About Divya

Hi! I am an English and literacy educator with over 5+ years of experience working with children in diverse school settings. I hold a Bachelor's degree in English Language and Literature from the University of Madras, Post Graduate Certificate in Education (PgCE) from The British University in Dubai and, I am a certified Jolly Phonics teacher and trainer. I am also trained and hold certifications in various literacy teaching approaches and Storytelling strategies.

I specialize in helping primary children improve reading fluency, phonics, comprehension and reading confidence using structured, evidence-based literacy instruction. In many school settings that focus primarily on curriculum coverage, the deeper skills of reading, understanding, thinking critically, and enjoying literature are often overlooked. Through the right guidance and exposure, I aim to address these gaps and help children become confident, engaged readers and writers.

I have extensive experience working with children across different age groups using engaging, child-centered teaching practices. I also have a strong track record of improving reading and writing outcomes, as well as mentoring educators in literacy instruction.

I place strong emphasis on student reflection and feedback to encourage accountability and ownership of learning and value strong home–school partnerships in supporting student growth and progress.

I have developed a specialized Reading and Writing Program that focuses on the foundations of literacy — phonics, decoding, fluency, vocabulary, comprehension, and written expression. Rather than simply helping children complete schoolwork, I aim to help them become stronger readers, writers, and thinkers. This program is aligned to the international Cambridge and IB frameworks in English language.

Many children are able to “read” words but struggle to truly understand, express, analyze, or enjoy what they read. These gaps can affect learning across all subjects. My program is designed to identify these areas carefully and support each child through personalized, research-informed instruction. I also support struggling or hesitant readers become fluent and confident.

Before beginning lessons, I conduct a developmental reading assessment to understand the learner’s reading profile, including their strengths, developmental areas, and reading habits. Based on this, lessons are tailored to the learner’s needs and paced accordingly.

The sessions are interactive and meaningful, incorporating a variety of tools, digital learning platforms, engaging books, and writing development activities.

I work best with:
-Children who struggle with reading confidence.
-Learners who read mechanically without deeper understanding.
-Learners who need support with sentence formation and writing development.
-Learners who want to strengthen creative writing expression.
-Students who need stronger comprehension and analytical thinking skills for IGCSE and IBDP pathways.
-Parents looking for long-term literacy development rather than homework help alone.

Sessions are conducted online in a fun, supportive and learner-centered environment.

Trial class includes a free reading assessment and a parent consultation call to discuss your child’s current reading level, habits, goals and learning needs.
