I went into teaching as it has always been my passion to try to make a difference in children's lives.
After careful consideration I decided to leave mainstream education and set up my own learning centre using kinaesthetic activities with play therapy.
The centre also offers meditation in order to promote wellbeing in body, mind and spirit.
I believe children are all individual and no two children are the same.
My motto is "when a flower doesn't bloom you fix the environment in which it grows, not the flower"
English, English Literature, and Maths lessons in Devizes, UK.
As a passionate licensed teacher, my primary goal is to motivate and guide students to achieve excellence and exceed their own personal limits using diverse up-to-date pedagogical strategies.
I am currently a PhD student in Education at the University of Bath, Bath Somerset.
I worked as an ESL and SEN Teacher for the past 5 years in Japan teaching both online and in-person, after concluding a post-graduate educational research program at Naruto University of Education, Japan. I also have a Post-Graduate Diploma in Education degree (National Teachers' Institute, Nigeria) and a www.*** in Botany (Second Class Upper Honors) from Nnamdi Azikiwe University , Awka, Nigeria.
Prior to that, I had taught for five years at The Centagon International School (TCIS), Abuja and for two years at Rainbow International College, Surulere, Lagos.
In addition to striving to instill a love of learning and making learning exciting and interesting, I utilize activities according to curriculum requirements, and expand on previous knowledge while encouraging students to explore new and interesting possibilities. I also spur students to construct their own learning in an environment that stimulates and helps them realize their full potential.
Having taught in international multicultural schools, I have had some excellent results with a wide range of learners who had had a history/background of 'not-so-good' performance in Math, English and Sciences. A good number of my students who had challenges in core aspects now hit on-levels and above-levels with ease, confidence, and delight.
With lots of experience preparing children for 7+,11+ and 13+ exams, I intend to combine my wealth of teaching experience with my ability as a compassionate, enthusiastic, innovative teacher in order to help your child achieve and exceed their goals.
I look forward to the opportunity of meeting with you!

Just Learning Plus
With all my years of teaching English, I learnt very quickly that each student is different. The purpose for why someone learns English can equally vary from student to student.
With that said my lessons are always tailored to the students individual needs. What is a constant and essentially the driving force to any of my lessons is the dynamic, engaging, creative and most important of all the fun factor. For any student that enjoys and looks forward to their class is a student that is destined to learn more.
Whether a student is learning English to pass their IELTS so they can study in the UK. Perhaps it could be Business English for any person that is involved in an International company or is looking to establish themselves in a particular industry that would require a desired level of English. Or maybe it could just be a hobby and opportunity to learn and master another language.
I am happy to take on anyone that is serious about improving their English in whichever areas desired. Moreover with my creative writing & English literature background, dare I say I'd be happy to hear from writers in need of any additional help / inspiration.
So if all the above resonates with you, please do feel free to get in touch and we can discuss the best way to proceed
Alternatively if you have any questions feel free to get in touch.
I look forward to hearing from you soon.
Many thanks
