Maths & English tutor specialising in KS2. Can also tutor for Secondary School entrance exams or to extend/challenge more able. Flexible to suit the student's needs. I was a teachfor over 26 years in Primary Schools so fully up to date with the curriculum and standards. I have worked in all the Primary years but my expertise is in KS2. I have worked in challenging schools and taught many children with SEND. I have worked successfully for many years in Y5 & 6 to ensure they are ready for their SATs, so have an in depth knowledge of UKS2 curriculum and requirements. Over the last year, I have taught many overseas students online for both Maths and English, helping them improve their spoken and written English and preparing them for 11+ entrance exams. More recently, I have tutored Home Schooled pupils that have been withdrawn from Mainstream education due to lack of confidence.
I have been in the field of education for some years. I was trained for teaching at the Primary Education level, specialising in Teaching English as a Foreign Language at the University of Salamanca (Salamanca, Spain). Apart from spending 4 months in two Spanish schools developing my internship.
My focus lies on ensuring that children balance learning with fun in the classroom and building confidence in their own ability, maintaining a positive atmosphere, using creativity and following a communicative and meaningful approach.
As a teacher, I encourage and develop creativity in all children, ensuring each activity allows them to develop their confidence to be independent and active learners, utilising their knowledge and skills in order to achieve their best and learn about the world around them. My aim is to make my teaching as fun and interactive as possible, enabling their school experience to be meaningful, enjoyable and motivating. I celebrate both the successes of the children and the mistakes that form a vital part of a child’s learning as they explore their own talents and abilities. I have been developing a creative, engaging and enabling learning environment, both indoors and outdoors.

I have 17 years of Secondary School experience of teaching mathematics in all years, from year 7 to 13.
I have a range of experience teaching in secondary schools, with a focus on Maths and Business studies. I also have wide ranging experience teaching young people with special educational needs, including SEMH, ASD, dyslexia and other additional needs. I am a qualified SENDCo and can offer support with a range of addituonal needs.
I offer tutoring in GCSE maths or A level Psychology. I am an established teacher, tutor and examiner with than 30 years experience.
I have been a Primary School teacher for 10 years, inlcuding teaching in London and am a specialist in MFL and PE. I am extremely passionate about developing children’s confidence in learning and to allow children to become independent learners.
I have continued my professional development with dedication and motivation to the holistic development of young people. As a teaching assistant, higher level teaching assistant, and trainee teacher, I have worked with a range of pupils within a variety of settings from EYFS through to KS4, including pupils who are Academically More Able, Special Educational Needs/Additional Learning Needs, and Pupil Premium. This has given me a broad insight as to the range of provision implemented, early help provided to families, and the process undertaken to obtain an EHCP, along with collaborating with outside agencies.
My school experience, coupled with teaching placements, has enabled me to reflect on my philosophy and pedagogy. This has enabled me to recognise the importance of valuing each child as they are all unique and they matter. I am committed to ensuring the learning I generate is interesting, creative, and exciting. I enjoy seeing children engaging in a variety of activities whether that be in the classroom or the vicinity of the school grounds. This tells me that they are learning and are expanding their cognition through discovery and investigation.
I am always looking to engage with opportunities to progress my pedagogy further into my profession. In view of this, I hope to find a school where access to good quality educational experiences beyond the classroom is of great importance. I genuinely believe that core subject attainment can be considerably enhanced, especially in areas of Pupil Premium, when learning is applied to practical activities. An example of this would be teaching Science-circulatory system and living things- Maths -which maths mastery was implemented- English -through precision teaching and the carrying out of shared writes and History when pedagogy cross-curricular lessons of the Greek gods and the Olympics-both ancient and modern-day, using a range of resources to explain the different parts, such as artifacts of Greece, heart, and lungs, respectively. Another example would be, creating a medium-term plan “Earth's Unleashed” topic which entailed Geography, History, and Science cross-curricular lessons to investigate how and why human disasters happen. From the onset, immersing these topics help to bring them to life for the children but it also teaches the classes respect and provides an excellent opportunity to develop a new and very effective behaviour management strategy, ‘teamwork’. When planning and delivering the “Earth’s Unleased” topic, I introduced visual photos and related the lesson focus on Art when painting, using an array of coloured pencils and a variety of resources, such as sponges and cotton wool. At this point in my training, I gained further experience in planning and delivering lessons that are imaginative and creative, aiming to encourage engagement from all learners.
I understand the importance of assessment and use both a range of assessment strategies from observations in schools, as well as formulating my own. In every lesson that I teach, I use a range of formative assessment strategies, including thumbs-up, peer marking, and questioning, supported with verbal and written feedback. During my most recent placement, my mentor regularly highlighted that verbal feedback is one of my biggest strengths, along with Maths. I am fascinated by how children learn and what they are learning. I find dialogue to be a highly effective method of assessment, as when discussing in pairs or groups I can identify any misconceptions and address them, acknowledge their interpretation, and help secure their cognition for life-long learning.
