Primary Tuition

Having worked as a class teacher in most primary year groups. I offer one to one tuition in the following subjects for children aged 5-11 yrs.

• Mathematics
• Literacy
• Phonics (following Ruth Miskin's Read, Write, Inc. Scheme)
• Science

An initial assessment of your child, identifies the areas which need to be covered. I provide a written report on the assessment along with a proposed programme of study. Sessions are tailored to cover the identified areas using a variety of approaches to make sure the concept is fully understood and enjoyable, for example using a famous four finger chocolate biscuit to understand equivalent fractions and a model of a hotel lift to understand negative numbers. In many cases I work closely with a pupil's  class teacher to target particular areas and reinforce the work covered in school.

Homework can be provided and all materials are included in my hourly rate. Please see the Prices section in the sidebar.

As an alternative to weekly term time sessions, some parents prefer just school holiday tuition - please call or email for details.

I am DBS checked and  further details can be found on my Terms of Business page.
