Emilia

As a highly committed primary school teacher with 11 years of experience in outstanding independent and state schools across West London, I have continually sought to broaden my teaching practice to support pupils of varying ages and abilities. I currently teach at a prestigious independent school in London, a role that has enhanced my flexibility and deepened my subject knowledge, and has allowed me to effectively support pupils in achieving and surpassing age-related expectations.
My previous position as a Middle Leader and Maths Lead enabled me to drive curriculum development, introduce innovative teaching strategies, and support staff professional growth.
In addition, I have extensive experience in teaching phonics, reading, grammar, creative writing, mathematics, and preparing pupils for Common Entrance exams, helping them gain admission to some of the UK’s most highly regarded independent schools.

Tutoring Experience

With a Master's degree in Comparative Education, I am a strong qualified primary school teacher, who achieved 'outstanding' grades in seven out eight of the Teachers' Standards. In addition, I have a proven track record of achieving above-average results in both outstanding independent and state schools across West London. Self-motivated and deeply passionate about education, I plan well-structured lessons designed to inspire students and foster independent learning. Committed to continuous professional growth, I actively take initiative to enhance both my pedagogy and subject knowledge, ensuring my teaching consistently supports high student attainment.

Tutoring Approach

As an educator, I place the concept of a ‘growth mindset’ at the heart of my teaching philosophy. I celebrate strong progress and achievement with my students while also encouraging them to view challenges as valuable opportunities for growth. I firmly believe that every learner, regardless of background or circumstance, has the potential to succeed. To support this, I strive to personalise learning, making content relevant, engaging, and designed to ignite curiosity and creativity. I also remain committed to professional development by staying informed on the latest educational research through academic journals and ongoing training courses.
