About Claire

- What kind of experience do you have?

I have 16 years experience as a primary school teacher and private tutor. I started my career teaching Key Stage 1, but moved into Key Stage 2 where I have taught for the last 10 years. In my most recent post, I specialised in teaching small classes where children were able to get the intense support needed to boost their understanding of subjects. I have a comprehensive understanding of how to break concepts down so children can gain an understanding where they may previously have had difficulty.

- Do you have an up-to-date DBS (Disclosure & Barring Service, formerly CRB) Certificate?

Yes

- Tell me about some of your current students.

I currently tutor Year 5/6 children for 11+ preparation. I cover all aspects of the test, which include English, mathematics, verbal reasoning and non verbal reasoning. I also tutor English and Mathematics to students of different ages, mostly who are in Key Stage 2.

I am an enthusiastic tutor who can offer support for your child as they move through primary school. I tailor my approach to suit the learning styles and ages of my tutees. I aim to enhance your child's confidence and understanding.

- Which subject(s) do you teach?

I am a qualified primary school teacher, therefore I am able to teach all curriculum areas in primary schools. Recently I have been teaching specialist English and Mathematics booster lessons to small classes in a primary school with the aim of preparing the children for the Year 6 SATs. I also have been tutoring privately in my home, covering the 11+ preparation, Mathematics and English.

- Tell me about your qualifications.

I graduated in 2000 with a 4 year, Bachelor of Primary Education degree, from the University of Canberra, Australia. I specialised in Mathematics and Sociology. I came to England immediately after graduating and have always taught in the British schooling system. I obtained my English Qualified Teacher Status (QTS) in 2005.

- How much do you charge?

I charge £30 per hour for 11+, Mathematics and English tutoring in my home.

- Where do you teach?

I only tutor from home where I can guarantee a good learning environment and have access to all the necessary resources. I live in Eltham (SE9). My current Tutees come from Eltham, New Eltham, Sidcup and Chiselhurst. My 11+ Tutees are preparing for the North West Kent and Bexley Tests, as well as entry to St Olave's Grammar School and Newstead Woods.

- When are you available?

I tutor in the evenings during the week and in the mornings on the weekend.

- Which ages and levels do you teach?

I specialise in Key Stages 2 (ages 7-11). I cover all aspects of the 11+ preparation, which include English, Mathematics, verbal reasoning and non verbal reasoning. I also tutor Mathematics and English for children mainly in Key Stage 2, but on occasion I have tutored children in Key Stage 1.

- Which qualifications do you prepare your students for?

I prepare children for the 11+ entrance exams. I also tutor children in English and Mathematics, with the aim of improving their grades for the Year 6 SATs. The results of these test will determine where your child will 'sit' within the cohort of children at their allocated secondary school.
