About Rachael
The most rewarding part of being a tutor/teacher is seeing that 'lightbulb moment' when a child goes from being 'stuck' to 'unstuck'! This can be a relatively quick transformation, but sometimes takes a good deal of perseverance and practice. When it happens though, it is such a valuable motivation to keep going. I firmly believe that it's good to find learning tricky at times and that making mistakes helps us all to grow as learners. I love supporting children through this process and seeing them flourish. My background and experience gives me the tools I need to help young learners with all aspects of primary school English and Maths. I look forward to working with you! I have a BA Hons in English Literature and a Primary PGCE. I have an Enhanced DBS certificate.

I offer tailored individual lessons for children across the primary school age range from Reception to Y6. I am passionate about helping children to overcome any barriers they have by working on gaps in their learning and helping to prepare them for tests, such as the Year One Phonics Screening Check, end of Key Stage 2 SATs and 11+. With 3 decades in the profession, I have excellent subject knowledge and a wealth of experience teaching children of varying ages, abilities and with a range of educational needs. My approach is to show children through modelling and demonstrating the learning and then giving them the opportunity to 'have a go', gradually moving towards greater independence. Lessons will usually begin with a warm-up and recap of previous learning before we move on to something new. Building confidence and resilience is the key to success!

Rachael has been teaching my son for a few months now - she is so engaging and makes learning fun! My son really looks forward to his sessions with Rachael and we have already seen improvements in his school work.
I'm so glad we found Rachael!My twins and I highly recommend Rachael because of her huge enthusiasm for learning and her ability to instil this in even the most reluctant, disengaged learners.
In Years 3 and 4, both my twins had their individual learning needs in maths and reading and lacked the self confidence and determination to overcome them. Rachael identified their key barriers to learning and provided the support needed to ensure they were prepared for their next steps. One of them hated maths at the start but really caught up with his peers and consequently changed his attitude to the subject and improved his self esteem across the board.
Rachael’s infectious love of books encouraged my other twin to develop a lifelong love of reading and greater confidence in writing.
Both benefitted greatly from Rachael’s expertise, professionalism and understanding of how children learn. She is well organised, has the ability to explain things clearly and will challenge children to be the best they can be.
Both twins went on to pass the 11+ to go to grammar school and be successful learners.Rachael worked with my daughter in her SATs year, very patiently helping her to overcome her reticence in expressing her ideas in creative writing, and subsequently to become a much more confident and resilient learner. Recognising my daughters love of reading, Rachael built on this, suggesting new books and authors for her to try, always showing a keen interest in her opinions on these. Rachael has amazing subject knowledge and creativity, she makes learning fun and certainly had the ability to enthuse my daughter. Thank you for all your help Rachael, I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend you as a tutor to others.
Rachael has taught 2 of my daughters and both said she is the best teacher they have ever had. Rachael's knowledge and ability to pitch are unbelievable. Her manner and teaching style would suit any type of learner as Rachael is so enthusiastic and passionate about learning. I can't recommend Rachael enough.
Rachael is an amazing English expert! She is extremely professional and has really helped my son with his Year 6 writing - her support and belief in him helped him gain Greater Depth in his Year 6 SATs. Rachael helped boost his confidence in his writing and gave great reading recommendations to support his love of books too. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Rachael for anyone needing extra help or an extra push! Thank you, Rachael!
After a parents evening it was clear that our son needed additional support for his up and coming SATs exams. As with most parents we wanted the best for our son and after having various tutors who were recommended, our son wasn’t seeing the benefit. That was until we were recommended and got in touch with Rachel. She not only worked with our son but also with us, guilt free! Rachel is exceptionally professional and we were so pleased that we had finally found someone who gave our son all the support he needed. The proof is in the pudding and I am happy to say that our son starts a new school with confidence and with an appetite for subjects that he had struggled with previously. Also with SATs grades that far exceeded ours, and his teachers expectations. All of this would not have been possible without Rachel and her approach so thank you.
