/ Katy C.
Hello, My name is Katy and I'm a qualified Primary School teacher with a current DBS. I've experience teaching Years 3-6 and teaching children with a range of special educational needs and disabilities. Lockdown has been difficult for all of our children and I'd like to support your child and fill any gaps they may have. I would help your child become a confident and independent learner. I've lead online sessions throughout the first lockdown. These included whole class lessons and small group targeted Phonics and Maths interventions.
Math, English and phonics lessons in Leeds, UK.
I have been teaching for 10 years in Harrogate. My passion lies in the fun, play based learning, which engages children and accelerates learning. Our learning will take place outside as much as possible. Before sessions commence, I will have a detailed discussion with the child's parents, to gather as much information as possible, and so that I can tailor our learning to a theme which suits a child's interest.
I have been teaching for 14 years. My experience has been across primary aged children but mainly in Reception, year 1 and year 2. I have a 6-year-old boy of my own and we never stop learning together through play and more recently through formal learning! My experience allows me to adjust my teaching style to suit all types of learners. I LOVE what I do and as a learner myself I am always striving for the best, evaluating the way that I work and developing my practice. I love meeting new people and watching children grow and learn. My home is suitable and inviting for anyone and I offer a wide range of activities that support learning about a range of concepts in all subjects. This includes foundation subjects as well as core subjects. I would be very excited to have the opportunity to teach you.
I have been EAL teaching assistant for twenty-eight years for Key stage one. I can teach all the phonics levels. Basic to five.
I am a French and English tutor based in the UK offering language and literature tutorials for learners of all levels.*
Since studying French with English Literature at The University of Surrey, I have been helping my students learn both French and English via Zoom. I am proud to say that they have been scoring highly in both written and oral tests.
After working for language schools in Rennes such as Institut-Mondia-Langues and Les Petits Bilingues, I have begun teaching group classes of both primary and secondary-aged students in addition to one-to-one tutorials. Please note that the maximum number of students per class is 8 only, ensuring that the children benefit from teacher-student interactions.
Throughout the pandemic, I have helped my students to grow in confidence as their levels of French and English improve, engaging with both languages and developing comprehensive written and communication skills.
What I offer:
• First class free of charge to discuss students' learning needs
• Group classes (up to 8 people) and one-to-one sessions
• French and/or English language lessons for primary and secondary school students
• Reading confidence workshops for students in need of additional support
• Spelling, phonics & grammar tutorials
• Confidence-boosting speaking sessions to encourage students to enjoy language learning
• Help with any French/English school homework that is proving indecipherable
• Literature tutorials for students studying British, American and/or French literature
• I also provide proofreading and translating services (French-English)
My tutorials are well prepared, structured, and adapted to your child/ren’s learning style/s. The first Zoom call is an opportunity to discuss their learning objectives; these might be goals such as developing their spoken language skills in French/English, or something more specific such as providing additional support for students with dyslexia.
Whatever your child’s learning needs may be, they will be given a structured learning plan targeting the aspects that they would like to work on (speaking, listening, writing, vocabulary, grammar etc).
In my classes, students benefit from language acquisition as well as learning, which is essentially the process of identifying sounds > associating those sounds with meaning > imitating the sounds to convey meaning.
This process takes practice, so I focus on overcoming obstacles that might inhibit fluency in speech or coherency in writing. For example, many of my students struggle with spoken expression at first due to a lack of confidence. To help with this, I create an interactive learning space where students feel comfortable making mistakes, empowering them to make progress.
Homework and in-class activities are used to target the areas where your child/ren may face difficulties, which we then work through together in class.
