An experienced teacher and private tutor with extensive experience preparing pupils for 7+ and 8+ entrance examinations for leading London independent schools. Skilled at building strong relationships with children and creating engaging, high-expectation learning environments that foster confidence, independence and academic success. Passionate about extending learning beyond the classroom through literature, museums, cultural experiences and activities tailored to each child's interests. Currently completing an MA in Education while providing bespoke one-to-one tuition.
Outside of education, I am a qualified 200-hour yoga teacher, marathon runner and keen sports fan, particularly tennis and football. I enjoy encouraging active, balanced lifestyles and using shared interests to build positive, supportive relationships with young people.
I provide bespoke one-to-one English and mathematics tuition, including preparing pupils for 7+ and 8+ entrance examinations for leading London independent schools, including King's College School, St Paul's Juniors and Westminster Under School. I design engaging, personalised lessons tailored to each pupil’s individual strengths, learning style and academic goals, while building confidence and developing strong subject knowledge. I work closely with pupils and families to establish positive relationships and create a supportive, motivating learning environment.
I planned and delivered engaging lessons across the curriculum, supporting pupils of all abilities with targeted extension activities to challenge higher-attaining learners. I led a twice-weekly after-school 7+ preparation club, providing academic challenge, interview coaching and personalised guidance to support pupils’ progression to leading London day schools. Beyond the classroom, I contributed to wider school life by organising educational trips to venues such as the Natural History Museum, theatre visits and team-building activities, as well as supporting termly instrumental concerts, charity events and community initiatives. I built strong relationships with pupils and families, fostering a positive, inclusive environment that supported both academic achievement and personal development.
As Academic Lead, alongside my teaching responsibilities, I supported and promoted high academic standards across the school. I led curriculum planning, monitored pupil progress, and worked closely with staff to ensure consistency in teaching and learning. I also oversaw assessment cycles and supported data analysis to identify areas for development. In addition, I provided coaching and guidance to staff based on performance insights and pupil outcomes.
I developed and implemented strategies to promote pupils’ physical and mental wellbeing, embedding wellbeing practices across the school day. I led staff yoga sessions to support staff wellbeing and a positive school culture. I also refined the PSHE curriculum to ensure it was inclusive, engaging, and met statutory requirements, and promoted cross-curricular learning by linking subjects and using technology to enhance engagement and collaboration.
I organised and managed the school’s Sports Day, planning inclusive athletic events that promoted participation and teamwork. I also coordinated public speaking competitions, supporting pupils to build confidence and communication skills. In addition, I led the school hockey club, delivering training sessions, coaching skills and tactics, and promoting teamwork and an inclusive club environment.
I provided clerical and administrative support to engineering teams, managing schedules, coordinating meetings, preparing reports, and maintaining accurate project documentation. I assisted with data entry, tracked project progress, handled correspondence, and ensured smooth communication between team members and other departments.
I built and maintained strong relationships with new and existing accounts to drive revenue growth, understanding clients’ needs and providing tailored solutions. I proactively identified opportunities for upselling and cross-selling, ensured high levels of customer satisfaction, and collaborated with internal teams to deliver seamless service.
