I started my career as a Primary School Teacher, training at Canterbury Christ Church University, and worked for four years in mainstream schools in the UK. During my training, I did a placement at a specialist dyslexia centre in my village, and this was when I discovered that supporting learners in this area was what I really wanted to do. I trained as a Specialst Teacher and Assessor with Dyslexia Action and once my training was complete, I began working as a private tutor, also collaborating with other learning centres to help support their learners. I have been tutoring both online and face-to-face since 2015, supporting learners from Year 3 (Grade 2) to Year 13 (Grade 12) with literacy, maths and study skills.
I have lived in Berlin since 2015 and now have a three-year-old daughter, who keeps me very busy during the day! In my free time, I enjoy reading, dancing and going to the theatre.
