SATs Aren't Just Tests – They're a Foundation for What's Next
It’s easy to see SATs as just another hurdle, but the skills they build are the bedrock of your child's future learning. Mastering arithmetic and reasoning doesn't just secure a good result; it prepares them for the challenges of GCSE Maths. When they can confidently analyse a text and structure an argument, they're not just passing an English paper – they're learning to communicate clearly for the rest of their lives. This is their chance to build the resilience and knowledge they'll carry into secondary school and beyond.

Over the past 20 years, I have had the opportunity to develop my teaching skills, gaining valuable experience in teaching learners who need extra support to overcome barriers to achieving.

My qualifications such as BA(Hons) Degree in Education where I used Autism in the classroom as my Dissertation, Certificate in Education, L3 Awareness in ASD and L5 Adult Specialist in English , are necessary to implement resources to motivate such barriers and complex needs, including...

I am a Royal Holloway, University London graduate with a BA and MA, specialising in arts and humanities. I am very keen to help pupils to learn and fully understand what they might not get in a classroom environment.

Lorrayne N
Lorrayne was extremely kind, patient and understanding when working with my son. He has cerebral palsy, selective mutism and anxiety, so finding the right tutor who truly understands his needs is very important to us.
She took the time to speak with me in detail to understand Isaac’s background and the challenges he faces in school. I really appreciated how knowledgeable she is about supporting children with anxiety and communication difficulties. Isaac felt comfortable during the session and was able to engage with the activities she set, which was very encouraging for us.
Lorrayne also shared helpful ideas and strategies to support Isaac’s communication and confidence, which showed how experienced she is working with children with additional needs.
We are really looking forward to continuing lessons with her and feel confident that Isaac will benefit from her support.

Christy J
Christy showed extreme patience with my son during his English SATs tutoring.
Her tutoring style was such that she always kept him engaged and interested in his sessions.
The results have been seen already from his mock results. He has improved in all sections of his English SATs.
Christy provided homework in the form of spellings that we were able to practice in-between sessions.
She also worked with my son on past papers with him completing these under exam conditions.
I am so grateful to Christy and all the work and supports she did with my son.
I will be using her again in the future for other subjects.
Thank you Christy
