GET IN TOUCHInspiring Academic Growth in a Supportive, Stress-Free Environment.
Tutoring is a proven effective method of improving academic performance and self-esteem at school. At JD Private Tuition, I provide tutoring for Primary and KS3 students. I also provide tutoring for students in KS4 who are working below age related expectations. The tutoring process is simple: I look at where the child is working at academically; where they need to get to and how we can get them there. Tutoring is adapted to meet the needs and learning style of your child in a pressure-free environment.
Is this your child?
Every student learns differently. You might notice your child is facing one of these common school hurdles:
Losing motivation because they aren’t being stretched or challenged enough in class.
Working below age-related expectations and not keeping up with their peers in English and/or maths.
Quietly slipping under the radar in large classrooms and not reaching their full potential.
Underperforming in tests, meaning their marks don’t reflect their true ability.
Overwhelmed with homework causing stress and anxiety.
If any of these sound familiar, or you would like general support, JD Private Tuition can help!

Teaching is in my DNA. Growing up in a family of educators, I inherited a lifelong passion for helping children succeed.
As a fully qualified teacher (QTS) and SEND specialist with over 9 years of experience, my career has taken me across the UK and international schools in Istanbul, Baku, Madrid, and Seville. This global background allows me to approach learning from unique angles, incorporating highly effective, proven strategies like the Singapore Math method.
I know every child is unique. I am dedicated to creating a safe, supportive space where primary and lower secondary students - whether stretching their high abilities or catching up on core skills - can build lasting confidence. Together, we tailor a path that guarantees your child thrives and excels.

Nothing at all. I supply all the necessary learning resources, custom worksheets, and specialized teaching materials tailored to your child’s goals. All your child needs to bring is a positive attitude and a comfortable space at home to learn.
You can book weekly or book a block of lessons at a reduced fee. You can decide to stop or restart tutoring whenever you want - I recognise that people are busy and need flexibility.
No. Things happen and if something crops up and you need to cancel then we can rebook.
Yes, absolutely. Your child’s safety and peace of mind are my top priorities. I hold a fully enhanced, online-up-to-date DBS check (Disclosure and Barring Service) and I am a fully qualified teacher (QTS), which I am always happy to verify before our first session.
Yes, completely. My service is designed to adapt to your family’s busy schedule. If your child is slightly under the weather, or if a busy week makes a home visit tricky, we can seamlessly switch that week's lesson to an interactive online session so they never miss out on their progress.
Sessions can be cancelled or rescheduled with at least 24 hours’ notice. Sessions cancelled with less than 24 hours’ notice, or missed without notice, are charged in full. If JD Private Tuition needs to cancel a session, it will be rescheduled or refunded.
