Sacha

Online Maths and English Teacher

I teach Maths and English to children with or without special educational needs. I am a fully qualified teacher and consultant based in West London with over fifteen years of teaching experience in primary, secondary and special education schools.

I hold a Master's degree in Special and Inclusive Education and have extensive experience in supporting children with autism, ADHD and behavioural difficulties. In addition, I am also a literacy specialist and qualified dyslexia teacher and assessor registered with the British Dyslexia Association. As such, I support children who are struggling with reading, writing, spelling and I also provide specialist reports for statutory exams for those who need them.

As a qualified teacher, my students enjoy great exam success, as my approach is easy to follow and I also take time to understand each child that I work with. Indeed, I am 100% dedicated to the success of my students and believe that each individual child is a unique gift that has unlimited potential.

Tutoring Experience

I am a fully qualified teacher, having gained a PGCE degree in Spanish, French and primary education from the Institute of Education, University of London. As a teacher with over fifteen years of experience, I have taught across all key stages in primary, secondary and special schools. As a result, I have sound knowledge of both the primary and secondary curriculum as well as the Special Educational Needs Code of Practice.

I hold a Master's degree in Special and Inclusive Education from the University of Roehampton and I am a specialist dyslexia teacher and assessor with the British Dyslexia Association. Apart from one-to-one classes, I also run reading, handwriting and spelling courses on Sundays as well as creative writing and touch typing classes during the holidays. Expect individual attention and excellent results, as I have a strong commitment to fully developing the strengths and talents of each individual pupil I work with.

Tutoring Approach

I am currently teaching children between 5 and 18. Each child receives an Individualised Education Plan which is used to guide them in their learning and they have all made excellent progress. Indeed, I find it greatly rewarding to watch my students grow in confidence and ability. I take a holistic approach to tutoring and understand that education is not just about teaching subjects in a mechanical fashion but that other factors may influence the performance of pupils, for example, anxiety or low self-esteem. Taking the latter in mind, I have turned around the most anxious and reluctant students providing them with a love of learning and an ambition to succeed.

I have a strong commitment to fully developing the strengths and talents of each individual pupil I teach and adopt a caring and thoughtful approach to students I work with. Most importantly as professional teacher with over fifteen years of experience, my classes are easy to follow and best of all fun! I always tell my students that if you are determined to learn then no one can stop you, as anything is possible with a positive attitude and belief in yourself. As your tutor, I will prepare and guide you on every step of your learning journey.
