Patient and experienced primary teacher
I am an experienced primary school teacher living in Midlothian. I enjoy teaching all subjects taught at school, with a particular passion for numeracy and maths. Problem solving skills and critical thinking skills are important for later years and so this is something I proactively try to encourage in both my teaching and tutoring. I am also very patient by nature and use this to create a calm and positive environment where children feel comfortable to try new things.
Subjects I tutor include numeracy, maths, reading, writing, social studies, languages (French and Italian) as well as the expressive arts.
I am a mother of two young children and so will be taking a short career break. This will give me an opportunity to explore tutoring in more depth and develop positive one to one relationships with young learners.
Thank you for reading my bio and if you have any questions please do not hesitate to get in touch.
