About Karen
- What kind of experience do you have?
I worked in one of the leading specialist dyslexic schools in Surrey for 5 years, teaching one to one and small groups. I now run my own full time tutoring business, teaching children and young people either during the day at school or at their home if they are home educated and from my own home in the evening.
- Do you have an up-to-date DBS (Disclosure & Barring Service, formerly CRB) Certificate?
I have a current DBS certificate which is on the update system.
- Where and with whom did you train?
I undertook my degree with the Open University and my dyslexia training with Dyslexia Matters. I also hold a certificate in the Phono-Graphix reading programme.
- Do you belong to any professional organisations?
I am member of Patoss.
- Tell me about some of your current students.
Most of my students are falling behind their peers and as a result of this come to me with little of no confidence in their ability. After meeting them and starting to work together a smile appears back on their face and learning becomes fun again.
