About Us

Founder | SEN Teacher/Tutor | Learning Support Specialist | International Tutor

My Approach

I specialize in assisting learners with educational differences, advancing their development through varied intervention programs, including the Neurodevelopmental Approach. I strive to make meaningful changes for children and their parents.

I offer in-person or online lessons. The best way to address learning challenges is to take a course of customized sessions from a qualified and experienced educational specialist. Every learner's needs are unique and many aspects of their environment need to be taken into consideration when designing an individualised program.

As a rule, each program is set up following consultations with parents and where necessary with teachers, and is based on observations, screening and identified goals for improvement. Student progress is evaluated continuously.

How I Work

About Tuition

About Tuition

1:1 Teaching

Students are taught one-on-one for personalized attention and tailored support.

Hour-Long Sessions

Each session lasts an hour, providing focused and effective learning time.

Tailored Programs

Each learner has a program uniquely designed for their specific needs and goals.

Flexible Location

Programmes can be set up at your home or online, wherever works best for you.

In School Support

All students are unique and sometimes it can be difficult to accommodate their individual learning needs in a mainstream classroom, particularly when specialist training is required for such support. Luckily, many schools welcome specialist teachers for tailored in-school tuition or in-class support to address areas of need.

If you are a school looking for a specialist teacher, please get in touch. I have worked with many Portuguese international schools including TASIS Portugal, Aprendizes, IPS British School, and Butterflies, providing specialized support to students with diverse learning needs.

I am also an affiliate of Cambrilearn, supporting families with quality online education solutions.
