Skills & Experience​

      I am a qualified teacher with over 15 years experience. This including working in a specialist behaviour unit for secondary students who had been excluded from mainstream schools. The students were studying Functional Skills and I taught these lessons, and this gave me invaluable experience with behavioural needs. During this time, I was responsible for the final exams and some online teaching during the covid pandemic. I have also worked in a primary special provision for children with SEN and behavioural needs. These were small classes of children and it required patience and resilience and I had to draw on my many years of experience with children with medical needs, ADHD, ADD, Autism and other special needs. I enjoyed working here and it developed my skills and led me to realise that I wanted to tutor students and give them the support and attention they need.

 

·        My specialist experience working with students with SEN to develop trusting and meaningful relationships; 

I have taught children with complex and medical needs such as Cerebral Palsy, Moderate Learning Difficulties, Profound and Multiple and Learning Disabilities, ADHD, ADD and behaviour needs in a variety of settings, including specialist provisions, where I taught small classes with bespoke learning plans and created 1:1 sessions for both face to face and online learning. I pride myself in developing good relationships with my students and take my time to get to know the student well and tailor my approach to suit the individual. I use humour and a nurturing approach to allow them to get to know and trust me and to create a safe and successful learning environment.

 

·        My experience teaching young people with ASC/autism;

During my career I have taught many children on the autistic spectrum, both in mainstream schools and specialist provisions, where I attended many training courses. I have created bespoke learning plans for each student based on their individual needs and have a good understanding of the need for an individual approach to maximise success.

 

·        My experience teaching young people with SEMH;

I have taught many children with SEMH, both in mainstream settings and specialist provisions. I believe I have a calm, nurturing and positive approach and really value building a relationship with the student to allow for a successful learning environment in which the students trust me. I have had training in mental health support and mental health first aid.

 

·        My experience teaching young people with challenging behaviour;

I have a lot of experience with children with challenging behaviour, having taught at a specialist provision. The school had small classes that allowed the children to have the support required and had a nurturing approach to learning. I am trained in TeamTeach and de-escalation. I have a calm and measured approach and take time to understand the individual student’s needs.

 

·        My experience teaching functional English and Maths;

With over 16 years of experience teaching in primary schools and up to GCSE and Functional Skills, I have developed numerous methods for teaching English and Maths to young people with different learning styles and needs. This includes creating bespoke programmes of work for SEN children needing extra support. I aim to make the sessions creative, fun, and engaging and always tailor the sessions to individual needs of the child.

 

 

·        My specialist experience supporting young people with social skills/language skills;

I have attended a number of training courses that are designed to support teachers when working with young people with speech and language needs and have worked 1:1 with children alongside speech and language specialists to create bespoke curriculums to support them in the classroom. This has allowed me to us this knowledge in my 1:1 sessions. 

 

 My specialist experience boosting confidence and self-esteem: During my teaching career I have noticed a marked increase in students lacking self-esteem and I particularly enjoy helping to boost this and make the student aware of their unique strengths and skills. This comes from building strong relationships and identifying what approach is best for that individual. 1:1 tutoring is ideal for this approach as it allows that relationship to develop. I love watching students’ self-esteem grow and they see themselves making progress.

  • · My skills and experience supporting students to develop their independence.

Building independence is crucial in creating a life-long learning with a thirst for knowledge. I believe that a creative learning approach will build both confidence and independence. This is best achieved with a secure relationship between student and tutor and sessions that are tailored to the student’s learning style.
