About me
|
|
I am a qualified teacher trained in Primary Education, Further & Adult Education, Adult Dyslexia Diagnosis & Support and general Special Needs. In relation to English/Literacy, I have ten years' experience teaching Basic Literacy (and ICT) in Further & Adult Education and over twenty-five years' experience in private English tutoring, often working with the same family over a number of years for several siblings. The vast majority of my students come to me from word of mouth.
Teaching is not merely my profession, but my passion! My students make excellent progress because I transmit my enthusiasm, make lessons fun and apply a multi-sensory teaching approach which includes drawing on my extensive bank of learning resources, many of which I have personally designed to accommodate all areas and individual needs.
