About Nicole
I am a qualified primary teacher with a Master's in Education and over eight years of experience supporting children with reading, spelling, and literacy confidence. I have also worked with learners who were coming from alternative education systems such as Steiner or Montessori, including children who were not yet reading at school age. I believe that confidence comes before progress, and I specialize in helping children who feel behind or anxious about reading. My approach is calm, encouraging, and pressure-free, with a strong focus on making literacy feel achievable and positive.

My literacy lessons are designed to support children who need a gentle, patient approach to reading, spelling and written English. I begin each session with small, achievable tasks to build confidence and reduce any pressure or anxiety around reading.
A typical lesson includes:
A warm, relaxed start to help the learner settle and feel safe
Guided reading or phonics-based practice, depending on their level
Positive reinforcement and gentle correction to encourage progress without stress
Fun literacy activities using stories, visuals or real-life words to make learning feel meaningful and engaging
I have worked with children who were struggling to read or coming from alternative educational backgrounds, and I believe strongly in celebrating every small step. My goal is always to make reading feel encouraging, manageable and enjoyable, rather than something to worry about.
These lessons are ideal for:
Children who need extra literacy support outside school
Learners who feel anxious or behind in reading or spelling
Families looking for a kind, patient tutor who understands confidence barriers
Children transitioning from Montessori, Steiner or homeschooling to mainstream schooling
With Nicole, progress is made gently, with patience, encouragement and a focus on confidence first.
