Hello, I’m Nadya, an experienced and emotionally attuned educator, tutor, and governess with over 15 years of international experience supporting children, young people and adults across a wide range of ages, abilities, and backgrounds.
My journey in education has taken me across the UK, Europe, North Africa, the Middle East and the Gulf. I hold CELTA and DELTA qualifications and have worked extensively within the British Council network, delivering academic English, literacy, and exam preparation to children, teens, and adults alike. My specialism lies in English language and literature, early years development, and nurturing confidence through personalised, intuitive learning.
As a tutor, I’m calm, patient, creative, and emotionally intelligent. I believe in meeting each learner exactly where they are, academically, emotionally, and energetically, and helping them build from that place with structure, compassion, and encouragement. I work with both children and adults, offering 1:1 and small group sessions online or in person. My lessons are tailored, responsive, and never one-size-fits-all.
Many families seek me out not only for academic support, but also for help with:
• Overcoming learning anxiety or school reluctance
• Rebuilding confidence after missed schooling
• Executive functioning, organisation, and learning habits
• Emotional literacy and self-expression
• Integration of mindfulness and breathwork into learning for calm focus and self-regulation
I have a strong background in SEN support, particularly with children navigating dyspraxia, dyslexia, sensory sensitivities, and anxiety-related barriers to learning. I use tools such as visual schedules, movement-based breaks, hands-on learning, and calming routines to help learners feel safe, supported, and empowered.
Multilingual myself, I tutor confidently in English and support French and German learners (intermediate level). I also encourage bilingual development and have worked with many multilingual families. I’m currently based in Morocco.
Alongside my professional experience, I’m also a mother to a vibrant, trilingual five-year-curious girl who is educated using a blend of Montessori, nature-based, and creative approaches. She is living proof of my educational philosophy in action, gentle structure, respect, and joy.
Whether you’re looking for academic support, gentle guidance through a challenging transition, or simply a calm and capable tutor to walk alongside your child with care and creativity, I would love to speak with you.
