In 2022, I had the privilege of working with two amazing Year 6 teachers as part of my teaching assistant training their passion and understanding of how to get children to truly enjoy school and the learning process was the ultimate reason I decided I wanted to do that too. I qualified as a teacher in 2013 and for the next 10 years, I made it my mission to bring energy and excitement to every classroom I could. This was especially important to me when teaching Year 6 as the dreaded SATs loomed on the horizon. I did everything in my power to make sure that my classes were fully prepared for the tests but did not fear them and my role as a senior, specialist marker meant I could show them exactly how to answer questions, gain maximum marks but also relax! As head of English, I loved nothing more than bringing books alive and watching children get lost in new worlds. It’s safe to say that reading and writing are, and always have been, my ultimate passion.

I began tutoring in 2019 when I started working with grammar and independent schools in London to conduct research for the 11+ tests. After 4 years of developing and honing my understanding of these schools and their testing procedures, Primary Path Education was born. Since then, I have worked with over 200 students from all around the world to achieve all sorts of goals. As well as supporting children in passing the 11+ and the SATs, I have: helped children from Ukraine learn English from scratch; written and implemented home learning plans for children with SEND, coached businessmen from Japan to deliver speeches to French royalty; written curriculums for several language-learning apps and, most importantly, allowed hundreds of children to catch up in areas they have struggled with and start to enjoy school again.

Outside of my office, I am a mother to a beautiful little girl who has changed my life entirely since her arrival; I am lucky enough to live in the middle of the forest with her, my husky Mishka, my can Henry and my wonderful fiancé. I am also an avid adventurer, fitness fanatic and an unlikely metal and rock lover.

It is my privilege to do what I do and I am always willing to provide help and advice should you need it.
