Learning supportthat starts withyour child.

Maths and English tuition for children aged 6 to 16. A personal approach, a little patience, and space to learn in their own way.

One-to-one, in Newmillerdam, Wakefield.

An approach built around them

A little more understanding. A lot more room to grow.

Some children need time to find their confidence. Others need a different explanation, a practical activity, or a new challenge. Working one-to-one means I can notice what helps, and adapt as we go.

Where I can help

Making learning feel manageable.

We start with what your child knows, find what’s getting in the way, and take the next step together.

Maths

From getting comfortable with numbers to working through fractions, algebra and those questions that never quite seem to make sense.

Understanding, practice and problem-solving

English

Support with reading, spelling, grammar and writing, helping children put their thoughts into words and approach their work with confidence.

Reading, writing and finding their voice

Tricky homework in another subject? Let me know what your child is working on.

Hello, I’m Cheryl

There’s more than one way to learn.

Home educating my own children for many years taught me just how much an individual approach matters. What works beautifully for one child can feel completely different for another.

I bring that understanding to every lesson, getting to know your child’s strengths, interests and learning style before deciding how best to help.

Getting started

A first lesson. A chance to get to know each other.

We usually begin with a one-hour session at my home in Newmillerdam. It’s a gentle introduction: a chance to understand how your child learns and for them to see how they feel about working with me.

Afterwards, take your time to chat at home. If you’d like to continue, we’ll arrange lessons together.

What to expect at the first session

Learning at home

Support for parents, as well as learners.

Home education has been a big part of my family’s life. I bring that experience to conversations with parents who want to find an approach that suits their own child.
