A Little About Me
I noticed that creativity just wasn't on the curriculum, so armed with a degree in English Literature & Education and my experience as a former school TA - I decided that I would change that!
I've now been inspiring children to write stories & poems in Steyning, Shoreham & Henfield for five years and I have big plans for the future.
In fact, I just trained with the Bristol Dyslexia Centre and I can't wait to share some brilliant new writing tips & tools with you!
1. Is tutoring right for my child?
If your child is struggling to write stories or put their ideas onto paper, then they'll thrive with a creative writing tutor.
Tutoring shouldn't be like school. It should be a fun way to boost your child's skills, with games and activities that put them at the heart of the lesson.
2. What will my child learn?
Your child will learn how to unleash their inner story-teller or poet!
They'll power up their writing skills with similes, metaphors, onomatopoeia and rhyme. And they'll polish their verbs and vocabulary to make their stories sparkle!
3. How do you support dyslexia?
I'm not a specialist dyslexia tutor, but I'd love to make my lessons as engaging and inclusive for your child as possible.
They might like to use a laptop or a tablet to type, or to record their ideas vocally, and that's great! I'll use a visual timetable to help them stay on track. Plus, I'll give them extra thinking time, reading time and writing time.
4. Will you travel to my house?
Absolutely! If you live in the Steyning, Shoreham and Henfield area, I'll be happy to travel to you. This also means lessons in your living room for Upper Beeding, Small Dole, Partridge Green and Southwick too!
5. Do you tutor lessons online?
While I mostly tutor in person, I tutor online too! If you live in the UK, but outside of the Steyning, Shoreham and Henfield area, we can instead connect for a 1:1 lesson on Zoom.
