Meet Georgie
I’m a qualified teacher with more than 15 years of experience in teaching and one-to-one tuition. I bring a deep understanding of how children learn, along with a warm and patient approach, that helps students feel at ease and fully engage in their learning.
I grew up in New Zealand, which is where my career in education began. I started tutoring while I was still at school and ran a tutoring programme during my undergraduate degree in Politics. I then moved to the UK to train as a teacher through Teach First, teaching in a primary school, where I loved seeing children realise what they could do. Since then, I’ve completed an MA in Educational Neuroscience at UCL and a postgraduate diploma in Educational Leadership at Warwick, led the education programme at an education technology company, and worked as an education consultant.
What I love most is working with children directly: getting them excited about learning and helping them see how far they’ve come. That’s why I now tutor full-time in London. I’d love to hear about your child and how I can help.

Alongside tutoring, I have worked on global learning programmes. These have deepened my understanding of what a quality education looks like, including:
Manager at Better Purpose, where I designed learning and engagement programmes for settings in the UK, Africa and Abu Dhabi
Head of Education at BecomingX, where I built a personal development curriculum and 200+ lessons, from interviews with leaders such as Roger Federer and Tim Peake, used in over 300 schools
Education Consultant at The Varkey Foundation, where I worked on programme design for the Global Education & Skills Forum (Dubai)
Outside of tutoring
I'm a mum to a young daughter, so I know what it's like to want the best for your child. I love spending time with her, writing, going to pilates, attending the theatre and comedy nights, playing tennis, skiing, trying anything new, and spending time with friends and family.
