Claire

With 12 years of teaching experience, I bring a wealth of knowledge and a nurturing approach to every tutoring session. Currently teaching Year 5 and 6 at an independent school in North London by day, I dedicate my afternoons to 11plus online tutoring. My teaching philosophy revolves around personalised learning and fostering a supportive environment where students feel encouraged to explore and grow. I believe in making learning enjoyable and effective by tailoring lessons to individual needs and learning styles.

Being tech-savvy, I utilize platforms like Zoom to conduct engaging and interactive sessions. Whether it’s using virtual whiteboards for math problems or working with multiple digital resources such as Atom, Literacy Planet, Bond online and Matific, I ensure that every lesson is dynamic and enriching. My international experience teaching in Asia, Europe and Africa brings a global perspective to our sessions, enhancing understanding and multiple approaches for success. I believe that each student learns in their own unique way and that as teachers we need to try and help them create a learning path for success. Currently, 11 plus prep is a major part of my day to day work!

I specialise in providing targeted support in mathematics and have worked with many IEP’s and SEND specialised students. With a focused understanding of individual learning needs, I tailor my sessions to address specific areas of improvement, ensuring each student progresses confidently. My proven 11 plus maths curriculum is designed to cover essential topics comprehensively, preparing students effectively for exams through structured lessons and rigorous past paper drills. By honing in on key concepts and practicing exam-style questions, I empower students to excel in their mathematical abilities and approach assessments with confidence.

Outside of teaching, I have a passion for travel and cooking, which often find their way into our discussions, making learning not only educational but also culturally enriching. In math, I specialize in providing clear explanations and practical strategies to build confidence and proficiency. Whether it’s tackling fractions or mastering times tables, I work closely with students and parents to achieve set goals and milestones.

Reach out today and let’s embark on a rewarding academic journey together. Whether your child needs help with key stage 2 subjects or you’re preparing for upcoming exams, I’m here to support and guide every step of the way.
