Tutoring Experience

After earning my B.Ed (Hons) in Education from ​the University of Cambridge in 2003, I began my teaching ​career at a primary school in Ely, Cambridgeshire. I have passion for teaching English and Geography and achieved top A-Level grades in the subjects. I now teach online - my lessons are interactive, varied and inclusive.

From 2005 to 2013, I taught at a large primary school in ​Cambridge, spending six years with Year 6 students ​before moving on to teach Years 3 and 4. During this ​period, I held positions as Head of Key Stage and Head of ​English, and was a valued member of the Senior ​Leadership Team. My teaching consistently received an ​'outstanding' rating under the OFSTED framework.

In 2013, I relocated to New Zealand, where I continued my ​successful teaching career at a prestigious independent ​school, a large primary school, and a junior high school.

After the birth of my daughter in 2017, we returned to the ​UK, where I resumed my career in a pastoral role at a ​school in Wiltshire. I am now founder of and tutor at Home Star Tuition.
