Maths and English UK Curriculum with specialised support for overcoming barriers to learning

Hello, I’m Matt, I have 22 years’ experience teaching in a range of educational settings in the UK, including roles as Deputy Head Teacher in both mainstream and special schools. I am also an experienced Special Needs Coordinator. I have a background in creative learning approaches, as well as proven experience working with pupils with ASD, ADHD, dyslexia and SEMH, as well as speech and language difficulties. I would like to offer my services in helping your child reach their full potential. I love music (both listening and making!) and share a passion for animals and nature with my six year old son. I bring my passions into my teaching which I find kids respond really well to. Thank you all. Let me know if I can help.

About Me

Hi, I'm Matt, I have recently arrived in Annecy from the UK with my wife, my six year old son and our very old cat! I am passionate about teaching and I like to make my lessons as personal and creative as possible. I love to see children excited by their learning. I aim to use all of my 22 years' experience to build relationships quickly. I find the use of humour, patience and care the most effective means of doing this. I see it as critical that children be active participants and have some autonomy in their own learning. I understand that every child has their own starting point and their own way of engaging in any learning task. I find ways of breaking down tasks into small and manageable steps, using carefully chosen language, visuals and manipulatives. This allows learners to achieve success quickly, building their confidence, before I look to challenge them.

I look to bring the children's interests, as well as my own into my lessons. My passions include making music on my computer and listening to music. I'm always on the search for something new. I share a love of animals with my son and we are always finding a new way of feeding our passion, whether it be a new toy or a new book. I love watching football (my favourite teams are Arsenal and Southend United - my home town team). Part of my family are from the Highlands of Scotland and I love to spend time exploring the hills and beaches up there. I hope to fall in love with Annecy in the same way.

Darvin
I teach English, Greek and Spanish classes for children and teenagers.
Teacher with more than ten years of experience, I have lived, studied and worked in Greece, Spain and England. My experience with both languages has given me the ability to teach other people in a dynamic and professional way. I offer to learn about your goals, your level of English, Greek or Spanish and thus design personalized and direct classes so that we can achieve your goals together. My greatest satisfaction is communicating with my students in the languages I have already taught them. I teach the classes online because I also work for the cruise line. I greatly respect my students and their goals, but I always make it clear that mutual respect, mutual schedules, and mutual commitment are the only three points that I try to have in common with my students, since those points reflect that we are going to meet our goals. I love to bring up topics about almost everything, doing pronunciation exercises. I truly believe that if we use what we do throughout the day to create an increasingly extensive vocabulary and we are persistent, I think that in a short time we can achieve very good results. I am a specialist in breaking the ice and creating the best closeness or complicity to get the most out of my dear students, I assure you that learning English, Greek and Spanish will be fun and one of the best experiences you will have!!!
