After achieving QTS in 1999, I taught in several primary schools for five years, covering all ages (from Nursery to Year 6) and a wide range of abilities (from working towards level 1 up to level 6), in the full range of core and foundation subjects. However, having a predominantly financial/ numerical background, I decided to focus my teaching on mathematics and commenced teaching mathematics in secondary schools from September 2004, covering a wide range of abilities from below NC level 3 to GCSE Higher level.
From May 2007 to August 2019, I was employed by Kip McGrath (Keighley), tutoring students (during evenings and on Saturdays) in Maths (aged 6 to 18 years, at KS1 level up to GCSE Higher level), English (aged 6 to 11 years, at KS1 &2) and in verbal and non-verbal reasoning, in preparation for 11+ High School Entrance Exams. This involved supporting students in small groups working on individual, predominantly computer-based, learning programmes, to enable them to catch-up or improve their skills in specific areas, whilst working towards their personal targets/ goals, e.g. in KS2 SATs, 11+ Entrance Exams or GCSE exams. This experience inspired me to set up my own private tutoring business, which I have been running since April 2014, providing tuition to individual students in maths (aged 7 – 18+), English (ages 7-13), preparing students (aged 9/12) for local High School Entrance Exams and preparing adult learners for Functional Skills exams in both Literacy and Numeracy.
Having studied many courses covering a wide range of disabilities, including ASD, Dyslexia, ADHD and Sensory Processing Disorder, I believe I have a good understanding of, and empathy for, students with SEND and SEMH. To this end, I have taught many students with a range of learning difficulties/ barriers to learning and feel that I have made a considerable difference to each student’s enjoyment of mathematics and life-outcomes. I believe that my own enjoyment of learning enables me to encourage and motivate others to successfully engage in the learning process.
During the Covid-19 pandemic, I have delivered many lessons via Skype and Zoom and feel that I have become confident and competent in using these platforms for teaching students remotely and would be happy to continue to do so if required.

As a professional qualified teacher I have worked in a wide range of educational establishments teaching various levels of ability and students with disabilities for decades. I have successfully tutored 121 and taught English to small group workshops in different environments. I believe all learning must be fun and my methods enable students to be motivated, achieve and engage in their learning. My passion for teaching is reflected in my long years of successful experience and student achievements. In addition, I have taught adults in tertiary education and ESOL learners, for example in migrant communities to integrate within British society. I am also available to help and proof-read educational texts such as disertations for degree level students.

Having studied English Literature and Language at Leeds University, I then combined my passion for English with my passion for helping young people and became a school teacher.
During my time as a teacher I have progressed to the point where I now lead a large English faculty in a secondary school. I have over 15 years of teaching both English Literature ans Language and regularly see students under my tutelage achieve excellent results at both GCSE and A Level.
I have developed a range of methods and techniques to ensure students are engaged with their learning - when this happens, any barriers to learning are broken down and rapid progress can take place.

I have been teaching for 10 years in Harrogate. My passion lies in the fun, play based learning, which engages children and accelerates learning. Our learning will take place outside as much as possible. Before sessions commence, I will have a detailed discussion with the child's parents, to gather as much information as possible, and so that I can tailor our learning to a theme which suits a child's interest.

I have been teaching for 14 years. My experience has been across primary aged children but mainly in Reception, year 1 and year 2. I have a 6-year-old boy of my own and we never stop learning together through play and more recently through formal learning! My experience allows me to adjust my teaching style to suit all types of learners. I LOVE what I do and as a learner myself I am always striving for the best, evaluating the way that I work and developing my practice. I love meeting new people and watching children grow and learn. My home is suitable and inviting for anyone and I offer a wide range of activities that support learning about a range of concepts in all subjects. This includes foundation subjects as well as core subjects. I would be very excited to have the opportunity to teach you.

Hello, I'm Jess and welcome to my profile!
I am a full-time Primary Teacher with a mathematics specialism. When not in my classroom, I offer online lessons for all primary-aged children in subjects ranging from Maths, English and Science. I am down to earth and very approachable by both children and adults. I believe learning should be relatable, memorable and most importantly, fun. Each of my lessons build on each other to enable progression and sustained learning through different modes of teaching.
After just one year of tutoring I have produced a fantastic portfolio of reviews from past clients. Please see just a few below.
EK - "Jess adapts her style to suit the mood. This changes session by session and, by the end of the session, my daughter always has a huge smile on her face and sense of self accomplishment of what she's just achieved in her private session."
JH - "Jess is absoloutely fantastic with my son, she's quickly able to identify areas of focus and provide targetted support. It has been great to see James' confidence grow week on week."
I provide online tutoring with entails the use of a visualiser, visual manipulatives (maths) and online teacher resources to provide targeted support.
What would my first session look like? I often use the first session as a get to know you session along side a small 'quiz'. This is so there is mutual respect and tust between myself and the tutee as I beleive it is so crutial that children feel comfortable in asking questions about their learning without hesitation. This session also facilitates the next learning step for the subsequent lesson as gaps in understanding can be identified and targeted.
Each session lasts 45 minutes for £25

I have successfully completed the Postgraduate Certificate in Education (PGCE) in Bradford College (Via University of Bolton), with a degree qualification of second class first honours. I believe I possess the necessary attributes to provide a successful contribution in today’s education system.
My passion for Teaching has been enriched through my study of the field and work experience. I find working with children intellectually stimulating and relish the variety and challenges faced on a daily basis. Working under pressure motivates me to strive for success and I am able to effectively apply logic and problem-solving ability to complex as well as simple problems in a stimulating environment, whether in a team or using my own initiative.
I firmly believe that education helps children to prosper and reach higher levels of attainment, not only do they receive academic knowledge whilst studying but gain important life skills. This can be used outside of the classroom, I believe education is an essential stage of life everyone must go through.
I have gained valuable experience in tutoring, teaching assistant, prep-work and am naturally confident that my skills and personal style are invaluable to successfully completing the PGCE course and subsequently become a successful teacher.
My experiences have enabled me to develop a variety of transferable skills. Studying PGCE Primary has provided me with foundation of basic knowledge and skills; such as researching, with attention to detail and the ability to analyse. I have learnt to be adaptable and flexible to reflect changes in working practice. Furthermore, my voluntary work and tutoring has given me the opportunity to work with a diverse range of children and build my connection with the children i work with therefore i would like to continue my experience in tutoring and provide students with the extra help that they are seeking for.
