Year 6 SATs

My Primary Focus

  • Build a great foundation of mental maths which is crucial.

  • Following the National Curriculum to ensure every child is at the expected level or higher for Year 6 and knows everything required for the SATs Paper.

  • Practice SATs Past Papers so that your child is confident and comfortable with the type of questions asked and format of the paper.

  • Keep the lessons creative and fun as I want to make sure all children genuinely find the lessons enjoyable.

Experience in this area

  • In the past 5 years, I have taught a large number of children at Primary School level (many sitting Year 6 SATs) in Oxford, London and Online ; seeing many differences in terms of ability, confidence, interests and needs.

  • Some children have been behind in class and I helped them catch up and develop more confidence with Maths.

  • Some children have just had a few weak areas, e.g mental maths, times tables etc. After we worked on those topics they rose to the top of their class.

  • Some children have been way ahead of their year group and aren't being pushed in class. I teach these children much harder Maths, e.g I have a Year 4 student who has learnt all of Year 5-8 Maths.

Different Approaches for those ...

Struggling with Maths

  • My main aim is to catch up with the expected level for Year 6 and build a solid foundation of mental maths to score well in the SATs Paper.

  • If low confidence in Maths and disliking Maths are issues too, then I would really like to work on those as well. Generally by keeping the learning process fun and giving a lot of positive feedback and encouragement. 

With a few weak topics

  • My main aim is to clear up any weak areas of Maths so that the student becomes more confident and comfortable with their SATs Papers and rise to the top of their class.

  • If low confidence in Maths and disliking Maths are issues too, then I would really like to work on those as well. Generally by keeping the learning process fun and giving a lot of positive feedback and encouragement. 

Excelling in Maths

  • My main aim is to keep pushing the child's interest and understanding in Maths and improving problem solving skills.

  • Use the SATs Past Papers to practice for the real thing.

  • I would also be able to help with early exam taking and School Entrance tests.
