Personal Description: I have recently retired after 37 years in Education. My most recent job was a Senior Lecture at a University trading teachers. Previous to that I was a full time teaching Deputy Head Teacher and I taught year 6 for 16 years. My qualifications include masters in Education, B.Ed (Hons) with distinction in teaching practice and National Professsional Qualification for Headship. I have grown up children as well as young grandchildren. I have recently retired to the Padstow area after spending the last 30 years coming here on holiday. |
Teaching Experience: During my career I have taught all age groups but specialised in year 6 for 16 years since SATs were introduced. I am particularly passionate about Maths and really enjoy teaching number. I have also trained as a Y6 Science marker, so am able to offer advice on exam technique and mark scheme for this subject. I also have vast experience of Y6 booster classes and one-to-one tuition. I have recently retired from ecturing in Primary and Early Years Mathematics Education on the Primary Mathematics modules of various Initial Teacher Training degree courses at Edge Hill University, Ormskirk. |
Tutoring Approach: I aim for my sessions to be fun but informative and productive. I believe pace at the child's level is the key to progress. I am aware of the methods taught in Primary Schools today, so your child won't be confused by yet another way of multiplying or dividing! Confidence boosting is a priority to me. |

Personal Description: Hi. Experienced secondary school teacher. Currently on maternity leave. |
Teaching Experience: I have taught in secondary schools for 7 years. My expertise is in achieving band 9's, the highest awarded grade. However, I also pride myself in my ability to support and help students reach their own personal targets. For dyslexic students I have created resources to support them in written exams, particularly in drama. I have taught GCSE drama (edexcel exam board) for 6 years and GCSE sociology (aqa exam board for 2 years. Many of my students have achieved band 9s in both of these subjects. I trained as a drama teacher originally but extended my skills set to also be able to teach GCSE sociology. I am also qualified to teach a level drama although I have not taught this in a few years. |
Tutoring Approach: Student led. I will adapt my teaching style to suit the students learning style. |
