About Priya

I'm a qualified primary teacher, and I teach children aged 6 to 12 through games, stories and lots of praise. Many of my students are preparing for Cambridge Starters, Movers or Flyers.

Parents always know what we covered: I send a short note after each lesson with one activity to try at home, so learning carries on between lessons.

Why this works: For children's teachers, safeguarding and parent communication matter as much as qualifications. The DBS check and lesson notes answer parents' first questions.

Qualifications

  • PGCE Primary with QTSUniversity of Birmingham
  • CELTACambridge Assessment English
  • Enhanced DBS checkDisclosure and Barring Service

Why this works: Lists the full name and awarding body of each qualification. On a real profile, these show a Verified badge once we have checked your certificates — usually within one working day.

Why this works: Four focused specialisms beat ten vague ones. Learners filter the directory by subject and level, so precise choices put you in front of the right students.

What your first lesson looks like

  1. A play-based lesson so your child gets to know me first.
  2. A quick check of reading, phonics and vocabulary level.
  3. A short note for parents with my recommendations.

Why this works: A "get to know me" first lesson reassures parents of shy children.
