Specialized Teaching

Every child is unique, with their own strengths, challenges, and ways of learning. I provide bespoke, one-to-one teaching programs specifically tailored to meet the individual needs of students with Autism, Dyslexia, Dyspraxia, Dyscalculia, and ADD/ADHD.

Understanding that no two learners are the same, I take the time to carefully assess each student’s profile and develop an engaging, structured, and supportive educational plan. Through thoughtful differentiation and evidence-based strategies, I ensure that each child is able to learn in a way that suits them best.

This personalised approach not only supports academic progress but also nurtures confidence, independence, and a positive attitude towards learning.

For younger students, I use a multi-sensory teaching approach that transforms learning into an enjoyable and engaging experience. Lessons are designed to feel like play, incorporating movement, visual aids, hands-on activities, and games to reinforce key concepts in a way that feels natural and fun. I adapt my energy and teaching style to match that of each child, particularly those with high energy levels, ensuring they remain focused and involved throughout the session.

At this developmental stage, building a strong foundation in literacy, numeracy, and communication is essential. I place a strong emphasis on developing early learning skills while nurturing curiosity, creativity, and a positive attitude toward education. Emotional security and trust are also key, and I work to build strong, supportive relationships with each child to help them feel confident and safe in their learning environment.

By meeting children where they are developmentally and tailoring lessons to their interests, I help foster not only academic growth but also a genuine love of learning.

Older students often face increasing academic pressures alongside growing social and emotional challenges. I provide a supportive and respectful learning environment that recognises their individual needs, learning differences, and personal experiences. My goal is to ensure that each student feels valued, understood, and capable.

I adapt the standard curriculum to make it relevant and accessible, helping students see the real-world value of their education. By connecting learning to their interests, goals, and everyday life, I foster deeper engagement and intrinsic motivation.

In addition to academic support, I place a strong focus on building confidence, resilience, and self-awareness—skills that are essential for success both in and beyond the classroom. Through empathy, encouragement, and personalised instruction, I help students develop not only their knowledge but also a positive sense of self and a belief in their ability to succeed.

Establishing strong, trusting relationships with both students and their families is central to my approach. I believe that understanding the whole child, their interests, strengths, challenges, and personality both in and out of the academic setting, is essential to providing effective, individualised support.

By taking the time to connect with families, I gain valuable insights into the child’s background, routines, and emotional needs. This collaborative relationship allows me to tailor lessons that are not only academically appropriate but also personally meaningful and engaging for the student.

When students feel seen, heard, and understood, they are more likely to thrive. Creating this connection fosters a sense of safety, motivation, and belonging—key elements in building both academic success and personal confidence.
