Outstanding international English for children age 6-14. With a B.Ed (Hons) and QTS from the prestigious University of Cambridge, and as a former Head of English and Head of Key Stage 2, I bring 20 years of experience to my tuition practice. I am experienced at exam preparation and offer tuition for entrance exams, MAP testing. British National Curriculum, IB PYP.

After earning my B.Ed (Hons) in Education and Music from ​the University of Cambridge in 2003, I began my teaching ​career at a primary school in Ely, Cambridgeshire.

From 2005 to 2013, I taught at a large primary school in ​Cambridge, spending six years with Year 6 students ​before moving on to teach Years 3 and 4. During this ​period, I held positions as Head of Key Stage and Head of ​English, and was a valued member of the Senior ​Leadership Team. My teaching consistently received an ​'outstanding' rating under the OFSTED framework.

In 2013, I relocated to New Zealand, where I continued my ​successful teaching career at a prestigious independent ​school, a large primary school, and a junior high school.

After the birth of my daughter in 2017, we returned to the ​UK, where I resumed my career in a pastoral role at a ​school in Wiltshire. I am now director of and tutor at Home Star Tuition.

Having lived in New Zealand for many years, I have a proven track record of working with international students. My student-centered approach focuses on building confidence, enhancing skills, and achieving academic goals.

My teaching is online from my home near Bath in the UK.

'Learning is not a spectator sport'. This philosophy underpins my teaching style: lessons are packed with learning, my expectations are high, my students achieve and develop in confidence.
