Information About Sara:

Personal Description:

I am reliable, friendly and mature. I am a committed teacher but in the rare occasions that I have some spare time I enjoy reading (anything that allows me to escape reality...wizards, magic and dragons are particular favourites!), playing badminton or tennis, swimming and catching up with much neglected family and friends! I am the proud owner of a Mini Cooper, love driving and listening to music.

Teaching Experience:

My teaching experiences have highlighted a necessity to vary, adapt, reflect and improvise different teaching pedagogies to maximise the accessibility, understanding, progression and attainment encompassing all of the National Curriculum subjects. Applying suitable guidance, not only for academic achievement, but also to provide a stable learning environment where each pupil feels safe, valued, cared for and included. I am currently teaching year 3 in a primary school in Cheshunt but am competent and confident teaching all year groups, KS1 - KS4, covering core and foundation subjects of the National Curriculum. I am the ICT co-ordinator and believe ICT used appropriately can enhance and enthuse learning and understanding. I have taught in schools that vary vastly in demographics with children spanning a broad spectrum of abilities, highly gifted or talented to specific learning difficulties. I relish the daily challenges and the immeasurable rewards that teaching offers.

Tutoring Approach:

I strive to provide an effective and stimulating learning environment which motivates all pupils and captivates their attention; promoting equal opportunities through selecting and demonstrating appropriate teaching techniques; using a range of assessment styles to influence target setting and progression in learning. Tutoring provides a unique opportunity to work with a child on a one-to-one basis, focusing on specific areas of learning and development. I set clear learning objectives to scaffold and support learning. I endeavour to make learning personal, interesting and fun; however, I do have high expectations and will reward hard work at every opportunity. I have successfully tutored GCSE mathematics, KS2 Science for SATs, reading and writing skills (KS2/3) and will be happy to provide references on request.

Qualifications:

• BA Hons in Primary Education 2:2
