Welcome


I offer 1:1 tuition for children who need extra support with their Maths and Literacy skills in Hitchin, Letchworth  and the surrounding areas.



Most children experience difficulties at some point in their school career. I offer support in all aspects of Maths  and Literacy in sessions which are planned specifically for individual needs and abillities.


I am a qualified teacher with over 20 years experience as a class teacher. I started my own tuition buisness in 2013 and now work with clients aged between 5 and 16.


Many children who are experiencing difficulties at school also feel less confident about asking for help. By working 1:1  with them in their own homes, they are more relaxed and their confidence grows as well as their skills.


I have experience of helping children to prepare for end of year tests, KS1 and KS2 SATs the 11 plus and GCSEs. I  can help to fill gaps in understanding, support  with tricky school homework as necessary and set additional homework if this is requested.

What would a session involve?


  • Sessions are usually an hour each week
  • I come to your home and bring all learning materials - you only need to provide somewhere quiet to work, and perhaps a cup of tea!
  • Teaching methods will be varied throughout the session in order to maintain focus
  • Games and practical tasks are often used to practise the skills taught
  • Discussion and questioning are on-going throughout the session to ensure understanding
  • At the end of the session, I will review your child's learning with them and agree the focus for the following session
  • Feedback will be given to you at the end of each session so that you can continue to support the child's learning between sessions
