Teaching Maths and English to primary school pupils

I currently work at a Pupil Referral Unit in Salford as a KS1 teacher but also have experience teaching KS2. I specialise in teaching Grammar, punctuation and spelling in English. I also specialise in teaching a wide variety of topics in Maths. I can gain access to academic content websites which will provide me with lesson plans and mark schemes for all our lessons. I am educated to degree level, having attained a first in Counselling & Psychotherapy studies. I also specialise in teaching children who are SEN or have behavioural issues and have a lot of experience working with and teaching these sorts of pupils. If you have a primary school child who needs to gain a more deeper understanding in a specific subject area or just wants to brush up their Grammar please get in touch.
