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.

I have earned my Diploma in Primary Education at the St. Joseph’s Teachers’ College and I have currently completed a Bachelor’s Degree in Primary Education at The Mico University College which has trained me to be an efficient and effective teacher. While studying at The Mico University College I Advanced in English Language, as well as completing an action research paper on “How can a Phonemic Awareness Intervention Program Help Students who are Reading Below Their Grade Level?”
I have also completed a course in special education which has equipped me with a reserve of knowledge that is pivotal to improve the holistic development of each learner. I am readily aware of the procedures and guidelines that govern students with learning difficulties and how to tailor these policies to create a conducive learning environment. Also, I possess the required skills to work collaboratively with all stakeholders to assess each learner and create the relevant Individualized Educational Plan (IEP).
I enjoy creating multi-sensory lessons with differentiated instructions and activities that cater to auditory, visual, tactile, and kinesthetic learners. As an advocate of student-centered learning and technology integration, I am optimistic that learners will discover their real fortes and capabilities as they become engaged in their learning to discover and create new knowledge. This approach will motivate students to become accountable, independent learners, critical thinkers, and collaborators.
Education is the foundation for young people to achieve success in all undertakings. Therefore, my greatest goal is to educate students and help them blossom into well-rounded and successful citizens for nation-building.

This experience honed my leadership, organisation, and communication skills. Over time, I discovered a strong passion for youth development, education, and wellbeing, which led me to transition into education. I am now a dedicated tutor and mentor, working with children of all backgrounds including those with behavioural needs and Special Educational Needs (SEN). I hold relevant qualifications in mentoring, safeguarding, and teaching, and I strive to make a positive, lasting impact in young people's lives.

With over 15 years of dedicated experience as a Primary school teacher in Key Stage 1, I am passionate about creating a positive and nurturing learning environment that enables young learners to reach their full potential. My deep understanding of the KS1 curriculum, coupled with my commitment to individualized learning, allows me to support students in building strong foundational skills in reading, writing, and mathematics, as well as fostering curiosity in science and the arts.
Throughout my career, I have developed a teaching approach that is both creative and adaptable, ensuring that I meet the unique needs of each student. I take pride in my ability to tailor lessons that are engaging, interactive, and aligned with the child’s learning style, whether they thrive with visual aids, hands-on activities, or verbal discussions. My goal is not just to teach core skills but to instill a love of learning and confidence in my students that will last far beyond their early school years.
I am deeply committed to making learning a rewarding experience for every child I tutor. With patience, empathy, and an unwavering dedication to student success, I take pride in watching my students grow into confident, independent learners who are excited about their learning. I look forward to continuing to contribute to the academic and personal growth of KS1 students, helping them lay a solid foundation for lifelong learning.

My teaching career started in Moscow, where I worked for 8 years with adults and kids of all levels. My experience in Russia gave me the opportunity to study a foreign language, so I have a deep understanding of the frustrations and difficulties of language acquisition. I still attend online Russian classes, so I know exactly how it feels to be an online language learner. In 2011, I returned to the UK and started working freelance as an online English tutor. I found students by making videos on YouTube, and anyone who is interested in my teaching methodology should watch some of my lessons. I now have more than 500 English lessons on my YouTube channel.
For the last 4 years, I have been teaching English grammar to hundreds of UK English teachers as part of a Skills and Knowledge Enhancement course (SKE), funded by the Department for Education. In these classes, I give my colleagues tips on how to identify parts of speech, how to punctuate phrases and clauses, and how to recognize rhetorical devices. I have enjoyed this opportunity immensely, as it has provided me with a better insight into the nuances of English grammar.
I have also written two books over the last few years. One of these books is aimed at TEFL students, and deals with vocabulary (Visual Phrasal Verbs), while the other is written for natives, and deals with grammar and punctuation.
I teach English as a Foreign Language to all ages, levels, and nationalities. I am a big fan of the communicative approach, so my online classes are geared towards sharpening your speaking skills; in each lesson, I encourage students to retell an English book or film that they have recently seen, while I listen carefully and correct the mistakes. For many repeated mistakes, I simply make a gesture to let the student know about the error, and in this way, students get the chance to correct their own mistakes. During the classes, I make notes on any errors and new vocabulary, and I send a copy of this lesson feedback after the class. For homework, I set reading, writing, and grammar tasks. I also give links to YouTube videos from my channel, in which I explain the grammar or vocabulary topic in great detail so that students have access to my explanations, even when we are not physically 'in a lesson'. In addition to hundreds of online video lessons, I have a vocabulary book for learning phrasal verbs.
I also teach grammar to natives who would like to deepen their understanding of punctuation and rhetoric. I use my own course book, which focuses on how to identify different grammatical structures in typical GCSE texts (Animal Farm, Lord of the Flies, Frankenstein, 1984). This course has been extremely popular among the teachers that I work with. I am confident that I can teach the same course to anyone that wants to improve their use of English.

A well-presented, enthusiastic and inspirational teacher who is dedicated to ensuring pupils acquire, utilise and consolidate their knowledge, skills and understanding appropriate to all curriculum areas. I have an extensive knowledge of teaching and learning from nursery to year six. I have high expectations for behaviour and maintain a calm, respectful and hard-working learning environment where pupils are comfortable and learn to the best of their ability. I am passionate about all subjects but English and maths have always been two favourite subjects of mine; they form the foundation for learning in all other subjects and I believe teaching pupils maths and english forms the very basis of the present day society in which children and young adults are living today. With this ethos in mind, I have a very high subject matter knowledge in English with regard to grammar and writing structure and in maths with regards to reasoning and mental arithmetic. I have worked as a year 6 teacher in many schools. I have extensive knowledge of the new format of the SATs and am able to teach intervention groups and booster groups to raise children's knowledge of reading, the SPAG tests, and mathematic reasoning and arithmetic tests. I feel that working with smaller groups in these subject areas can be more beneficial: some children gain a considerable amount from intensive focused teaching whether their need is emotional or academic. I have had a great deal of experience working in classrooms with whole groups of children and also have worked with small groups of children outside the classroom. I have seen the positive effects that one-to-one intervention can have on children and always bring that level of academic intimacy to the classroom.
