***Online lessons only ***Hi my name is Siobhan! I am a dedicated, patient and enthusiastic primary teacher who has 8 years experience in different roles within the primary and secondary education system including supporting children with SEN as well as SATs interventions.

Lauren O
Enthusiastic English tutoring from a university student
Hi I’m Lauren, a biomedical science student at Cardiff University. I would describe myself as a patient, caring and enthusiastic person with a love of learning. This love of learning is why I chose to take 4 A levels and 12 GCSEs, because I wanted to learn as much as I could. However, school is not just about learning, it is also about taking tests and exams. Each student has a different relationship with learning and with exams, and the pressure that comes along with them. Which is why I strive to ensure every student enjoys learning, whether the goal is to boost their confidence or improve e...
