About Katharine
I’m a calm, patient tutor with over a decade of experience supporting children through home education, Early Years, and SEND needs. I specialise in helping learners who need a gentle, structured approach — including those with dyslexia, ADHD, autism, anxiety, or low confidence.
I've spent 10+ years as an Ofsted-registered childminder and supporting home-educated children across the Primary curriculum. I also teach AQA GCSE Sociology with a 100% pass rate among my students!
My approach is warm, reassuring, and confidence‑focused. I meet each child exactly where they are, break tasks into manageable steps, and explain things clearly until they “click”. I never rush or overwhelm. My priority is always emotional safety and steady progress.
Parents describe me as patient, understanding, and able to help children who have struggled elsewhere finally feel capable and confident.

My teaching style includes:
• breaking tasks into manageable steps
• adapting to your child’s processing speed
• using reassurance and calm guidance
• creating a safe space for questions and mistakes
• building confidence before challenge
Who I help
• anxious or overwhelmed learners
• children with ASD traits or ADHD
• reluctant readers or writers
• home‑educated children
• children who have fallen behind at school
• learners who need patient, step‑by‑step explanations
First lesson
In our first lesson, I take time to get to know your child — what they enjoy, what they find difficult, and how they learn best. I gently assess their current level through conversation and simple tasks, then create a personalised plan. The goal of the first session is to help your child feel comfortable, understood, and confident.

Katharine has supported me with English and study skills for years. She helped me a lot throughout my GCSEs and has excellent knowledge in English Language and English Literature.
She helped me learn at my own pace and explains everything in ways I understand when I don't know something. Would recommend.Katharine has helped me with lots of schoolwork over the years. She makes things easier to understand and helps me feel more confident. She’s patient and explains things in a way that makes sense. I think she’d be a great tutor.
