My Approach

Specialist teaching is one-to-one and multi-sensory ensuring the learner use as many senses as possible to make learning more memorable. It is particulalry effective for learners with dyslexia. It takes a child-centred and flexible approach to teaching ensuring lessons are fun and positive to create a happy learning environment. This supports with building learners' confidence and developing self-esteem as well as encouraging independent learning. Lessons are highly structured and cumulative. 

Multisensory teaching, sometimes referred to as 'whole brain' teaching. It is an educational approach that engages more than one sensory system. It integrates as many visual, auditory, tactile and kinesthetic sense as possible to help learners discover their learning style and strategies that work for them. It can be used in all areas subject areas and benefits all learners including those without special education needs.

A few of my learners' favourite activities include: tic-tac-toe spellings, times tables space races, fly swatting spelling and four in a row reading.

Building confidence and self esteem. Phonics, reading, spelling, writing, numeracy and handwriting.

I support primary school aged children who may have a dyslexia or special educational needs diagnosis or find learning tricky. I'm able to support learners 1:1 in the local area, or online from anywhere.

• Lessons are quick and easy to set up and can be scheduled to fit in your day.
• Allows for learning to continue when in-person tuition is tricky.
• Some learners find concentration difficult, a screen can help with focus.
• Using technology can be exciting for some learners and using it in a different way.
• It can be more economical financially and with time.

I deliver my training using Google Meet or Teams. Teaching is delivered through screen sharing and is made interactive through the use of an online and physical whiteboards,  and various online programmes. I always ask my learners to have a whiteboard and pens to hand.

• Reliable internet access.
• Whiteboard, dice and pens.
