Special Educational Needs Confused about Maths? :-/ I can make it clear :-)
I hope from my picture you can see my sessions are very different from the traditional classroom. I am a qualified Maths teacher with a Bachelor's in Engineering and Mathematics.But however many qualifications I have the lesson is fundamentally about you and your way of learning and not me. Studies have shown that playing and exploring as a form of learning is much more effective than repetition and memorising alone.Through years of working with students, I've found this to be true.The more the student is engaged and involved in the lesson the more they learn.My goal is to make maths and our session...

Laura T
Laura conducted the lesson in a way that was suitable to my needs. She broke down the reading material so that I could read it paragraph by paragraph. She also backed it up by devising questions about the text to aid my comprehension. Towards the end of the lesson she reviewed how much I had learnt from what I read so far. I really like her style of teaching.

John M
I would like to share my positive experience with John's English lessons. My daughter thoroughly enjoys every session and looks forward to each one with great enthusiasm. John’s empathetic, professional, and friendly approach makes him stand out, and he creates a supportive and positive learning environment that truly benefits my daughter.
My daughter has special needs, including autism and attention challenges, but with John's help, she has been able to stay engaged and focused throughout the full hour of each lesson. In just a few lessons, she has made really good progress, and I am extremely grateful for John's patience, dedication, and encouragement.
His constant praise and positive reinforcement have been invaluable in boosting my daughter’s confidence and motivation. We are very thankful for the positive impact John has had on her learning journey.
Highly recommended!
