About Sarah
Hello, I’m Sarah. I am a fully qualified teacher with over a decade of experience teaching children aged 4 to 11. I’ve worked across both Key Stage 1 and Key Stage 2 and have held subject leadership roles in maths, music, art and modern foreign languages. I am passionate about helping children feel seen, supported and successful in their learning. My teaching style is calm, patient and highly individualised. I understand that every child is different, so I tailor my lessons to suit each learner’s pace, interests and needs. I have extensive experience supporting children with a wide range of special educational needs, including autism, ADHD and trauma-related difficulties. I work hard to create a space where children feel safe and able to take learning risks without fear of getting things wrong. I hold a science specialism from my degree and have strong subject knowledge across the primary curriculum. I offer support in core subjects such as phonics, reading, writing and maths. I also provide structured, confidence-building preparation for Key Stage 1 and 2 SATs, as well as 11+ entrance exams. If you’re looking for a tutor who is nurturing, knowledgeable and genuinely invested in your child’s growth, I’d love to work with you.

I offer practical, calm, child-led sessions for pupils who find traditional English teaching tough. I work with ADHD, autism, anxiety, school avoidance and low confidence. What I offer • One-to-one English support from early reading to Year 6 • Structured phonics, spelling and handwriting support • Hands-on teaching using playdough, magnetic letters, whiteboards and simple games • Short tasks that reduce pressure and build confidence • Clear routines that help with reading, sentence work and writing • Strong understanding of sensory needs and slow processing • Trauma-informed approach with no shame, no rushing and no forced eye contact How I teach • Break skills into small steps • Use patterns and visuals to help things stick • Build independence without pushing too fast • Adapt every session to how your child presents that day Who this suits • Pupils who freeze in class • Pupils who find spelling overwhelming • Pupils who need movement and practical tools • Pupils who struggle with working memory or distractibility If you want English and phonics to feel calmer and more achievable for your child, send me a message and we can set up a first session.
