Mandy's experience

A career built around helping individual learners succeed

Mandy has over 15 years of experience within education and has worked across several different roles, giving her a strong understanding of both classroom teaching and individual support.

Her Primary experience includes working with Reception, Year 1, Year 2 and Year 5/6 pupils.

Early career

One-to-one learning support

Mandy began her educational career supporting a child with autism on a one-to-one basis. This experience developed her interest in individualised teaching and adapting learning around the needs of each student.

Primary education

Classroom experience

She later worked as a classroom teaching assistant and developed experience with pupils across several Primary stages, including Reception, Year 1, Year 2 and Year 5/6.

Professional development

BA Childhood Studies

Mandy completed a BA in Childhood Studies as she continued progressing within education and towards classroom teaching.

2021

Qualified as a teacher

Mandy achieved Qualified Teacher Status in 2021 and continued teaching in schools, covering a variety of subjects and supporting pupils with a range of learning needs.

Since 2024

Full-time tutoring

Mandy now tutors full time, delivering personalised lessons online and supporting students from Primary through to GCSE.

Individual learning needs

Patient, adaptable support for students who learn differently

Mandy has experience supporting children and young people with special educational needs, including learners with autism and ADHD.

She understands that students may need different explanations, lesson structures, pacing or levels of repetition to make learning accessible and manageable.

Her approach focuses on understanding the learner as an individual and creating lessons that help them feel comfortable, capable and increasingly independent.

Personalised support may include

  • Adjusting lesson pace and structure to the individual learner
  • Explaining concepts in different ways when something does not immediately make sense
  • Breaking larger tasks into smaller and more manageable stages
  • Building confidence through achievable and visible progress
  • Revisiting key knowledge when additional reinforcement is useful
