My biggest Asset (apart from knowing maths) PATIENCE, I am keen to build up the students confidence in themselves and their ability
I have a lot of experience with students that find Math's more difficult especially those with Dyslexia, adhd dyscalculia etc.
I will use different methods, both conversational, real life examples or concrete materials to support the students understanding.
I have 7 years practice of working with students who find Math's very difficult and have issues with recall.
Whether you are sitting for the 1st time or Resitting your GCSEs I am here to help you build your confidence and achieve your desired grade 4 and above.
Online is just as good as in person and allows more students to recieve support.

I am a fully qualified primary school teacher with over 10 years of experience. I have a huge passion for teaching and find it most rewarding to see children progress and excel under my guidance.
I offer tuition in the following areas:
- English
- Maths
- Creative Writing
- Year 6 SATs
- 11+ Entry Exams (Verbal and Non-Verbal Reasoning)
- Interview Preparation
Every child deserves an opportunity to reach their maximum potential. In addition to focusing on a child`s academic progress, I always look for opportunities to boost their confidence and self-esteem - as these are crucial for a holistic development. Difficult concepts are broken down in smaller ones through scaffolding using different techniques differentiated according to each child`s individual need. It is important to push each child past their comfort zone, and I do exactly that with the students I tutor by challenging them in different ways. I tutor children across the primary phase, all the way from teaching how to read and write in English, to solving complex problems in Maths, to preparing them for their upcoming SATs or 11+ exams.
I tailor my lessons to cater for each child's individual needs. I have a gentle and friendly approach towards children and I always look for ways to help them make connections between the things they learn and for them to develop a love for learning. I believe that every child is truly special and unique. I have successfully tutored children with specific learning needs, as well as children that have English as an additional language. All my students have made excelled progress in their studies, therefore most of my students come from personal recommendations of happy parents :)

I have a great deal of experience as a tutor. I have been working at one of the UK's leading Grammar Schools for the past four years. I tutor maths GCSE and A level online. I have also conducted numerous online webinars/ webclasses and drop-in sessions for students across the country for A Level maths. I love to make maths engaging. My instagram and YouTube accounts (Mark-a-minute maths) has had a wide following from students and I consistently post short 1 minute videos for students to get snappy, bitesize reviews of topics and model answers to exam questions.

I make sure my students understand the base of the subject well so that they can move forward into learning the advanced content confidently and that the students feel motivated, not let down by mistakes and enjoy learning. Having taught to students of different ages and learning abilities, I have great experience in adapting my teaching style to benefit the student's learning. I have particular techniques that have worked excellently for all my students. They have improved their skills, grade, and also their confidence in the subject! For examinations I am able to assist with, GCSE and I will follow the exam board specification that the student is taking. I can both offer you in person and online tution as per your demand. Feel free to message me and we can plan it ahead.

So you want some additional tuition for your primary-aged child – great!
But what things are important to you in choosing the right tutor for your child?
You could hire a local University student cheaply…surely, they will know and be able to teach your child what they need, right? After all, they passed their A Levels recently, so they are ‘in touch’ with school life and what children need….aren’t they?
Or do you consider any of the following as the minimum?
Teaching Qualifications?
Actual recent or current experience as a teacher?
Knowledge of the National Curriculum?
Enhanced DBS check?
Well, a qualified teacher is a step in the right direction for sure. The curriculum knowledge a qualified teacher can bring can be priceless in supporting your child towards their academic goals.
What is the Top Tutor 4 U difference then?
1. I have 25 years’ experience in the teaching profession as Teacher, Deputy Head, Headteacher and returning to current classroom teaching experience, as children’s development and education is my true passion.
2. I have been an established and well-regarded private tutor for 8 years, amassing many successful outcomes for primary pupils in SATs and GL/CEM 11+/Selection tests. My knowledge and experience of what works in regard to these assessments can guide you as a parent while nurturing your child’s skills in the strategies and techniques to give of their best in the test.
3. I have an NHS accredited counselling skills qualification and a keen interest in the coaching and motivational approach to learning. I know that any learning challenge is as much about mindset, anxiety management and test technique as it is about ‘ability’. Within my tuition, children are slowly and steadily encouraged to take more control of their own learning and mindset as they are supported to develop the skills to do so. This means that your investment in their learning will support them in the broadest sense by developing their work ethic and ability to drive through challenges throughout their school and working life.
4. I have personal and professional experience in working with children with a range of neurodiversities, including ASD/Autism, ADHD, Anxiety issues and Dyslexia. Although I cannot profess to have a specific qualification in any of these specific areas, my 25 years teaching experience has afforded me plenty of strategies to use to support the different needs of different students.
5. My skills and experience are Top Tutor 4 U’s greatest asset and I know that the development of a trusting, supportive rapport is all important in nurturing a learner’s confidence and willingness to take learning risks and make valuable mistakes. A one-size-fits-all computer programme like some faceless (sometimes not even teaching qualified) franchise owners use in the name of ‘tuition’ can never match the targeted and dynamic professional support I can provide.
Should I choose individual tuition or group tuition for my child?
There are benefits to both types of tuition, so it really depends on your child and how you feel they would work best. Top Tutor 4 U offers both types of tuition, to suit every need and preference.
Small group tuition (3-6 students) offers these benefits:
*A group dynamic means children share knowledge and ideas can learn from others’ mistakes and successes.
*A group approach can increase the confidence of more introverted students while supporting the naturally confident student in their preferred social context.
*Needing to articulate ideas so others can understand supports and consolidates learners’ own understanding over again. We say, “When you explain, you expand your brain!”
*Using a ‘hive mind’ and speaking and listening skills improves creativity when exploring a new challenge. This can feel less pressured than having to find the entire solution individually.
*Having the opportunity to use and develop interpersonal skills to work both independently and within a team is a skill which is highly valued by employers.
*A cost saving when compared to one-to-one individualized tuition.
Individual, one-to-one tuition offers these benefits:
*A personalized and tailored approach meaning learning is adjusted to meet the individual needs of the student
*Completely dedicated time to fill gaps from school that may positively impact immediately back at school or stretch and extend learning to give a child a ‘head start’ and therefore boost their confidence in the subject matter.
*Dedicated time to explore a question/question type in depth with support, before being asked to try independently.
*The rate of new learning is matched to the student’s particular needs, ensuring that they are pushing beyond their comfort zone, yet not into the stress zone.
*Bespoke resources can be used on an individual basis.
What happens when I contact you?
a) We schedule a 10-minute needs assessment meeting or phone call, where we can discuss your child’s needs, your aims for tuition for them and plan the best approach.
b) I evaluate availability of session times and/or group tuition focuses to suit your child’s need and we agree a way forward. I also send you information and helpful paperwork about Top Tutor 4 U.
c) Your child attends a ‘Pay as you go’ initial session at an agreed date and time to establish that Top Tutor 4 U tuition is the right match for your child.
d) If you and your child are content to work with me, a bank transfer is made in advance for the half term to secure your child’s space in a group or individual session, (just as you do for many other extra-curricular activities).
The choice is yours!
You could choose any number of ways or a franchise (which may not even be run by a qualified teacher) to provide private tuition for your child.
However, if you are interested in finding out how my experience and expertise can best meet your child’s needs, do drop me a message to arrange your 10-minute needs assessment call. It will be my pleasure to formulate a plan with you to enhance your child’s future.
I can’t wait to help your child on their learning journey!
