Welcome to Tutor Interventions in Leicester. I’m Rachael Dyer and I set up Tutor Interventions to provide bespoke online tutoring services for children, young people and adults. Students are referred by schools, word of mouth, tutoring agencies and through adverts or links to my website and Facebook page. I have also been working with the National Tutoring Programme by supporting students in English and Maths from Year 2 through to Year 12.

I am a SEND Support Specialist with over 20 years of experience teaching children with varying levels of Special Needs, including, but not limited to:

The ages I tutor range from 5 yrs – 17 yrs/ Adult.

I am used to implementing short-term interventions as directed by pupils:

Mission

Tutor Interventions came to fruition in April 2018, because I wanted to spend my time teaching students who needed support, as opposed to other increasing demands placed upon a teacher within a school environment. Building positive relationships with students is important! Making progress and moving towards mastery for the student's benefit, not for statistics or shareholders.

Each session is spent focusing on the student's needs and requirements, using a multi-sensory approach and a variety of strategies and resources. These can include the use of games, puzzles and the online learning spaces – Mathletics and Spellodrome.

  • Tutor Interventions provides tuition in a calm and stress free environment – the student's home.
  • Tutor Interventions provide a one to one student centred approach.
  • Tutor Interventions focuses on using a 'multi-sensory' approach to learning.
  • Tutor Interventions helps to encourage a positive mindset and is mindful of the student's health and wellbeing.
  • Tutor Interventions endeavours to make learning fun again.
  • Tutor Interventions allows a safe space for students to make mistakes without feeling embarrassed.
  • Tutor Interventions helps students to go from “I find this tricky” to “I can do it”.
