Expert, one-to-one reading support from an educator with over 30 years of classroom experience — tailored to your child, at their pace.
Building confident, accurate readers from the ground up
Understanding and enjoying texts — not just sounding out words
Turning reluctant readers into enthusiastic ones
I'm a specialist reading educator with over 30 years of experience in UK primary schools. Throughout my career I've led reading across many schools — working with children, teachers, and families to build strong foundations in literacy.
I started ReadingSparks to offer expert, personal tuition to children aged 5 to 8 — the golden years for reading development. Whether your child needs a boost with phonics, is struggling with comprehension, or just needs someone to reignite a love of books, I'm here to help.
No pressure, no jargon — just a friendly conversation to see how I can support your child.
We'll have a no-obligation call to talk about your child, any concerns you have, and whether ReadingSparks is the right fit.
I gently assess your child's current reading level, strengths, and areas for development — making it fun, not stressful.
We begin weekly sessions built around your child's needs, with books and activities they'll genuinely enjoy.
All sessions are one-to-one, 45–60 minutes, and designed around your child's specific needs and learning style.
For children just starting their reading journey, building solid foundations with phonics and early decoding.
For children who can decode but need support reading with confidence, expression, and understanding.
Specialist support for children who struggle to engage with reading — using their interests to find a way in.
Targeted help for children who are behind their year group expectations and need to catch up quickly.
