Khadijia - Blackburn tutor






Information About Khadijia:


Personal Description:

I am a multi-lingual Muslim mother of 3 children ranging from 13 to 19 years in age and have a mature knowledge and experience of working and bringing up children both at a personal and professional level.

The skill of working with children of various age groups and abilities during my studies for my degree in Teaching and Learning Support (Primary). has promoted my knowledge and understanding of the primary school curriculum, English as an additional language, child development and special educational needs.



Teaching Experience:

My part-time voluntary work at a primary School over 3 years enabled me to carry out school based tasks, placements and assignments - a requirement for my degree. Here I supported teachers by providing additional support to pupils with English as an Additional Language, learning needs, worked with pupils on an individual basis and small groups, liaised with parents on day to day issues regarding children's developments and progress.

During my employment for 4 years, as a year 6 teacher at an Islamic School I was able to implement all the guidance from my placement, demonstrate the ability to work as a team member and enhance my performance at a professional level. Working as a non-qualified teacher I carried out the full range of duties of a qualified teacher including preparation, planning, working, assessing and recording children's progress to enhance teaching and learning.

I was also involved in preparation and delivery of National Sats, ran after school booster classes, provide feedback to parent's on pupil progress through reports and discussions at parent's evenings. Due to the context in which I worked my position to transmit an advisory role to challenging issues both at educational level and community level necessitate to act and carryout judgements and use my own initiative to be fair firm and without prejudice.

Working at Beardwood High School widened my horizon in meeting and associating my experiential work to broader challenges in dealing with pupils of a higher age group with varied social and behavioural issues. My past experience from the Islamic School benefited me with the opportunity to carry out supply work for the school during the five weeks of a teacher's absence.



Tutoring Approach:

As my work is closely linked to home and the community, the requirement to apply advice and solutions with confidentiality strengthens the need to use initiative and flexibility with sensitivity at all times ensuring an adaptable approach when working with children. My speciality lies in working with EAL and special needs children.

Hence i feel that the range of work experience I hold facilitates me to follow the guidelines, rules and regulations along with commitment towards providing the best possible support and service. My school record and reference reflects my ability to maintain punctuality, professionalism and be a role model by setting a good example in the way I portray myself through my communication skills, teaching strategies, dress code and how I conduct my flexible manner with spontaneity to differing learning needs.

Experience suggests that children require additional tutoring to enable them to meet potential grades,
help with exam preparations, develop knowledge and understanding through one to one support, or a child may require specific support to enhance their learning needs.

I am available to provide tutoring from my home.
