Teachers Your Child Will Learn With

Our teachers cover both stages — Foundation (L4–L6) and Breakthrough (L7–L10).

Amanda
M.Ed. in Literacy Education
Advanced Essay Writing Argument & Evidence Grammar & Style

"The best essays start with clear thinking — my job is to help students get there."

Experience

10+ years·U.S. private-school homeroom teacher

Teaching Approach

Structured and rigorous, with an uncanny eye for what each writer needs — Amanda spots the gaps others miss and tailors a plan to every student. Complex writing (thesis, evidence, reasoning, revision) becomes clear steps to master, not a mystery.

Teaching Philosophy

How Our Teachers Teach

Three principles that shape every FutureKey School class.

Read With Them, Not At Them

Teachers guide discussion instead of lecturing. Students are asked, heard, and pushed to think one step deeper.

Meet Every Student Where They Are

Pacing and questions adjust to each child's reading level, confidence, and learning goals — not a fixed script.

Turn Feedback Into Growth

Written feedback on every draft is specific and actionable — students know exactly what to fix and what to try next.

Your Child's Team

Two Roles Behind Every Class

Live class time is short. What happens around class is where progress compounds.

U.S.-Licensed Teacher
Leads live class, reading instruction, and discussion. Delivers written feedback on every student's draft.
Teaching Assistant
Tracks progress, supports the class, assists with writing feedback, and reviews homework — so classroom time stays focused on learning.
What parents receive: a clear written summary of what was covered, how your child did, and what to focus on next.
