SATs Specialist & Year 6 Coach | Boosting Confidence & Scores
I am a highly Qualified Primary Teacher and Tutor with QTS with over 20 years of experience. SATS can feel overwhelming for both students and parents, but they don't have to be. I am a dedicated tutor specialising in the Year 6 curriculum, with a focus on turning "I can't" into "I can." I'm also a mum of 3 young boys; my eldest having completed his SATs last year. I currently have availability in Burton on Trent or online.
With years of experience as a Key Stage 2 teacher (Year 5 and Year 6), I have first-hand knowledge of the National Curriculum and exactly what is required to succeed.
Having taught Year 5 and 6 for several years, I understand the progression of skills needed to reach the expected standard and beyond. I know where the common pitfalls are and how to explain complex concepts in "child-friendly" ways.
I have lead intensive SATs "booster" groups within schools, specifically designed to fast-track progress in Arithmetic, Reasoning, and Reading Comprehension. I am skilled at identifying specific learning gaps and closing them quickly.
As a private tutor, I have helped numerous students achieve exceptional results. My students consistently meet their targets, with several achieving Scaled Scores of 110–119, placing them in the top bracket of achievers nationally. I am happy to provide references.
Is your child feeling the pressure of Year 6? I’m here to help take the stress out of SATs revision. I believe that students learn best when they are engaged and confident, so I tailor every session to your child’s unique interests and learning style.
How I help: *Gap Filling: Identifying the specific areas in Maths or English where your child needs a little extra boost. *Low-Stress Practice: Using past papers in a way that builds familiarity rather than anxiety. *Growth Mindset: Building the resilience needed to tackle tricky multi-step problems.
Together, we'll build the solid foundation your child needs to transition smoothly into Secondary School.
Abi has been tutoring our daughter, Bethany for over a year. Abi is always patient, friendly and professional. From our first meeting Abi put us all at ease and took time to talk with us all. She especially talked with Bethany to see where she needed the most help. Bethany feels comfortable with Abi and puts her at ease. She is very professional and keeps us updated with Bethany's progress. We have seen an improvement in Bethany's confidence academically as well as personally when it comes to her school work. Her last school report was evidence of this. We would strongly recommend Abi to anyone considering extra tuition.

Thank you! Great SAT results.
Abigail has been perfect for our son and has surpassed our expectations. She is patient and calm, but also clear and direct. A great combination. She has high expectations and sets stretching goals. Weve seen our son grow in confidence and have really seen his writing develop and improve. When the lessons started he was just inside the expected range for his writing, but is now working to the top of the expected range and heading towards greater depth. Really pleased with Abigail's approach and results so far.