I find it immensely informative to track pupils' progress after every lesson. This enables me to identify the most appropriate pedagogy to enable their cognition to develop further. Throughout my career in education to date, I have acknowledged that teaching needs to be adapted either every day or during the actual lesson, for children to acknowledge and understand the concepts. However, I use both formative and summative assessment to directly inform my planning, as time is valuable.
My ethos as a teacher has developed further during my teacher training. I place significant value on communication and the development of listening skills, as it is my ambition to expand my knowledge and the implementation of Philosophy 4 Children within the classroom. I will provide opportunities for groups wherever possible, as this is a proven method of increasing attainment. I will ensure the children in my care achieve their full potential, supporting them dynamically, and adapting my teaching to suit their learning. Throughout my teaching experience I have spent many hours working with Pupil Premium and SEN children, this also enables relationships to build and to get to know each other’s interests.
I'm Chiara, I'm 23 years old and I aspire to become a Primary school teacher in England. I'm currently studying for my PGCE in Primary education at the University of the West of England.
I have a degree in English and French and am proficient in both languages. I have a IELTS certification that proves my excellent level of English.
I'm a big reader, one of my favorite ways to bond with children is reading to them and entertain conversations about books and their fictional worlds.
I consider myself resourceful and organised, kind and engaging. I love to have my days scheduled so that I can make the most of them.
I have been volunteering as a Scout leader for four years now, working with children aged 8 to 11. During this time I, along with the rest of my staff, set educational goals to focus on throughout the year, planned activities and attended training courses to improve our skills. Education is at the heart of the Scout movement. The time and energy that it took, and the skills I developed have prepared me to undertake this job. I now know how to engage students, identify their strongest abilities and those that need more work, design a program and pursue it and make learning fun. Thanks to my degree in English and French I have a complete understanding of both languages, cultures and literatures. My experiences as a nanny and tutor to primary school aged children have also inspired me to choose this career path.
In conclusion, my experiences working with children have inspired me and given me the skills needed to be a well-organized, nurturing teacher.
i am experienced and up to date in teaching methods and changes to the GCSE curriculum . I am able to tutor across a range of subjects and excel in noticing how individuals learn , what stops or blocks them and enabling them to optimise their learning.
This is really important in a tutor student relationship as each of us need to feel sure that our tutor can
See what we know
See what we don’t know
See what we struggle with
See what we find easy.
I am very certain of the value I have in supporting others in education as I have watched thousands of students develop in self awareness confidence and most importantly knowledge over the years .

A few testimonials from past and current clients (more are available to view on my website Serenity Education and Tutoring)
"I just want to send my thanks for offering us online tutoring via Skype. Following a few weeks of face to face lessons, a change in circumstances meant my daughter wouldn’t be able to attend for 3 weeks. Rather than have to cancel you offered us online lessons which I was happy to accept, but to be honest a little sceptical. I shouldn’t have been. The lessons are structured really well and work perfectly using webcams and online learning tools. You’ve done a really great job of keeping the lessons interesting but also really focused. We’re happy to continue with our online lessons and have now booked more for the Easter holidays. We highly recommend them and Nicola to anyone." Year 6, March 2020
"Nicola has been tutoring my daughter for about 6 months. She makes her lessons fun and during lockdown her online zoom lessons have been invaluable. My daughter was lacking confidence in maths and literacy and Nicola is really helping her to build confidence, especially in maths which she has made good progress in. I would highly recommend Nicola and her friendly and fun approach to learning." Year 3, July 2020
"Nicola has provided excellent maths tuition to our daughter who is in year 8 and we would highly recommend her to anyone who is thinking about having tuition for their child . She has provided wonderful support and we have seen our daughter’s progress with her maths improve dramatically since starting tuition with Nicola; she has really made a big difference and our daughter’s confidence with her maths is far greater than before. We moved from face to face tuition to online tuition as a result of the COVID-19 situation and this transition has proven extremely successful. Our daughter has continued to thrive with her maths with the online tuition and she really enjoys using the online tools and interaction during her sessions, we have been very impressed with this method. We would highly recommend Nicola’s tuition service and would like to say how grateful we are for her continuing support, professionalism and calm approach; she continues to be a welcome source of relief for our daughter, who before her tuition was finding maths a struggle but now has the understanding and interest to develop and learn and enjoy this subject." Year 8, July 2020
"Nicola has provided very thoughtful, thorough Maths tuition for our son in year 6. She has really been creative in the sessions, thinking of personally tailored ways to engage his interest. She has a kind manner and has helped to build his confidence as well as his ability. For a child who thought he couldn't stand Maths, I've been amazed by how much he has enjoyed his lessons. The online lessons have worked brilliantly too." Year 6, July 2020
