I am a very experienced maths teacher who specialises in teaching those GCSE students who struggle with maths and exams. I taught for 5 years in a specialist dyslexia and Asperger's school and for 7 years I taught in an FE college leading the GCSE retake team . I am currently now working in a secondary school teaching years 7-11. In addition to my teaching qualifications , I have a level 3 qualification in teaching students with dyslexia.
I like to teach by building confidence and showing that maths is not scary but can be fun. I use a variety of resources that I have built up over the years and adapt to the learning style of my pupils. I have been tutoring privately for the past 14 years as well as teaching in schools and colleges.
I have been a marker for Edexcel GCSE examinations for the last 15 years and I have also marked the KS2 SAT papers occasionally. Consequently I have an excellent insight into what is actually needed to get those extra marks and what the examiners are actually looking for.
I really enjoy working with young people and transforming them from nervous maths haters to confident maths lovers.
I have worked at various schools including special needs. In these organisations I have worked with young people including those on the autistic spectrum, those with behavioural learning problems and those suffering from mental health issues. I have always found it is key to strike up a good relationship with the young person, understand their problems and work with them to help them develop mentally and socially as well as helping them to gain the best outcome for themselves. I find this immensely rewarding.
I have led Maths departments at three of the schools that I have worked at. I have taught GCSE, IGCSE, GCSE Statistics and Functional Skills level 1 and 2 This entailed researching new Maths ideas including the Singapore method and the Complete Maths curriculum. I have presented teaching ideas to fellow practitioners at my school and others. I have been the school’s examination officer and have marked examination scripts for Pearsons. I have taken part in the school development, for example looking to build maths into the whole curriculum. I have always sought to develop as a practitioner and looked to do something that was advantageous to the school I was working with.
As a practitioner working for the benefit of the young people, it is essential to differentiate their work to give them the maximum opportunity to succeed.
I am a dedicated tutor offering GCSE Maths, English and Science, as well as GCSE and A-Level Spanish and Psychology. With over 7 years of experience, I work with a wide range of students, including those who are home-educated, helping them build confidence and achieve their academic goals.
My lessons are tailored to each student’s unique needs, helping them build confidence and achieve their academic goals. I hold a DBS check and have excellent references from parents and students.

I have extensive teaching experience both in the classroom and as a tutor. I love teaching on a 1:1 basis as I am able to tailor the lessons to the needs of the pupil and make a real difference. I teach Maths up to GCSE level.
When teaching online, I use Pencil Spaces which is a fully interactive virtual classroom. Students have their own personal board and can use this between lessons if they want to go over an area covered in the lesson. My past and present students have found this really beneficial especially when preparing for their exams. Students require a laptop and a stylus in order to record their answers. If they do not have interactive laptop, an inexpensive drawing/graphics tablet can be purchased online which plugs into their laptop.
Prior to setting up my tutoring business, I worked as a Maths Lead in both the private and public sector. I have experience with the following exam boards: AQA, Edexcel, OCR (Foundation and Higher).
I want to give you the most effective learning experience possible, so prior to the session telling me the class materials you're using will be very useful so I can do my due diligence before the session. This is so I can give you the most concise and understandable explanation of how to do the problems and understand the material.
Hi there! I am a fully qualified Secondary Mathematics teacher with 5 years experience working in a Secondary comprehensive and able to offer bespoke KS2/3 and GCSE tutoring.
I have taught in a range of contexts - from focused Y11 exam revision workshops on a 1:1 basis all the way up to delivering sequential curriculum to hundreds of students - and no matter the situation, seeing the `lightbulb` go off is what I live for.
I aim to always provide a safe and stimulating classroom environment, where students feel comfortable enough to make mistakes and learn while also pushing themselves to achieve their best.
One of my greatest strengths in a classroom is my ability to develop strong rapport with students and help them to see Maths in a new and more positive light. Going from a position of `I can`t do this` to `I can do this` is a challenge, but together we `can`!

