    Experienced primary teacher providing 1:1 tutoring in English

    I am a fully qualified primary teacher who has taught both in the UK and internationally. I have over 25-years' classroom experience teaching children from Year 1 to Year 6, especially those with English as an additional language. I taught for 20 years in the UK, before moving to the international sector where I have worked in Myanmar, China and Bangkok for the top-tier schools of Dulwich College and Bangkok Patana School. I have extensive knowledge and understanding of the U.K. education system at Primary level.

    In addition to being a classroom teacher, I provide 1:1 personalised tutoring. I teach both English and mathematics, helping to extend able students and also support those needing extra catch-up. My lessons are interactive and engaging with lots of opportunities for you to talk – learn from your mistakes – practise new skills – review your learning – and of course use games and technology to make learning enjoyable. My knowledge, experience and teaching methods will ensure that you achieve your intended learning outcomes.

    About Me

    I'm Chris, a fully qualified primary teacher who has taught both in the UK and also internationally in Asia. I have over 25-years' experience teaching primary school children, especially those who have English as an additional language. I'm keen to help you improve your skills in English and maths. I love teaching, travelling, swimming and exploring new countries and cultures.

    I graduated from university in Australia with a Bachelor of Arts in Education degree and a Bachelor of Education degree; which qualifies me to teach in primary schools. When I moved to the UK to live, I competed the QTS (Qualified Teacher Status) award, which qualifies me to teach in primary schools throughout the UK.

    I have experience working from Year 1 to Year 6; both internationally and in the UK. Throughout my career I have held several leadership positions in mathematics, assessment, and curriculum development, so I have strong subject knowledge and am very clear of the U.K. teaching curriculum.

    I have worked for some top international schools in Bangkok, Shanghai and Yangon that attract families who have high aspirations for their children. I share the same expectations that children can achieve, and encourage all my students to be open-minded, think big and challenge themselves. I use a friendly, patient and supportive approach, with plenty of opportunities for discussion, practice, and use of IT to engage and make learning fun in every lesson.

    My experience includes working with many children and families who do not speak English as their first language. I pride myself on building safe, caring and supportive relationships between all students and their families.

    Education

    I was born in Australia and completed all of my education and teacher training there which includes:

    Bachelor of Arts in Education Degree
    Bachelor of Education Degree
    Qualified Teacher Status (UK)

    Experience / Qualifications

    I have taught in the UK education system for over 20 years after moving to the International Education sector where I have taught for the past 10 years.

    Primary School English: It's all just ticking boxes. (Key Stage 1 and Key Stage 2)
    School moves fast and it can often feel like you are speeding through with your hands open just hoping you can grab something - anything - that you can grab to slow you enough that you can say: Yes, I got this. English is a core subject in primary schools, the most important subject. As a primary school teacher, my English sessions will be structured so that you can transition much easier from school to tutoring lessons. As a student of mine I am committed to finding the best way for you to understand the trickiest areas of English. I often tell children that English is just ticking boxes. Does your sentence have correct punctuation? How about grammar? Have you used conjunctions? My role is to understand where your weakness are so that you can understand enough that your weaknesses become your strengths. My sessions are not strictly designed for children. No matter what stage in life you are at, whether you're a teenager or adult, I can cater to your needs.

My tutoring will be tailored to your individual needs and areas you need to work on. I will explore which methods and interests you benefit from and make each lesson fun and engaging.
