Isabel T
Energetic English tutor
I have worked in education most of my career, firstly as a Primary teacher from 1986 and later as TEFL teacher from 2009.Since 2017 I also started to tutor 11+ to yr4 and yr5 children as there was quite a demand at the time.

I specialise in English and Maths, with a passion for helping children to engage and progress in the skills required for the Entrance exams. I have an abundance of past test papers...

I also come from a big family, so I love spending time with them when we are together. I grew up internationally and lived in several countries before finally moving back to the UK.I also write my...
