About Me

I am a qualified teacher with a Bachelor of Education, an Honours degree in Educational Support and a Level 3 TEFL certificate. My teaching experience spans classroom teaching, private tutoring, curriculum development, and educational support across a range of ages and learning environments.

Teaching all subjects within the primary curriculum has strengthened my ability to design lessons that are engaging, flexible, and responsive to diverse learning needs. I have worked in socially and economically diverse classrooms, developed disciplinary procedures, and adapted teaching during online learning. Alongside classroom teaching, I have privately tutored children requiring concentrated academic and emotional support, particularly learners with dyslexia, ADD, and confidence-related challenges.

My teaching methodology is grounded in a child-centred and holistic philosophy. I believe learning should nurture the whole child — intellectually, emotionally, socially, and creatively. I place strong emphasis on observation and relationship-building, recognising that every child learns differently and deserves to feel seen, understood, and capable. I adapt curriculum content and teaching strategies to meet learners where they are, incorporating remedial support, differentiated instruction, creativity, movement, and meaningful experiences to deepen learning and engagement.

What I love most about teaching is the opportunity to build genuine connections and witness growth. I find deep fulfilment in helping children discover their confidence, overcome challenges, and develop curiosity about the world around them. Teaching, for me, is about creating safe, inspiring spaces where learners can develop their abilities and sense of self. I am passionate about strengthening the relationship between students, teachers, and learning, and I am committed to contributing positively and creatively to education.
