About Clare
I am a friendly, competent, experienced maths and science teacher with almost 20 years experience of classroom and one-to-one teaching for Years 3-11.
I am an empathetic, supportive & creative teacher, willing to seek out and present in an appropriate style to suit the learner, & am highly skilled at engaging and motivating my pupils.
I strive to make my lessons enjoyable and challenging, although achievable, so as to foster that feeling of 'success'. I use lots of praise and like to turn perceived 'failures' into 'learning opportunities', which really helps, especially with maths.
I am particularly experienced in working with SEN children.
I have worked in a 'prep' school (so have experience of Common Entrance) as well as state schools up to GCSE in both Maths and Science.
Building rapport to establish a successful working relationship is a key strength of mine, which serves to encourage pupils to want to achieve their full potential.

Clare has been tutoring the Blue School for 3 years and has been a great asset to the provision we are able to give disadvantaged children. She has a calm manner and students enjoy her sessions. They have found them to be helpful and relevant and she adapts to the needs of the young person with ease. She is good at communicating with the school and the students and thinks ahead to potential problems and provides possible solutions. She is a great tutor and helps increase the confidence of the students she works with.
I have known Clare Colgan for about 4 years as a friend and as a Science and Maths tutor for my business. I have contracted tutoring work out to Clare since June 2018. It is ongoing. Her health record is very good.
As an experienced teacher, Clare is very well-trained and used to keeping sensitive information about pupils’ confidential. However, she fully understands that she needs to inform my Designated Safeguarding Lead if there are any Child Protection issues with the pupils she tutors.
Clare is able to tailor every lesson to the individual’s ability and needs in both Maths and Science up to Foundation Level at GCSE.
Clare is a very kind and friendly person who is very generous with her time. Her experience as a teacher, and latterly as a tutor, has helped her to understand and help many pupils with complex needs. She is able to react to different situations in a calm manner.
As a trained and experienced teacher, Clare is very used to adapting to children of all ages and abilities.
I have no hesitation in recommending her to work for your company.View more recommendations
