Hayley - Guildford tutor






Information About Hayley:


Personal Description:

I am a trained teacher, with a degree (2:1) in Psychology, from the University of Reading, and a PGCE in Advanced Early Years. I have classroom experience, specifically in Early Years and Key Stage One. I am currently working as a Children's Pastor and so have regular contact with children of primary school age.

I have been working with children since I was 16, babysitting, tutoring, running and leading activity groups and teaching. My job currently doesn't give me time to teach full time, so I am tutoring to keep myself in the education loop.

I have a CRB Enhanced Disclosure Certificate.



Teaching Experience:

I have always had an interest in teaching and have experience dating back to my own school days where I would choose to work in schools during work experience, or volunteer to help whenever I could. I based my psychology dissertation around language development in children and spent time working in schools.

On an official basis I am a trained teacher with some classroom experience. During my training I had placements in Foundation Stage and Key Stage One settings.



Tutoring Approach:

My approach to tutoring is to base it around the needs of the individual needs of the client.

My aims are to build students confidence in their abilities and to raise their expectations with challenging, pupil centered and rewarding lessons, producing great results. I am interested in helping all primary aged children, from children who may struggle in specific areas, those who need help with homework, or those who need to be pushed forward in their abilities.

I am very patient and enjoy helping others to learn.
I can provide extra tuition to keep children focused during holidays.
