Home" by Jeremy Sandford
🌺The 2017 song, "Blinded by Your Grace" by Stormzy
🌺The 2023 article, "Building on the greenbelt will not solve the housing crisis" by Kunie Barker
🌺The 1945 novel, "Animal Farm" by George Orwell
🌺The 2016 speech from Michelle Obama on the "Let Girls Learn Initiative"
🌺The 2022 article, "Just Stop Oil protesters are incapable of winning hearts and minds" by Tom Gomez
🌺The 2022 article, "My suffragette grandmothers are now seen as heroes. Today’s climate protesters will be too" by Helen Pankhurst
🌺The 1789 poem, "The Chimney Sweeper" by William Blake

I teach ELA and Math to teens in a supportive, confidence-building environment designed for those who need extra academic support.

Many of my students see me multiple times a week, which helps create a safe, consistent space where they feel comfortable taking risks and developing their skills.

I work with learners aged 13-18, focusing on core foundational skills typically taught to 10-13-year-olds. Strengthening these fundamentals allows students to build confidence, close learning gaps, and make real academic progress.

👋 I am an experienced teacher passionate about helping teens grow in confidence and skills. Since qualifying as a teacher in 2007, I’ve worked around the world, taught in classrooms and online, and even developed educational resources for schools and museums.

🌈 I specialize in teaching home-educated teens who need extra support to feel confident with core subjects like English (spelling, grammar, writing, book studies) and other topics like math, history, RE and art. My lessons are designed to meet students where they are, focusing on essential skills often taught at earlier grade levels to help them succeed.

✨ My classroom is a safe, low-pressure space where students can try, grow, and thrive. Whether your teen prefers cameras off, using chat, or just listening, I adapt my teaching to support them. As a neurodivergent adult, I welcome all students exactly as they are and have extensive experience teaching neurodivergent learners.

📚 Learning with me is structured yet flexible, focusing on real progress. I help students build essential skills step by step, creating a foundation they can rely on to tackle future challenges with confidence.
