My Summary
About Me
Hello! I am an experienced primary school teacher and tutor, who has been passionately dedicated to the field of education since 2013. With a teaching tenure that began in 2016, I have had the privilege of impacting the lives of numerous students throughout my career.
Teaching is not just a profession for me—it is my calling. Witnessing the growth and development of young minds brings me immense joy and fulfillment. I believe that education is the key to unlocking the potential within each student, and I strive to create a nurturing and engaging learning environment where they can thrive.
Beyond the classroom, I have a deep love for reading. Exploring different genres, immersing myself in captivating stories, and expanding my knowledge are all integral parts of my life. I firmly believe in the power of literature to inspire, educate, and foster empathy in both young and old alike.
In addition to reading, I cherish spending quality time with my children. Being a parent has further enriched my understanding of the unique needs and perspectives of students, allowing me to connect with them on a more personal level. The bonds I share with my own children have taught me the importance of empathy, patience, and adaptability in the realm of education.
Moreover, when I am not engrossed in the world of teaching, I indulge in my passion for creating illustrations. Drawing has always been a creative outlet for me, allowing me to express myself and explore my imagination. This artistic endeavour not only brings me tranquility but also serves as a source of inspiration in the classroom, where I encourage my students to explore their own creativity.
As an educator, I am committed to instilling a lifelong love of learning in my students. I strive to foster an inclusive, supportive, and intellectually stimulating environment that promotes critical thinking, collaboration, and personal growth. Together, let us embark on a journey of knowledge, discovery, and endless possibilities!I am a qualified Primary School teacher with a wealth of experience working in KS1 and KS2.

I am passionate about fostering a love for literacy in young learners, enabling them to become confident and proficient readers and writers.
In the realm of mathematics, I believe in making learning interactive and engaging.

By creating a supportive and stimulating learning environment, I strive to instill a sense of excitement and curiosity, fostering a strong mathematical foundation in my students.
