My experience with special educational needs
With twelve years of experience as an educator, I have worked extensively with pupils with a wide range of special educational needs, including ASD, ADHD, SEMH, dyslexia, and physical/sensory needs. Holding a Master of Education in Special Educational Needs, I have dedicated my career to supporting diverse learners. I have had three years as a SENCo, leading inclusive practices and fostering an environment where all students can thrive.
A bit about me
I am orginally from Australia and have lived in London for the past seven year. I enjoy travelling and exploring the UK and Europe in my spare time.
My teaching philosophy
I believe that the key to success in teaching and tutoring children lies in building their confidence to become independent learners. This is achieved through the use of scaffolds and hands-on resources that help them connect new knowledge to prior understanding while developing the skills necessary for meaningful and lasting success.

Elise is excellent as a tutor. She is patient and caring in helpful solidify knowledge and stretch her pupils. She makes lessons fun and creates and environment where the children enjoy their sessions with her, which is very conducive to their learning especially at a younger age.

Elise is a wonderful tutor and person. She tutored my daughter in an English and maths for over 2 years. She has so many excellent qualities including her intelligence, enthusiasm and patience, and my daughter really loved her. My daughter has ADHD and at times would struggle to stay on task in lessons. Elise tested a few different strategies that worked to scaffold her learning including an approach to breaks and eventually she did not need any breaks! Elise is reliable and communicative as well which really helps given how busy family life can be!
