About Dr Stephen

I’m Dr Stephen, an experienced and highly qualified primary educator with a Doctorate in Education and many years of experience working with children, families and teachers in London.

Throughout my career, I have taught and supported children across the primary age range, developing a strong understanding of how children learn, where difficulties can arise and, importantly, how the right individual support can transform both progress and confidence.

Alongside my classroom experience, I have held senior leadership roles in education, giving me extensive experience of curriculum, assessment and effective teaching and learning. I bring that expertise to tutoring while keeping sessions friendly, encouraging and completely focused on the individual child.
I believe children learn best when they feel successful. I am patient, positive and ambitious for the pupils I work with, and I particularly enjoy helping children discover that something they previously found difficult is actually something they can do.

For parents, I aim to provide the reassurance of knowing that their child is being taught by an experienced professional who understands the primary curriculum and takes the time to understand their child as an individual.

About the lesson

I am an experienced primary teacher with a Doctorate in Education, offering personalised online Maths and English tuition for children in Years 3–6.

My approach is warm, encouraging and highly responsive to the individual child. I take time to understand where a pupil is currently working, identify any gaps or misconceptions, and then build lessons around exactly what will help them make progress. Just as importantly, I want children to feel confident, successful and positive about their learning.

Lessons are typically 45 minutes and combine clear teaching, carefully chosen practice, questioning and problem-solving. I adapt my approach throughout the lesson rather than relying on a one-size-fits-all programme, and I use regular retrieval and review so that new learning is remembered rather than simply completed.

I have extensive experience teaching and leading education in London primary schools and hold a Doctorate in Education, alongside my teaching qualifications. My experience means I understand both the primary curriculum and the wider learning journey children need to make in order to succeed.
I particularly enjoy working with children who need greater confidence, additional challenge, support in closing gaps, or focused preparation for the next stage of their learning.

My aim is simple: for every child to finish a lesson knowing more, feeling more confident and believing that they can succeed.

I tutor two clients at any given time, and currently have one spot remaining.

Stephen has worked with our family for five years and has been absolutely brilliant. He quickly understood how our child learns and has always known when to challenge them and when they need a bit more confidence and encouragement. His lessons are engaging, focused and genuinely tailored to what they need.

What has impressed my husband and I the most is the difference he has made to both confidence and attainment. Stephen is incredibly knowledgeable, patient and reliable, and he has a lovely way of explaining things that makes difficult concepts suddenly seem manageable. He also keeps us informed about progress and is always happy to offer advice.

After five years, we trust him completely and wouldn't hesitate to recommend him to another family looking for an exceptional primary tutor.

We were fortunate enough to have Stephen support our child with both Maths and LAMDA at different points in her education journey; and the difference has been remarkable. His approach combines deep subject knowledge with an understanding of how children learn best. His lessons are fun and I never once had to convince Heather to go to the lessons - she always wanted to attend.

What stands out most is Stephen’s ability to adapt to the learner in front of him, knowing when to encourage, when to push, and when to step back and let the child shine. His professionalism, care, and high expectations make him an outstanding tutor across both disciplines. We cannot recommend him highly enough and are lucky to still be working with him.

Stephen’s LAMDA tuition has been nothing short of outstanding for my child. From the very first lesson, he built a wonderful rapport and created an atmosphere where my child felt encouraged, supported, and inspired to do their best. Stephen’s expertise and passion for LAMDA really shine through in the way he teaches - his lessons are structured yet creative, and he knows exactly how to draw out confidence and skill.

We are so grateful for Stephen’s guidance and couldn’t recommend him highly enough to any parent considering LAMDA tuition.
