Personal Description: I'm a friendly and experienced teacher who works at Stroud School, one of Hampshire's leading independent preparatory schools. When I'm not teaching there, I offer tutoring in Key Stage 1, 2 and 3 subjects, specialising in Maths and English for children in and around the Southampton area at remarkably competitive rates. Please see suzanne martin **Web Address Removed** (no spaces) for further information.

Tutoring Experience: I have 4 years' primary teaching experience including teaching years 2-8. I have also marked key stage 2 SATs for several years, including both English and Maths papers, giving me an excellent insight into the exam process and expectations.

Tutoring Approach: My philosophy is that I believe that every child has the right to an individual education tailored to their specific needs. Whilst teachers work incredibly hard to ensure pupils receive this in lessons, children often require the added support of one-to-one tutoring to practise techniques and consolidate knowledge. With an increasingly exam-based curriculum, children need practise at test papers and knowledge of exam techniques which schools often don't have the time to offer. Be it for short-term exam support or long-term help consolidating lesson work, I aim to provide a supportive, caring service that gives you peace of mind and your child added skills and confidence.

From J Dowling (4/5): Suzanne is very competent and able to easily identify areas children are struggling with and put in place strategies to help.

From Kim Dunn (5/5): Very impressed with the fact that you 'got' Katie straight away. I agree totally with your report on her and look forward to you working your 'magic' on her. Katie likes you and I know a lot of her problems in education will be if she gets on (or not) with her teacher. We will work with you to help her too (already trying with the multiplication) and look forward to giving her the confidence to be a strong 'middle level' during the coming academic year.
