1-on-1 Private Teaching: Boosting Skills & Confidence for Teens

Hi, I’m Ms Riot, an experienced classroom teacher specializing in small-group online classes for home-educated teens. I teach ELA subjects like spelling, grammar, book studies, comprehension and writing units, as well as some math, history, RE, art and science classes. My lessons help students build essential skills and develop confidence and the teens I work with benefit from exploring core content often taught in lower grades. This allows a safe space to give things a try and experience success to build and grow from.


👋 I'm  a certified classroom teacher dedicated to helping teens grow and succeed. I qualified as a teacher in 2007 with my Bachelor of Arts (with Honours) in Primary Education and certified with my Qualified Teacher Status (QTS). Here in the UK, I am certified to teach from 5-18 years old.

🌏I have taught around the world, including at a not-for-profit summer camp in New York, volunteering in Kenya and India, and completing a teaching placement in Arizona.

🏫As a 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, supporting teens who had not discovered that a library could be a space for them. 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, supporting them to develop their practice.

🖥️I have been teaching online for a year, for different schools and platforms.
