Our Tutors
Anne Torres
I am primary school teacher and tutor. I have worked with children and adults in a range of educational settings and countries. As well as teaching the primary curriculum, I also have experience teaching English as an additional language and working as a Forest Schools leader. I really enjoy teaching at The Learning Rooms as it is an opportunity for children develop skills and build their self-confidence so they are happy and resilient learners.
Alex Paterson
I have been a tutor at The Learning Room for 7 years.
I am an English graduate and qualified teacher with over 25 years teaching experience, both in the UK and Italy.
I am passionate about encouraging the self-belief and expression of our students. It is a pleasure to work with young people and to see them grow in confidence.
Summaya Asif
I am a qualified Ks3 and Ks4 Mathematics teacher. I enjoy working with young people and helping them make sense of mathematical concepts and challenging misconceptions. I'm passionate about helping my students to enjoy problem solving given the right tools and understanding. I enjoy working with the young people at The Learning Room as it's a good place for them to solidify what they already know, as well as, be challenged further.
Tony Kerrison
I have recently joined the Learning Room as director of learning after teaching Maths and Economics, and running a successful sixth form over the last 24 years. As a Maths teacher and tutor, I believe it is important to inspire and empower students to develop a love of the subject by overcoming those barriers that can occasionally stand in their way, striking a healthy balance between nurture and challenge.
I am very excited to join the Learning Room team and look forward to working with the students and families in our community over the coming years.
