I have experience in teaching all abilities and differentiate resources to suit the needs of my student.

As Literacy Cooridnator for a school, I handle withdrawal classes for SEN pupils and have a vast experience in improving learning needs of these students.

As a current teacher, I have created orginal resources and tailor each lesson to best fit the pupil infront of me.
