About Sue
I have been teaching for 28 years and currently work in a local primary school. I teach part time and devote the rest of my week delivering bespoke lessons to my tutoring clients preparing them for exam success for entry into local grammar and independent schools. In addition, I also work with many students to cover any gaps in learning such as maths, English Comprehension and writing.

I am equally at home tutoring reception children or preparing children for Key Stage 1 SATS, year 6 SATS and all local common entrance exams for independent schools in Manchester, Altrincham, Sale and Cheshire.
Although I love being in the classroom I particularly enjoy working on a 1-1 basis which allows me to build excellent relationships with both parents and pupils. I can offer help with exam technique and always carry out an initial assessment for each pupil to identify any gaps in learning. I use this as a basis for planning my sessions. I leave homework and provide detailed feedback after each lesson.
I have a working knowledge all the requirements of all local exam boards including the Trafford 11 plus, Manchester Grammar, Stockport Grammar as well as independent schools including Cheadle and Kings. In addition, I also deliver tutorials using virtual platforms and also work with students further afield and overseas.
Depending on my availability, I am willing to travel to clients or tutees can come to my house where I have a purpose built tutoring room. I provide all resources and aim to make my sessions as engaging as possible. For younger pupils I incorporate games and the use of interactive, educational software to meet my session objectives and to make our time as much fun as possible.
Lessons are typically for the duration of one hour, however some parents book longer or shorter sessions based on the needs of their child.
I hold a Bachelor of Arts degree in Education and a Post Graduate Degree in Teaching from Manchester Metropolitan University.
I hold a full DBS check and can provide references if required.

Sue is a fantastic tutor. She has helped my daughter achieve her potential and has helped her grow academically and personally. She is always enthusiastic and very professional. She has an ability to form a positive bond with her students. I highly recommend her to any person.
Sue tutored my daughter. She was kind and patient and built a great rapport with my 9 year old. She made learning fun, rather than just relying on worksheets. She was great at breaking down maths methods and building confidence.
I honestly cannot recommend Sue highly enough. She has been tutoring my two boys (now aged 6 and 7) in Maths and English since Year 1, and the progress they have made — both academically and in confidence — has been wonderful to see.
Sue is incredibly kind, patient and supportive. She has such a calm, reassuring manner, but at the same time she knows exactly how to bring out the best in children. My boys are energetic, boisterous and easily distracted at times, yet Sue has managed to channel that energy in such a positive way. She makes learning fun by incorporating games and interactive activities, so they don’t even feel like they’re “doing work”.
The biggest compliment I can give is that they genuinely love going to see her. In fact, they enjoy their sessions so much that they sometimes ask if they can go to her house at the weekend just to see her! That really says it all.
Sue has not only supported them academically but has also built their confidence and encouraged a real love of learning. I am so grateful to have found her and would wholeheartedly recommend her to any parent looking for a tutor who is both effective and genuinely cares about the children she teaches.Sue helped my daughter through her 11+ exams. She was brilliant with her, making the lessons fun and enjoyable. She came on leaps and bounds after spending an hour a week with Sue and her confidence grew that. I would highly recommend Sue for any additional tutoring needs, and so would my daughter!
I have used Sue for both my children over a period of 4.5 years and she has been instrumental in their year 7 entrance exam success. I have also recommended her to numerous family and friends who have seen the same results with their children. Sue is a fantastic teacher, she tailors her sessions to the needs of the child and works with each child differently according to what they need. I chose her for my children as she had a background of being a primary school teacher and had experience teaching children and understood the curriculum. She doesn't just 'prep" children but helps them build a solid foundation and then progresses them.
She is always helpful and friendly and my children loved being taught by her. At the end of the session she will take her time giving feedback which I found invaluable.
I would highly recommend her!Sue is an incredible tutor. She’s so patient and kind. I can’t recommend her enough! Thank you for everything you’ve done for my son.
Sue has provided excellent support to our son over the past couple of years. Her sessions are always fun, engaging and well structured, which has really helped keep him motivated and confident in his learning.
We’ve seen a clear improvement in his understanding, comprehension and overall confidence when approaching schoolwork. Sue has a great ability to adapt lessons to suit his needs while making learning enjoyable and positive.
We’re extremely happy with the progress he has made and would highly recommend Sue to any parent looking for a supportive and effective tutor.Sue is a great tutor in Maths and English. Really has a natural gift in relating to children and making the lessons fun and wanting the children to come back. My 3 kids always look forward to it and are excited to have their lesson.
Always explains on a level related to the child in the chair, and I cannot recommend enough. Thank you Sue.View more recommendations
