/ Maribeth P.
I worked in Singapore as Marketeer and sale executive for 4 years. I studied online course in the UK. My course focus in Counselling and Psychotherapy and mental awareness subjects.
I also love teaching English subjects to adults.
I have now worked in education for approximately 10 years, starting off voluntary, then as an LSA, then as a teacher which has undoubtably helped achieve a better understanding of the education framework as well as the importance of all people in a child's life. During that time I have worked with children and young adults from 6 weeks to 18 years of age from many different backgrounds. This has enabled me to see where children start off, where they might be currently and where they need to get.
Having 4 children of my own has also helped with this, especially from a SEND/SEMH side due to 3 out of 4 of my own children needing additional help. My second eldest, now 17, was diagnosed with ADD before Covid which had some impact on her education, however her mental health had also suffered. This is something that thankfully she is now on the better side of and after being homeschooled by myself during COVID and the help of her school afterwards meant that she passed all of her GCSE's. My son, now 13, is dyslexic but is learning ways to ensure that this is not a barrier to his learning from help by myself. My youngest daughter, who is 10, has ADHD and is now finding ways to become more independent on a daily basis. I too myself have dyslexia which was not picked up until my teacher training as I have always found ways to overcome the struggles, however this has now given me the gift of being able to see and know the struggles that child with learning disabilities face along with a sympathetic ear to help children in their education.
Throughout my time in education I have worked 1-2-1, in groups and as a class (sometimes bigger). I have worked with school refusers, last chance students, students with SEMH, SEND and children who have EAL. I have worked with children who have been impulsive as well as those who have been unable to express their needs and wants, generally starting with picture cards, visual timetables, colourful semantics and zones of regulation. The list includes but is not limited to;
Children with EHCP's
ADD
ADHD
ASD
Down Syndrome
Cerebral Palsy
Speech and Language difficulties
Global delay
Dyscalculia
Dyslexia
EAL
Dyspraxia
Mild/Moderate/Severe learning difficulties
Tourette's
Various SEMH needs
Various medical disabilities
Mute/non-verbal
I currently already support two children who have both made significant progress, one of which is non verbal, has ASD, under the age of 6 and been delivered via Zoom duE to distance. I moved up TO Lincolnshire in August from down South, and have been trying to find my feet as to which area of education I would like to work in after being a full time primary school teacher, which I loved, however children with additional needs has always been where my heart lies. I have a passion for working with children that need additional help in a mainstream setting where help is not routinely available. Whilst I have some experience of working in a special setting school, my view has always been that children in a special setting school have met a criteria to enable them to have the extra help, however, there are so many children that are missed or unable to have the help that is needed in mainstream school that will unfortunately, in many circumstances, end up without an education due to not 'fitting' a criteria. It is these children, along with those waiting for a placement in a special needs setting, or those children who 'refuse' to work that I feel my heart lies with and where I belong teaching.
I have always prided myself on gaining and maintaining fantastic professional relationships with both students and parents/carers/LSA's in every setting that I have worked in, knowing that the child's views and thoughts are paramount. I take great pride in knowing that all children that I have worked with whether as a class, group or individual have all made progress, no child has ever stopped flourishing whilst under my watchful eye. I always ensure that I build a good professional relationship with the child first which has undoubtably led to the great outcomes, attendance and behaviour of students that I pride myself with.
Sorry, currently unavailable to teach from my home address unless remote.

I am a kind and caring teacher/tutor who believes children should feel confident in everything they do.
I believe tutoring is a great way to show children what they are capable of. With support, dedication and a tailored programme, your child will become more confident and develop a greater love of learning.
I aim to build great relationships which will help your child when concepts might be tricky for them or when they need a boost of encouragement to help build their resilience. I take time to understand gaps in knowledge, teach them to a mastery level before moving on and progressing to ensure you child has a well-rounded understanding of all ideas, concepts and objectives.
Thanks to my extensive experience as an English teacher and enthusiasm, I have successfully worked with students from different backgrounds and ages, such as secondary school students, university students, and adults, fostering their English language skills and soft skills development. This experience gave me the ability to work with people from different backgrounds. Apart from my paid job, I spent most of my time teaching and working with young people from different backgrounds, which also shows that I am willing to challenge myself with the chance to help others.
I have been in education in the UK for over 12 years now. I have always taught English and am currently working in senior leadership in a school in the UK. I enjoy tutoring English to students who need help across the secondary platform and have significant experience at GCSE. Let me know if I can be of any help!

We provide written reports after each session.
Our aim is to unlock the potential of each student we work with, building their confidence and transforming their goals into achievements.

We treat every student as an individual and we care passionately about helping them reach their full academic potential. We value the need for building a student’s confidence and helping them to engage successfully with the subject being tutored. We personalise our whole service to meet the academic needs of all our students and their families.
When students enrol with us they are often really struggling and their parents don’t always know how to help them. From the first meeting we have with the student and their family, we take steps to address the way the student is feeling and help change their perspective and gain some positivity.
We give them the skills to tackle the subject they are struggling with, fill in the gaps in their knowledge and help lead them along a pathway to success.
Our aim is to stretch and challenge all students and develop their thinking and application skills to meet the requirements for the results they want to achieve.
All initial consultations are free to assess your child's requirements.
Brief:
Expert online tuition from an examiner in English, Psychology and History for all levels and abilities including: KS2, KS3, KS3, KS4, KS5. IELTS, IGCSE/GCSE, A Levels, University students, Academic and Business English
Specialist in Home-educated students and students struggling with understanding knowledge and acquiring skills.
I have PGCE, MA in Literature, MSc in Psychology and TESOL
I am an examiner for many Boards over many decades so have an unique insight into exams.
Detailed:
If you are aiming to achieve a top grade in exams, want to gain a greater understanding of sentences or learn quick strategies for memorising your literature texts, then I can help.
I use lots of films clips and audio to reinforce understanding which students enjoy. I am not a Powerpoint tutor as I feel this isn't teaching but lecturing and that's not my style. I may dip into the odd Powerpoint slide but this will be to support your learning in a purposeful way but I rarely do this. Another difference is I offer weekly homework which is marked with understandable comments. Many parents choose to have this service too as their children often don't have regular or systematically marked homework so it is a way of regularly assessing so I can pick up any issues early.
I also have a TESOL qualification which means I have expert knowledge of English language so can competently teach foreign language students or I can draw on this knowledge to clarify rules of grammar etc. With respect to older students, I frequently teach Academic English ,whether it is helping with dissertations or preparing for IELTS.
My second specialism is Psychology and I teach this from GCSE through to and including Postgraduates as I have a MSc in Psychology. This also supports any other subject I teach as I have a detailed understanding of how memory and learning interact. It also informs me when building strategies for those who suffer from exam nerves, anxiety or barriers generally with their learning.
I have a gsoh and parents often comment on laughter coming from the room when I'm tutoring so very quiet or introverted students can be assured I'm very human and whilst I have the highest skills and knowledge, I struggled when at school so I'm always supportive and caring in my approach.
Finally, I teach many home-educated youngsters so know how to support the whole family in any challenges they may face.
I do hope to hear from you soon. Sally
