About Me

Results focused teacher is how I would describe myself. I am driven to making sure the children I work with are striving to pass the end of year phonics screen test in year one or improve on their phonics. My target is to help children decode words, recognise sounds and letters and to identify diagraphs/split diagraphs in each word. I believe phonics stimulates and develops the essential skills of reading, writing, thinking, speaking and listening. I am mobile anyway will cover the surrounding areas of West Yorkshire. I offer my phonics teaching either VIRTUALLY or I can COME TO YOU. It’s whatever is most suited for you :)

My Experience

Whilst working at a school, I followed the Read, Write, Inc phonics teaching method. This is an inclusive literacy program and it was clear that it contributed to raising the schools Literacy standard. The school I worked at was a three form entry school with up to 30 children in each class which meant I assessed around 90 children in Year 1 as well as Year 2. Assessing each child every term helped me group children according to their ability. I made sure that my lessons were structured with purpose, pace and passion allowing pupils to progress through the units at an accelerated rate. I would also put a timetable together for ‘ditty books’ which are short story books based on the sound the children have learnt in the week. This then helped the children effortlessly read.Not only did I teach ability groups, I also worked in small focused groups with children who needed extra support. Teachers from Key stage one would give me a list of children each term that I would then follow to work closely with them.I have also carried out two phonics screening checks with the whole of year one and also with the children who were on a retake, therefore I am experienced in how to carry the test out ensuring all measures are in place and guidelines are followed.

My Fees

  • Tutoring from £15.00 per hour

Since the resources I use are at a high standard and because of my experience I feel my fee is a great value for money considering I have only just taken upon tutoring and that I can come to you. My fees start from £15 but depending on where you are located the rate will go up. I also offer packages.