I am a qualified teacher and I enjoy working as a SEN teacher finding it a very rewarding career even though it is challenging sometimes.
The ability to guide a generation of young people to achieve their goals is something very special and a role I cherish, even if it does call for a high level of effort and dedication. I work closely with young people who, due to physical impairments, behavioural issues or learning disabilities require additional support in some, or all, of the aspects of their schooling. I take responsibility for the education and welfare of a class of students in accordance with the requirements of the National Curriculum and school policies. In addition to the knowledge and training to provide a high standard of education, I believe that my duty is to understand how to best work one-on-one with pupils and ensure that, at all times, they feel their learning environment is a safe and a supportive one.
I believe that communication is an important skill in teaching especially in SEN education, which I have gained it by working closely with parents and guardians liaise with other professionals, such as social workers, speech and language therapists, physiotherapists and educational psychologists. Also, I feel that the patience and empathy are some of the skills needed for this position. Every student learns at all different rates and as an educator I would apply persistence and patience to support the student’s learning. Since training as a teacher and working experiences, I have gained ICT skills in regards to the ability to switch on a computer, log in and connect to the appropriate platforms and programs; using ICT hardware to scan, print and copy documents; using a digital camera to capture photographs or video footage; editing images using computer software; using a search engine such as Google to find information; using computers and the internet safely, for example, keeping personal information private, and avoiding viruses, identity theft and other online threats.
I believe that all leaners benefit from motivation, inspiration and challenge. I follow this by applying positive reinforcement www.*** by praising for every right action made or giving them another try. This is a way that students can promote a good progress and outcomes. Encouraging activities such as social stories will help in behavioural development of verbal and non -verbal children, which is very important as early detection can improve communication skills. Students are supported in a variety of different ways as appropriate to their needs which include individual support, in small groups and in class. Base on National Curriculum, I am matching the learning to the needs and abilities of the students using a range of strategies to develop the pupils’ knowledge, understanding and skills including the use of ICT. I focus on the well- structured lessons and I am adapting learning materials such as worksheets, books and activities to suit the students’ needs. As a class teacher, I continually assess each child and note areas where they are improving and where further support is needed. To manage behaviour effectively in the class, I have to make myself consistent and predictable- in lesson structure and in how I intervene and respond- this means having a lot of emotional control; avoiding the complex language, being plain and simple and use of imagery will help in keeping calm students with challenging behaviour. I encourage positive friendships- my own friendship with students as well as helping them makes positive relationships themselves. Modelling the appropriate behaviour I want to maintain in class means that it was established a good and safe learning environment for all students.
I am actively involved in the curriculum, implementing it in the classroom, blending theory with practice for the students’ best learning and understanding.
My professional integrity is based on acting with honesty in all aspects of my work and respect the privacy of others as well as being committed to equality and inclusion and to respecting and accommodating diversity including those differences arising from gender, civil status, family status, sexual orientation, religion, age, race etc. I am a caring, fair and committed to the best interests of the students entrusted to their care, and seek to motivate, inspire and celebrate effort and success seeking to develop positive relationships with students, colleagues, parents, school management, or others in the school community. I work to establish and maintain a culture of mutual trust and respect. I am committed to promoting and safeguarding the welfare of students by protecting them from abuse and maltreatment, preventing harm to their health or development and creating environment that meets the special educational needs of each student.
Flexibility and adaptability are two qualities I possess and I think they go hand in hand with one another. The more flexible a teacher’s approach, the better students are able to adapt to the room and the higher the chances are of increased student participation and engagement- ensuring that no student gets left behind.
Some of my qualities I possess are patience, enthusiasm, dedication, creativity and sense of humour. Patience is the key because it can be often tested when working with students with complex needs such as refusal, confrontation, aggression, repetition. But hand in hand with that is the incredible reward when I see progress. After weeks of activities around how to read and write the initial sound /s/ the moment that student, completely unprompted, makes a sound like a snake… it’s all worth it. It is my job as a teacher to inspire the children in my care so at 8:50 we start the show with enthusiasm no matter how exhausted we feel. One of my favourite things about teaching children with Special Needs is that you get more freedom with what you teach and how you teach it. It really is all about the individual child and finding a way to inspire them, enabling them to understand the concept. Creating multi- sensory activities are fantastic- giant story sacks, singing and dancing, cooking and eating and of course anything that involves of bit of mess.
Teaching children with Special Needs is not super easy so I will not last 2 minutes without a sense of humour. If you don’t laugh, you will cry!
All these qualities are essential to any type of teaching, but you need an extra measure of each of them to succeed in a Special Needs environment. Teaching in a SEN School is a challenging job, but it is by a long way the most rewarding.

I am a qualified SENCo with vast experience working in mainstream and independent schools across Hampshire and Portsmouth Local Authorities. I am a qualified Specialist Dyslexia Teacher with a number of qualifications in teaching pupils with dyscalculia and numeracy difficulties. Currently, I am studying for a Level 7 qualification in Dyscalculia assessing and teaching, this will consolidate the years of teaching pupils with dyscalculia and dyslexia in a specialist department. My special needs experience extends to the opening of an Autism and Mental Health provision alongside the managing of a dyslexia and dyscalculia provision. I have worked closely with the Local Authorities to support families through the Education Health and Care Plan application process with much success.
Originally, I started out as a music teacher within primary settings until my passion for supporting pupils with additional needs rose up and inspired me to take my initial SEN qualification through training in recognising and teaching Dyslexia and literacy difficulties. From this there was no looking back! I went on to work as a Special Needs Coordinator in three schools across Hampshire and Portsmouth supporting all age groups from 2-16 achieving the National SENCo qualification; later working on my passion for the lesser known Specific Learning Difficulties of Dyscalculia.
My greatest joy and education has come from the adoption of my three children where I have taken extensive training in attachment and trauma informed practice, NVR, therapeutic parenting and the use of PACE. I have first hand knowledge and experience of living and working with autistic individuals and celebrating Neurodiversity in her family life. Anne knows first hand the difficulties of navigating the school SEN systems as a parent and this experience can never be measured but leads to a greater understanding and providing advocacy for parents and pupils alike.
I am a qualified teacher. I have a range of experiences in school such as state junior and infant schools, private infant and junior schools, special educational needs schools, senior schools, forest schools and Montessori schools. I have 4 years experience in the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) as an LSA where I was also fortunate to cover classes across Key Stage 1 and sometimes Key Stage 2. I completed teaching placements in year R, 2 and 4 on my teaching placements whilst doing my degree and I am currently a year 1 teacher. I have an in depth understanding of how to support my pupils on a hollistic level to their needs and interests. My mutual respect between myself and the pupil ensures enjoyment in learning and my further relationship with parents further enables me to gain an in depth understanding of the child to meet their educational and personal needs.
