Tutor profile - Connie

Connie is a skilled and knowledgeable primary school teacher with experience of teaching Years 2 to 6 at an OFSTED Outstanding primary state school and a central London independent school. She is a friendly, flexible and patient educator, whose love of learning makes her an effective and engaging tutor. She believes that building a good rapport is the foundation for successful learning and progress, because she is then able to tailor her lessons for the student’s needs.

Connie loves maths, but has seen first-hand how hard it can be for some children to grasp mathematical concepts, which can then really knock their confidence. She endeavours to make maths as accessible and fun as possible to help them become more confident learners. She also enjoys supporting students in reading, writing, spelling and grammar. As well as English and maths, Connie loves to teach science, the humanities and art.

Connie studied at Wycombe Abbey and Westminster School, before going to Bristol University where she achieved a 2:1 in Geography. She gained her PGDE from UCL: Institute of Education as part of the prestigious Teach First programme. Connie loves drawing, cooking and tennis
