About

I'm Sarah, a current Year 4 primary school teacher with over 11 years of teaching experience, offering personalised tutoring in maths, English, phonics and reading for children aged 5–11 in west London.

My experience includes seven years teaching in UK primary schools and four years teaching English as an Additional Language (EAL) in South Korea. Throughout my career, I've worked with children of all abilities and learning needs. I've supported many pupils to overcome learning barriers, grow in confidence and make lasting progress.

I believe children learn best when they feel happy, supported and challenged. I tailor every lesson to each child's individual needs, using practical resources and interactive activities to keep learning engaging and effective. I strive to create a positive, encouraging environment where children feel confident to ask questions, learn from mistakes and celebrate their progress. My aim is not only to help children make strong academic progress, but also to nurture confident, independent learners who enjoy learning.

Reviews from First Tutors

5.0 7 from First Tutors

Imported from Sarah's First Tutors profile before the site went dark. Shown separately from Tutorperch reviews — today they don't feed this tutor's Tutorperch rating or ranking.

How we verify these

Each imported review went through admin review. The tutor proved ownership of the First Tutors profile via one of two paths:

  • Photo match. The First Tutors avatar matched the tutor's identity-verified Tutorperch photo, confirmed by admin.
  • Cryptographic email check. The tutor uploaded an original First Tutors email (.eml). We verified the DKIM signature against First Tutors' signing keys and cross-checked the embedded tutor ID against the claimed profile.

The review text is the original reviewer's own words, quoted as-is. We verified the tutor's ownership of the profile, not the truth of what each individual reviewer wrote.

    We have been taking lessons with Sarah for almost a year. She is a very kind and responsible teacher. She is always punctual and explains everything clearly. Her lessons are well-organised and she provides helpful feedback after each lesson. We have seen great improvement thanks to her support.

    Sarah has been giving weekly tutoring sessions to my 8-year-old daughter for the past 4 months. They work on both English and math, using a mix of materials, adapted to the level of the student. Sarah is patient and friendly and is creating a positive learning environment. I have seen huge progress in my daughter’s confidence form the start, which in turn made her more engaged with her learning at school and her homework. Being a primary school teacher herself, Sarah has a strong understanding of the school curriculum. I hence strongly recommend Sarah as a tutor for children who need a boost in confidence and who either have some gaps in knowledge or want to perfect their academic skills.

    Sarah is a very caring, educated, and professional teacher. My 10-year-old daughter absolutely loved the lessons conducted by her. Additionally, Sarah helped me with my pronunciation during our weekly online lessons. It was a great experience, and I highly recommend Sarah!

    Lovely lady, very friendly and calm in her teaching manor. She engages well with my son and finds a great way in getting him to focus and self correct any error by reminding him to check his work. Sarah is very accommodating to our needs and schedule and did a great job! Many thanks
