I’m a committed and experienced Teaching Assistant currently working across both mainstream and SEND (Special Educational Needs and Disabilities) schools in Derby. With a strong background in supporting children with a wide range of learning needs, I offer personalised online tutoring for primary-aged students (up to 12 years old) in English, maths, reading, and phonics.
My approach is patient, encouraging, and adaptable to suit each child’s individual pace and style of learning. I aim to create a positive and supportive learning environment that builds confidence and helps children thrive both academically and personally. Whether your child needs help catching up, preparing for SATs, or simply boosting their skills and self-esteem, I tailor each session to meet their unique needs.
With my hands-on experience in the classroom, I understand the curriculum and how to engage children in ways that make learning enjoyable and effective. I’m passionate about helping young learners reach their full potential and making sure they feel proud of every step forward.

I have tutored 30+ students with SEN needs such as ADHD, ASD and Dyslexia. I also have experience in working with students that have anxiety. I already have some existing training in SEN needs as I have worked a volunteer tutor supporting students in their core subjects. I have helped SEN students achieve A grades across a range of subjects including maths and English at KS3 and GCSE level.
I can deliver interactive and accessible lessons that encourage students to gain confidence across all areas of their learning, beyond the core subjects such as Maths and English.
I will ensure that the students wellbeing is at the centre of my teaching and their learning experience.

I have experience teaching both online and face to face for GCSE and A level Biology. I like to tailor lessons to the student and their learning needs- I can suggest topics but I am equally happy to be guided by them if there is something they want to cover. I like to involve the student in the learning process. I will start off by asking students to tell me what they know before building on it, this way i can focus more on what the student doesn't already know or understand. I take a patient and understanding approach with students to help them feel relaxed in sessions.
What lessons are like is variable. For topics that may be new for the student, I would spend most of the lesson teaching them the subject matter. For topics that they may know a bit, I can test their understanding or can help with practice questions. If it's closer to exam time, then either going over past papers in the lesson, or if they attempt one in their own time then I can go over anything they didn't understand, or help them revise any subject that they want to at the time. Overall I think this tailored approach helps students feel like their lessons are useful and hopefully they can enjoy them too!

I am an enthusiastic fully qualified teacher and enhanced DBS with a genuine passion for my subject and I aim to provide a stimulating learning environment by adopting a variety of teaching approaches. I aspire to motivate my students to achieve the best possible outcomes, regardless of ability, background or SEN status and particularly have experience of stretching and challenging the more able pupils.
I have taught at Queen Elizabeth School, Barnet, ranked as the top state school in the country, for the last 4 years including guiding many Oxbridge physics, natural sciences, medicine and engineering candidates. I have a degree in Automotive Engineering and a PhD in Racecar Aerodynamics both from Loughborough University, where I also taught undergraduate modules in Statics & Dynamics, Fluid Dynamics, Low Speed Aerodynamic, Ground Vehicle Aerodynamics and CAD. Prior to completing my PGCE I was a research engineer developing hydrogen fuel cell technology for a range of clean technology applications.
I have recently moved from London to Nottingham with my family and am available for tutoring of Science (KS3) and Physics (GCSE and A Level) online or in person.

I am a fairly new tutor, but I have a passion for math and logical thinking. I believe every student has the potential to do great things if they are taught correctly. I intend to break things down and explain them simply to all-aged students.

I hold a PhD from Imperial College London. have a strong academic track record and have led cutting-edge research teams in projects for multinational pharmaceutical and biotech companies including Unilever, GlaxoSmithKline, Zeneca, Novartis and others. I have published scientific research which has been cited over 2200 times in the peer-reviewed literature and I serve on the Editorial Boards of four reputable international scientific journals. I am fascinated by science and maths and I believe my genuine enthusiasm for the fields, combined with my working knowledge, based on years as an active researcher, is evident in my teaching.
I enjoy working with students of varying ages and abilities and take pride in encouraging students to reach their full potential. I am patient and understanding in my approach, which I will adapt to meet the strengths and needs of individual learners.
I have years of experience as a tenured university lecturer where I taught at both undergraduate and postgraduate level. I have supervised 8 PhD students to successful completion of their thesis. Having interviewed numerous UCAS candidates for degree places, I can also offer advice to hone your personal statement.
Tutoring Experience
Previous A'level results are: 100% A*-C, 85% A*-A, 8% B, 7% C. 100% of students got into their first choice universities and 31% achieved placed in medical school. These grades are representative of the results achieved in previous years. 2023 GCSE results were 100% grades 9-7 from students taking higher level papers and 100% grade 5 from students sitting the foundation level papers (the highest grade they could attain).
I have been a full-time tutor for the past eleven years and I am a past Vice-President of The Tutors' Association, the professional body for the tuition industry. I was elected into this position by members of the tutoring profession. I tutor as a full-time profession.
I am very familiar with all the major examination boards (AQA, OCR, EdExcel, IB, CIE), I have recent school-based teaching experience at secondary level and I am a current and very experienced biology examiner and question setter, which enables me to explain things from "the examiner's perspective"!
I have worked with children with special educational needs such as Asperger Syndrome, autism, ADHD, partial hearing and dyslexia. Having lived and worked abroad for a number of years, I also have experience of working with students for whom English is an additional language.
Tutoring Approach
I offer tuition either online or face-to-face at my home, where I have an area which is free from distractions and all my materials and resources are immediately available to make tuition as effective as possible.
I believe in taking a very individual approach to tutoring, adapting approaches and resources to fit the needs of the individual. Prior to commencing tuition we will agree tuition goals and I will work with these to develop a personalized scheme of learning. During tuition I will monitor student progress and keep records of this so that learning and attainment can be tracked and approaches can be continually adapted to meet the developing needs of the learner.
However, most importantly of all, I believe learning should be fun. I am friendly and approachable and I work hard to ensure students enjoy having tuition, which ultimately will maximize the progress they make.

My background as a manager and team leader in childcare environments has equipped me with the skills to effectively support children’s learning and growth. I have a deep understanding of early childhood theories, particularly attachment theory and child protection, which I explored in my education. My hands-on experience includes working with children with special educational needs, allowing me to tailor my approach to meet individual needs.
In addition to my practical experience, I have a strong foundation in communication, having engaged with children, families, and multi-agency teams. This makes me well-suited to tutor child development concepts, guiding learners through important topics and fostering a deeper understanding of the child’s journey from infancy to early years. My passion for supporting children's development is further demonstrated by my commitment to teaching sign language to children, helping them to express themselves and connect with others.

I want to teach because I’m passionate about helping others grow and reach their potential. There's something incredibly rewarding about guiding students through challenges, sparking their curiosity, and watching their confidence build over time. Teaching allows me to make a lasting impact, not just academically, but personally—encouraging critical thinking, resilience, and a love for learning that can carry them far beyond the classroom. In addition, having achieved a 9 in mathematics I believe that my strategies do indeed work and have proven their success.
What a typical lesson entails:
Start- Synoptic Retrieval- Revision going over everything covered in previous lessons and also at school to ensure that the student is up to date with content
Middle- Teaching and learning- Learning content typically one point on the specification that the student struggles with
End- Practice Questions to ensure that student completely understands the topic and is prepared for the exam.
