Additional Learning Needs
Teaching That Adapts to the Individual
Shannon has extensive experience supporting learners with Additional Learning Needs and understands that students may need very different approaches in order to feel secure and make progress.
Her patient teaching style allows lessons to be adjusted around different learning styles, strengths, barriers and levels of confidence.
Individual Pace
Lessons can move at a pace that feels
manageable for the learner.
Adapted Strategies
Teaching methods can change according to
how the student learns most effectively.
Confidence First
A supportive environment helps students
feel more comfortable attempting difficult work.
Personal Goals
Tuition remains focused on what that
individual learner is trying to achieve.
Learner Goals
Support for Different Starting Points
Students come to tuition for different reasons, so Shannon adapts the focus according to what they need most.
Catching Up
Rebuild gaps and strengthen areas where the learner has fallen behind.
Exam Preparation
Develop stronger subject knowledge, confidence and exam readiness.
Stretching Ability
Challenge stronger learners who want to achieve more and work towards higher outcomes.
Building Confidence
Create a supportive environment for learners who doubt their own ability.
Teaching Approach
Clear, Supportive and Personalised
Shannon combines strong subject knowledge with clear communication and teaching strategies adapted around the learner.
Clear Explanations
Break down difficult ideas so students can understand what they are doing and why.
Targeted Feedback
Give students specific guidance about where they are improving and what needs attention.
Growing Independence
Build the skills and confidence students need to become increasingly independent learners.
Making Progress
Helping Students Move Beyond What They Thought Possible
One of Shannon's key strengths is identifying barriers to learning and adjusting her approach so students have a stronger opportunity to succeed.
Throughout her teaching career, she has supported students who initially lacked confidence or were working below their target grades, including learners who later secured important passes in English examinations.
Her focus is not simply on short-term results, but on helping students develop the knowledge, confidence and learning strategies they can continue using independently.
A Strong Year of Results
Shannon describes last summer as the strongest set of results of her teaching career, with students making excellent progress and achieving outcomes that exceeded expectations.
