About Helen
Helen is a vibrant, enthusiastic tutor who places emphasis on tutee’s confidence and relationship to education within her structured lessons. She works hard to enable students to think independently and creatively and most importantly, to enjoy their extra study time outsHelen tailors her lessons and teaching style to each individual tutee’s needs ensuring that they can make the most out of the lesson.
She has helped several students pass various exams including gaining places on the highly competitive English bilingual program at the Lysee International de Londres. Having been through the 11+ system herself (and gaining scholarships to several schools) Helen understands the pressure and stress of the application and the best ways to make it as enjoyable as possible for tutees and parents alike. She is also experienced teaching SEN, having several long term relationships with dyslexic, dyspraxic and autistic students.
Helen specialises in English (particularly English for students from international families), exam prep and general study support. She has been a visiting tutor at many educational establishments, including the Pippa Poppins nursery in West London and so has experience teaching across all ages. Her youngest students have been three years old and her oldest are currently in their fifties.
Outside of teaching, Helen is an enthusiastic cook, an avid theatre goer and loves going to galleries and taking advantage of the many cultural opportunities in South London and across the city.

I have expereince teaching across all ages and abilities- my youngest students have been five and my oldest are currently forty-five! I tailor every lesson to the individual student, working with them to ensure that they are learning and most importantly, enjoying the proccess. I often place a lot of emphasis on building confidence as this can unlock so much ability.
Recommendations

Helen has been teaching the 2 kids I look after as a nanny since September 2019. She has proved herself to be reliable, a good communicant and a great teacher. Both kids enjoy their lessons with her and their English has improved thanks to her. I highly recommend her.
Helen was an absolutely excellent creative writing tutor. She really helped instill confidence and her lessons were enjoable. She is very enthusiastic and cares deeply about progress and positive attitudes to learning. I would highly reccomend.
