About Katy

Hello! My name is Katy, and I am a passionate and dedicated specialist tutor and executive function coach, with over a decade of experience in both state and independent educational sectors in the UK. 

 

Throughout my career, I have had the privilege of working with a range of children and their families, catering to a diverse array of additional needs. First, as a primary school class teacher, then as a specialist teacher, and now as an ADHD and Executive Function Coach. This journey has reinforced my belief in the transformative power of personalised, one-on-one support. As a result, I decided to focus my efforts on offering private services to clients and their families, to generate meaningful and lasting impact.

 

A guiding principle throughout my career has been to support and embrace neurodiversity, driving me towards promoting equality and inclusion across all phases of life. My experiences as a specialist teacher and the training I have received as a coach have expanded my capacity to provide essential support to individuals of all ages; helping them manage their personal responsibilities and navigate their environments more effectively.

 

My qualifications reflect a broad foundation in education, and specific training in supporting individuals with diverse learning needs. My approach is always tailored, empathetic, and rooted in the latest educational research, ensuring that the strategies and support I provide are not only effective but also empowering for the individuals and families I work with.
