Tanya

Online English and Physics Teacher

Throughout my years of working in a classroom, I have loved every second of my job! In July 2024, I “hung up” my classroom teaching hat for a while, having made the decision to look after my one-year-old son. However, teaching remains a passion of mine and I would love to be able to have the best of both worlds: to raise my son and support students through their studies. I have a plethora of “tips and tricks” - particularly for students in KS2 - to help them to succeed and have been told by staff and students alike that I am a energetic, engaging and empathic teacher. I have a deep love of reading - something that I have used to engage the children that I have taught - and am a big advocate for encouraging reading both at home and in the classroom. Finally, I am known to bake an incredible lemon cake!

Tutoring Experience

Education has always been my passion. I first embarked on my journey to becoming a teacher by working in a Secondary School as a Learning Mentor and Year 7 Tutor. I loved being able to support the students moving from KS2 to KS3, as well as seeing children who had additional learning difficulties to succeed! After three years, I decided to explore Primary School education, where I joined as a Teaching Assistant, running intervention groups for children SEND. From this role, I became a trainee teacher, gaining my QTS in 2019. I have primarily taught across KS2. I became a Year Leader in Year 6 and thus have a sound understanding of both the SATs and 11+ examinations, as well as the Year 5 and 6 curriculum.

Tutoring Approach

I believe that in order for students to succeed, they need to have fun. Therefore, I make it my mission to make my lessons as engaging and enjoyable as possible - I love a learning song! I pride myself on putting the student and their needs at the heart of what I do, understanding that no two learners are the same and adapting my teaching practise to suit the needs of the child.
