Hi, I'm Sophia.

I'm training in primary education at St John's College, Durham, and I've spent several years working closely with children. You can see my experience here.

There is no one-size-fits-all approach to learning. Every child is unique, bringing their own strengths, interests, challenges and ways of understanding the world. Whatever service I'm providing, taking the time to understand your child properly will always be a priority for me. Building that understanding is essential to helping a child make meaningful progress — children learn best when they feel safe, understood and gently stretched.

Above all, I believe the right encouragement at the right moment can shape the whole course of a child's education, and I never give up on the ones who've been told they're behind.

While I build my practice I keep my rates gentle, and they rise only a little with every five students I take on. Whenever you choose to begin, the rate you start at is the rate you keep for as long as we work together.
