About Me
I am a dedicated and experienced teacher from London with over 6 years of experience in both tuition and classroom teaching. I currently teach a Year 3 class and have extensive experience working with children across different educational settings, including private, public, mainstream, and SEN schools. I hold a valid DBS Enhanced Check, ensuring full safeguarding compliance.
I've been consistently praised for my patient and approachable teaching style, which helps make learning an enjoyable experience for my pupils. I work with children from Pre-Reception age up to Year 9, tailoring my tuition services to meet each child's unique needs.
My approach is hands-on, and I am deeply committed to helping children grow and succeed academically and personally. In addition to traditional subjects, I focus on enhancing pupils' communication, confidence, creativity, attention span, and problem-solving skills.
