My Experience
I am a private tutor offering tuition to children from 5 – 18. My past tutoring experience is diverse and ranges from teaching young children to read and write, to building History of Art museum programs for adults. Having worked for art galleries in London, I am passionate about art and have found creative activities are a great tool to unlock the potential of young children (4 – 6), especially when they are learning to read and write. As a trainee psychotherapist with past experience as a support worker to troubled teens, I am also well placed to assist children and adolescents that struggle to stay motivated in school.
