I am very passionate about teaching Health and Social Care and British Sign Language. Following a change in personal circumstances and becoming a mum in 2021, I launched my online business Removed. In April 2024 this was re-branded to Removed, to reflect it's growth. I am a naturally kind and caring person. I am a mum which I love and my son is just awesome and inspires me to be the best I can be for him everyday. I have a supportive husband and two fun boxer dogs that are always up to mischief. I have written my first Children's Book 'My Friend Kay'.
I feel fortunate to have worked in health and social care for over 14 years. I have worked in various Health and Social Care roles including Support Worker, Registered Care Manager and Learning Support Assistant within education settings for adults with additional needs.
I completed A-Level Health and Social Care, in the first year it was released and achieved my first ever A grade. Since then, I have had the honour of working alongside and with some amazing colleagues and supported individuals. I have experience in supporting ages from 5 to 92 and with a range of health and care needs. I have supported individuals with a variety of physical disabilities, deteriorating health needs, learning disabilities and many other varying needs. I managed a staff team of 35 people as a registered care manager. This included 9 members of staff that are Deaf and use British Sign Language as their native language. I was successful in the appointment of manager despite not knowing British Sign Language and felt it was inappropriate they were expected to cope without a manager who could effectively communicate with them. This was the start of my mission to learn British Sign Language, the native visual language of the UK. I really enjoyed doing this and during a years personal leave I completed my Level 1 & 2 qualification and I am now passionate about promoting British Sign Language to be a natural part of education and daily life for all living within the UK.
I am a very calm person and like to put my learners at ease and find ways of engaging with my learners in a way they find fun and interesting. I adapt my resources and tutoring for each individual to ensure they achieve their goals as quickly and stress-free as possible. I ask students to send me the question or topic they are having difficulty with before the online meeting so that I am fully prepared to help.
