My husband and I have been in education for many years and tutor alongside our other work (see below).

Sarah

I trained as a primary teacher, graduating from the University of Warwick with a 2.1 BA (QTS) in English and Curriculum Studies.

A few years later, I  began working with teenagers through church.  I discovered how much I enjoyed working with this age group and when a maternity cover post for an English teacher came up I went for it and started work at Blue Coat C of E School, Coventry in January 2009.

Following on from this, I worked as an English teacher in  Year 7-11 at Heart of England School, Solihull for 7 years before moving to Leamington Spa. However, I had also tutored both primary and secondary pupils intermittently, and since Justin has given me a continuous link with primary education, I felt very much in touch with this age range as well.

I have also now developed a small network of tutors who I know very well on a personal level and am happy to recommend.  If you need a Maths tutor, A Level English tutor or I do not have a suitable space for you with English or French, I’m very happy to share their details with you.

Currently, Sarah is tutoring a range of pupils in primary Maths and English, preparation for the 11+ / entrance exams, KS3 and GCSE English and KS3 French as well as English to new learners of the language.   She has also worked as an exam marker with AQA for GCSE English Literature and has volunteered regularly in a local primary school.  Sarah also recently trained in Sports massage (with Swedish and deep tissue). She runs this alongside her tuition work. For more details visit: https://leamingtontherapy.co.uk

Justin

Justin has taught in a number of primary schools across the entire primary age range in Solihull, Coventry and Warwickshire.  He has an MA in Education and has also written for education magazines on occasion.  He eventually retrained as a psychotherapeutic counselor and is focussing on developing this alongside some continued tuition.  For more on his private practice visit https://jstone-therapy.com
