About Me
I am Helen, a Private Independent SEN Education Specialist in Wilmslow. I provide highly-structured interventions for children in reading, handwriting and number. I have a particular interest in ASD, ADD and ADHD, although equally I teach children without SEN. I am a certified test user for the QB ADHD Test and have a fast-track system linked to Speech Therapists, Paediatric Occupational Therapist, Educational and Clinical Psychologists, to ensure we can work with your child to maximise learning potential and success as an independent learner.
Increased workloads for school teachers makes it difficult for them to reach every child and give them the truly specialised help that they need and deserve. Mixed ability classes and disruptive children can make a severe impact on a child, for example, with processing difficulties. More and more children are falling behind and when the gaps become too large, so does the problem in fixing it.
Well-known for delivering high class expert interventions to help your child, I work closely with many schools. I support the EHCP process, in addition to attending EHCP and mediation meetings with parents and schools. Training can be delivered to teaching staff based on outcomes of professional reports, so they know exactly how to work with your child.
+Intensive Intervention Programmes in reading, writing & phonological training (from aged 4 or earlier, if your child is able). This is particularly recommended if there are genetic links to dyslexia or other learning difficulties.
+Handwriting/penmanship (beginners to improvers), grammar skills, composition, comprehension/inference, story-writing.
+Complete mathematical training, which promotes smart, simple techniques, to develop a sound understanding of number, bonds, time, fractions, percentages, angles, units of measure, inverse operations, problem-solving and the language used in maths.
+Specialist multi-sensory training in the 3 R's for pupils with dyslexia, dyscalculia, dyspraxia, autism, Asperger's, working memory and processing difficulties, auditory & visual discrimination difficulties, ADD, ADHD.
Let's make children's lives great!
My Experience
More than being a general tutor, which often mans repetitive ploughing through photocopied worksheets (and can be counter-productive to learning) I offer totally personalised lessons, in which the child gains confidence to take charge of their own learning.
I am a highly qualified and experienced, dedicated SENCO with a track record of exceptional expertise in turning around failed children. I am licensed to administer Educational Tests and work within a Specialist Private Multi-Disciplinary Team. I have extensive experience in working with pupils with Autism, Speech & Language Delay, ADHD, ADD, Asperger's, Auditory Processing Disorders, Dyslexia and Dyspraxia and other general learning difficulties.
Children do not have to have SEN for me to work with them - all children can access the same excellent support.
I am Primary & Early Years trained and I am specialist in teaching acquisition of phonics - pure sound phonological training, reading, handwriting, numeracy and literacy.
I work regularly with schools, parents, occupational therapists, speech & language therapists, clinical and educational psychologists and am fully conversant and competent in working with detailed reports and recommendations from these professionals.
Children can be released from school to access intensive interventions in English & Maths.
Any other questions, however small, please just call. I am on the DBS Enhanced Check Update Service.

My Fees
- Tutoring from £70.00 per hour
Due my extensive training, experience, qualifications and expertise, these are Highly Specialised SEN Teacher fees - not general tutoring charges. I only provide a full 'right from the start' approach rather than continuous repetition of classroom printout worksheets.
Please call for any further information or questions you may have.
I look forward to hearing from you.
