About Jenna

Hi, I’m Jenna, a qualified primary school teacher and passionate literacy educator. I don’t just teach English; I help children unlock the magic within it.

Imagine your child’s face lighting up as letters become thrilling adventures, or the quiet pride of finally cracking a tricky grammar rule. That’s the spark I live for. I’ve spent years walking alongside young learners, helping them navigate the sometimes-daunting, always-fascinating world of reading and writing—not as a lecturer, but as a fellow explorer.

My approach is grounded in the science of reading. I use evidence-based strategies like phonics and the Reading Rope to build strong foundations in word recognition and deep comprehension. Literacy should be alive, engaging, and empowering.

In my sessions:
- Phonics becomes a game of sound detectives
- Grammar reveals the elegant architecture of language
- Writing turns into a launchpad for imagination and voice

Whether your child is just starting out, needs a confidence boost, or is ready for extension and enrichment, I tailor each lesson to meet them where they are—and help them grow.

I’m not just a tutor. I’m a literacy champion, creating a safe, encouraging space where your child can take risks, ask questions, and discover the joy and power of language.

If you’re looking for someone who blends proven strategies with genuine care and creativity, I’d love to connect. Let’s spark something extraordinary together.

About the lesson

Is your child ready to embark on a journey of literacy success? As a qualified and passionate primary school teacher, I offer engaging and effective one-on-one English tutoring grounded in proven, evidence-based practices.

I understand that literacy development is a multifaceted process, and my tutoring is designed to nurture all essential skills. We'll delve into the science of reading, focusing on the crucial role of systematic and explicit phonics to build strong decoding skills. Through engaging activities, your child will learn to confidently connect sounds and letters, paving the way for fluent reading.

But reading is more than just decoding! We'll also explore the joy of comprehension, building vocabulary, and fostering a genuine love for stories. Drawing on models like the Scarborough Reading Rope, we'll weave together word recognition and language comprehension to create skilled and enthusiastic readers.

When it comes to writing, I provide structured support to help your child develop clear and effective communication skills. From mastering grammar and punctuation to exploring different text types and unleashing their creative voice, we'll work together to build confidence and competence in expressing their ideas.

Here's what my evidence-based approach offers:

Systematic Phonics Instruction: Building a strong foundation for decoding and spelling.

Explicit Reading Strategies: Developing comprehension, fluency, and vocabulary.

Writing Development: Focusing on grammar, structure, and creative expression.

Alignment with the Victorian Curriculum: Ensuring your child is supported in their school learning.

Personalised Learning: Tailored lessons to meet your child's unique needs and pace.

Engaging Activities: Making learning fun and interactive.

Confidence Building: Creating a supportive environment where every child can thrive.
