Abigail W.

I am a highly Qualified Primary Teacher and Tutor with QTS with over 20 years of experience. SATS can feel overwhelming for both students and parents, but they don't have to be. I am a dedicated tutor specialising in the Year 6 curriculum, with a focus on turning "I can't" into "I can." I'm also a mum of 3 young boys; my eldest having completed his SATs last year. I currently have availability in Burton on Trent or online.

With years of experience as a Key Stage 2 teacher (Year 5 and Year 6), I have first-hand knowledge of the National Curriculum and exactly what is required to succeed.

Having taught Year 5 and 6 for several years, I understand the progression of skills needed to reach the expected standard and beyond. I know where the common pitfalls are and how to explain complex concepts in "child-friendly" ways.

I have lead intensive SATs "booster" groups within schools, specifically designed to fast-track progress in Arithmetic, Reasoning, and Reading Comprehension. I am skilled at identifying specific learning gaps and closing them quickly.

As a private tutor, I have helped numerous students achieve exceptional results. My students consistently meet their targets, with several achieving Scaled Scores of 110–119, placing them in the top bracket of achievers nationally. I am happy to provide references.

Is your child feeling the pressure of Year 6? I’m here to help take the stress out of SATs revision. I believe that students learn best when they are engaged and confident, so I tailor every session to your child’s unique interests and learning style.

How I help:

*Gap Filling: Identifying the specific areas in Maths or English where your child needs a little extra boost.

*Low-Stress Practice: Using past papers in a way that builds familiarity rather than anxiety.

*Growth Mindset: Building the resilience needed to tackle tricky multi-step problems.

Together, we'll build the solid foundation your child needs to transition smoothly into Secondary School.
