My name is Zoe and I am a fully qualified and registered Primary Teacher working in Glasgow. Before moving into education, I completed my undergraduate degree in German and Spanish at the University of St Andrews (2020) and speak both languages to an advanced level (C1 of CEFR). I am currently working part-time as a Primary Teacher and tutor while I also undertake a Master's in Psychology at the University of Glasgow.

I have taught from Primary 2 - 7 and am also qualified to teach pupils until the end of S3. I have a background in working with primary school pupils with additional support needs, including ASD, AD(H)D, dyslexia, dyspraxia and dyscalculia. As such, I am confident meeting the needs of all learners to ensure I provide the most appropriate support.

I believe in a child-centred education and always adapt my teaching to the needs, abilities and personalities of pupils. Quality learning only takes place when positive relationships are in place, so I take great pride in developing trusting and respectful bonds with pupils. I use a range of strategies to keep learning engaging and challenging, including games, online tools and quizzes. I am happy to engage with and offer advice to parents and carers during sessions. I have evening and weekend availability - please feel free to get in touch to discuss this.
