Tuition
Hello! I'm Francesca, a passionate and dedicated primary education specialist. With a warm and nurturing approach, I strive to create a positive learning environment where every child can thrive. My background as a qualified SENDCO (Special Educational Needs and Disabilities Coordinator) allows me to tailor my teaching methods to suit diverse learning needs, ensuring that each student receives the support they require to succeed.
I run my own tutoring business from a purpose-built learning space, offering both one-on-one tutoring sessions and specialised phonics classes. This allows me to provide a focused, distraction-free environment that's conducive to learning and growth.
My teaching philosophy centers on creating a supportive, encouraging, and stimulating learning environment. I believe that every child has unique potential, and it's my job to help them unlock it.
My tutoring approach:
Personalised Learning Plans: I assess each student's strengths, weaknesses, and learning style to create tailored strategies that address their specific needs.
Multi-Sensory Techniques: I incorporate visual, auditory, and kinesthetic methods to cater to different learning preferences and reinforce understanding.
Confidence Building: I focus on fostering a growth mindset, celebrating progress, and helping students overcome challenges to build their self-esteem.
Regular Communication: I maintain open lines of communication with parents, providing updates on progress and suggesting ways to support learning at home.
Engaging Resources: I use a mix of traditional and modern teaching tools, including interactive games and technology, to make learning fun and memorable.
Holistic Development: Beyond academic skills, I also emphasise the development of social skills, critical thinking, and creativity.
Whether your child needs help with core subjects, requires specialised support for learning difficulties, or simply wants to build confidence in their abilities, I'm here to help them achieve their full potential in a nurturing and positive environment.
