About Georgina
I am a fun, kind, patient and enthusiastic Teacher. I have always worked with Children and young people, working with them to make life easier or more accessible for them. Teaching became my natural career path and it is what I love doing most! I hold high expectations of my students and myself, always striving for excellence. While fun is always encouraged and appreciated, professionalism and care is paramount.

My Psychology degree and 9 years of experience working with children with Neuro-divergence and additional educational needs prior to teaching have significantly shaped my approach to teaching. I prioritise relationship building and trust with students and their caregivers. I am patient, kind, and incredibly encouraging but have high expectations. I work with students for them to also gain high expectations in themselves. This may happen in the first few sessions or may take a longer period of time depending on the student. I help students gain high expectations for themselves by initially giving tasks where they are guaranteed success, then celebrating and reflecting on this success and how they were able to use the skills taught and their effort to complete the task. This builds a person's confidence and significantly increases the likelihood of attempting more difficult tasks. This is heavily proven by research (and seen in my classroom daily) known as the “theory of self-efficacy” and the “theory of planned behaviour”. If a person does not believe a task is within their capability, they are incredibly unlikely to even attempt it (No matter how much we believe they can do it). It is my job to SHOW students they can do it by designing tasks and lessons in a way that they feel challenged finish with pride in their achievements. When teaching new skills I will show them first, then we will complete a task together, then they will apply the skills independently. I will be constantly assessing as they work independently and provide support where necessary. The ultimate goal is to phase back my support until they are using the taught skills correctly, consistently, confidently and independently. Lessons will vary depending on students' needs. If caregivers want to spend a percentage of the lesson to discuss, that will be agreed upon. If there are specific targets you want me to cover then we can dedicate time for you to tell me these expectations. If you would prefer me to assess your student and gauge where the gaps are and plan accordingly, that is also ok. I would suggest an initial session to meet, and discuss goals. Some classes you may benefit from: -SATs Prep -Phonics -Reading (comprehension, vocabulary, inferencing, predictions, explaining, retrieval, sequencing, summarising, making links, author's intent) -Spelling -Grammar (or Spelling and grammar combined) -Maths -Maths (arithmetic) -Maths (Reasoning and Problem solving) -Target specific - has your teacher said there are targets you need to work on in various subjects? -Science -History -Geography -Psychology (GCSE, A Level) Is your child in secondary school but needs support in the foundation subjects such as reading, writing or maths? Reading and writing is an essential skills in secondary school for every subject. I can support your child to close the gap so they can access all subjects with their peers. Having worked in secondary schools before, I have seen how much students are required to read and write in all lessons, but there will not be opportunities to learn these fundamental skills at school. I welcome students of all ages (including adults) from all backgrounds and of all abilities. I look forward to meeting you soon and celebrating the amazing progress ahead!

Perfect! Georgina is an excellent teacher and is really engaging with my son. He looks forward to his lessons and the content is tailored to his development. Her experience with teaching similar age children and ability to flex and adapt her approach means that her style is very effective. We are very happy to have found Georgina.
- It has been wonderful meeting Sana and her family. She is very friendly and a great communicator. Her child is a pleasure to tutor and it is a great fit. It is great to see her so flexible as to what lessons will look like for her child and how she is happy for me to adapt as I go depending on her child's focus and interest on the day. Upon assessing gaps it is now easy for me to be prepared with a variety of tasks so I can also be flexible to meet her child's needs.Georgina's response :

The hour rate includes 10 minutes which I will take as Planning/ Preparation time and factor this into travel too if local. Lessons are typically 45 minutes so I leave 5 minutes for parent communication.
