Helping Students Build Confidence, Achieve Success & Unlock Their Potential
As a qualified UK teacher with 15 years of experience, I specialize in Primary, Secondary, and GCSE education across maths, English, and science. Holding a PGCE and QTS, I have taught in mainstream schools, special educational needs (SEN) provisions, and diverse learning environments, ensuring that students of all backgrounds and abilities receive the support they need to succeed.
I have extensive experience working with students with autism, ADHD, dyslexia, and other special educational needs (SEN), using tailored strategies to help them overcome learning barriers. Every child learns differently, and my individualized approach ensures that each student gains confidence, develops a deep understanding of key concepts, and excels academically.
Why Choose My Approach? ✅ Personalized, Student-Centered Learning
Many students struggle in traditional classroom settings because they don’t receive individual attention. I take a tailored approach, designing lesson plans that cater to each student’s unique learning style. Whether they need reinforcement in certain subjects or are preparing for major exams, my structured yet flexible lessons ensure maximum engagement and retention.
✅ Building Confidence & Independence
Success in academics isn’t just about getting the right answers—it’s about building confidence and problem-solving skills. Many students fear maths or struggle with English because they lack self-belief. I focus on instilling a growth mindset, helping students feel capable, motivated, and ready to take on challenges.
✅ Expert Exam Preparation – GCSE, A-Level & Beyond
Preparing for GCSEs, A-Levels, and entrance exams can be stressful for both students and parents. My tutoring approach includes: ✔ Effective revision strategies – Teaching students how to study smarter, not harder. ✔ Time management techniques – Helping them structure revision for maximum efficiency. ✔ Exam technique coaching – Training students on how to approach different types of questions. ✔ Regular progress assessments – Identifying strengths and areas for improvement.
✅ Proven SEN & Autism Support
Having taught in SEN provisions and mainstream schools, I understand the unique challenges faced by students with autism, ADHD, dyslexia, and processing difficulties. I provide: ✔ Sensory-friendly learning techniques to help students focus and stay engaged. ✔ Structured lessons with clear routines to reduce anxiety and build consistency. ✔ Patience, encouragement, and a positive learning environment where students feel valued and supported.

-Our lessons- We will set our goals as soon as we begin working together, identifying what you want to get out of our sessions and making a plan to work toward this. Once we know what outcome we are aiming for, we will use a wide variety of techniques to bring your goals to life. In particular, we will draw on real life texts and case studies to make sure that your understanding is as well rounded as possible. If you are aiming towards taking a certain exam, we will also draw heavily on past paper questions and example answers, which we will assess together to identify their strengths and weaknesses and to understand how you can progress. In business or general contexts, we will work together to ensure we build the specific skills you are looking for. In general, I will ask you to complete a couple of short exercises in between sessions. We will then discuss these together to understand our next steps. -My background- I am currently working towards my Master's degree in Communication Strategies, having previously achieved a first class BA (Hons) in English and Drama from Queen Mary University London. I was also selected to present my thesis research at the National Conference for Undergraduate Research. During my studies, I supported students with essay writing, study skills and proof reading, further developing my tutoring skills. Following my degree, I worked at a boarding school in Oxford where I worked with international students from around the world to help them to get the most from their studies and to build their English language skills.

I originally trained and worked as a secondary school English teacher, but I found the pressure in schools led to teachers being overwhelmed with paperwork and the teaching element almost became a lesser priority. Now I prefer to focus on private tuition where my primary aim is teaching and enabling students to achieve. At Perfect Plus Tutoring, we strive to create an academic atmosphere which is enjoyable as well as beneficial. I offer private tuition to students in North Kent, Medway and Maidstone areas.
I have a team of tutors who are all DBS checked and either currently teach or have taught in schools.

I am a qualified English teacher and have been teaching English literature and language GCSE in a secondary school for over 10 years. I am also curriculum lead and have a wide understanding and experience in the support a student needs to develop their skills for English studies. Due to COVID-19 I may aware of the need for online teaching for students who are absent from school and may need the additional support at home to enhance their development for English GCSE. My teaching will provide this support for students.

As mentioned, I'm currently a student who is about to enter Sixth Form at the beginning of the next academic term. As a teacher, l portray myself to be very calm, considerate and patient. I have developed such a diverse skillset from being both a proud older sibling and an incredible teacher to many of my friends and relatives of whom would reinforce my words. Likewise, I'm a very friendly, caring and understanding young lady who enjoys developing new connections and supporting others to the best of my abilities! This is reflected in my style of teaching as I enjoy elaborating further on points students may not quite grasp at first glance as well as providing a fun and inclusive environment where students on feel they are able to work to their full potential without fear of judgement for whatever reason! Although I'm just entering Sixth Form, l believe that my teaching capabilities are just as elaborate and enlightening as someone of a higher qualification. As an aspiring teacher, l acquire excellent communication skills which allow students to feel comfortable in the created learning environment moreover they're more likely to thrive with a humerous and thoughtful teacher. Therefore, l hope that you entrust me to provide quality education to your child while also developing their social skills and general confidence. Thank you for reading!
