"Amelia has been a great teacher for our son. She has built an excellent rapport with him. He looks forward to the lessons and is learning at a fast pace. She is both kind and professional."

"Amelia puts lots of effort into her teaching and lessons. She always pays attention to my child’s strengths and weaknesses. I would definitely recommend her."

"A lovely reliable teacher. Amelia has given great confidence to my 8 year old, who was very shy and guarded. My daughter always looks forward to her sessions. Her school teacher has seen a significant improvement which shows what a great teacher she is."

"Amelia is a wonderful teacher. She is very reliable and arrives prepared to teach our 5 year old daughter. She has a way of helping and guiding which I believe only a teacher has the skill and experience to do. She is friendly, kind and well organised to maximise her time with our daughter. Amelia also goes out of her way to research, outside of her teaching hours, what may possibly help our daughter. In summary, we are delighted with Amelia and would highly recommend her."

"Amelia is an outstanding teacher who found a special approach to my little Russian-speaking son. He couldn't say even a word in English but after a few months of learning with Amelia, he speaks a lot of words and sentences. Amelia's lessons are always fun and productive and I strongly recommend her as a reliable tutor."

"Amelia is great and has really helped my daughter with all her school areas. Her performance has improved significantly. Amelia has a lovely style and gets the best out of her, which is not easy. She never complains about having to do a session, which she has done with other tutors in the past. Thanks!"

"Amelia is great at spotting gaps in learning and coming up with fun ways to learn. My son really enjoys his lessons with Amelia and has made lots of progress."

Tutoring Experience

Have taught EYFS, KS1 and KS2 classes within schools for 6 years. I've also been tutoring online and in person for 2 years.

Tutoring Approach

When teaching I enjoy using engaging resources to create an exciting and fun learning environment. I also believe it is important to get to know a child so that they feel comfortable, and so that I can personalise each lesson to incorporate their interests.

I work hard to build a child’s confidence through my positive teaching approach. This involves appropriate pace, clear examples and explanations, and suitable amounts of practice.
