Play games and read high quality texts together to make learning fun

Tutoring
Primary Curriculum (3-11 year olds)

Reading

I nurture a love for reading through engaging activities and targeted phonics teaching. I ensure pupils read texts at their reading level and support them to develop their accuracy, fluency and expression. I expose pupils to a variety of different books to promote and foster a life long love of literature.

Writing

I develop writing skills with fun and interactive transcription and composition activities. I teach and develop fine motor and handwriting skills to ensure a strong foundation and teach pupils spelling and grammar rules in line with the EYFS, KS1 and KS2 curriculum.

Mathematics

I build students understanding of shape and number using the CPA method: Concrete, Pictorial, Abstract. I teach using manipulatives to ensure my students develop depth and breadth across the primary maths curriculum.
