Durham Tutors

Mrs. Clare Cann
B.A. (Hons.) PGCE

My name is Clare Cann and I am the Home-School Tutoring Advisor for the Durham Area (the DH post code areas. )

I will be very pleased to advise and help you.

If you’re looking for a tutor either for yourself or for someone who needs tuition, please tell me about your tutoring requirements using the Tutoring Enquiry form.

It helps to give as much detail as you can, so that I can assess your needs and your specific requirements and preferences. I will then do my best to personally recommend the most suitable tutor to you from my team of local tutors.

If you are a qualified teacher, tutor or graduate living in this Area , I invite you to register with us. Please get in touch using the Become a Tutor form.

It’s easy to do and I look forward to speaking to you soon.

Best wishes,

Mrs. Clare Cann B.A. (Hons.) PGCE

Clare is an English Literature graduate and has fifteen years’ experience as a qualified teacher. She spent four years of her career in Peru and that very much opened her eyes to the opportunities her vocation offers and the difference that good teaching makes to individual lives.

Clare has a clear understanding of the invaluable support that tuition gives to students of all ages and abilities and she is passionate about helping each individual receive personally-tailored tuition.

As a mum of two, becoming an Area Advisor for Home-School Tutoring has been a challenge and given her the flexibility to enjoy motherhood to the full, whilst continuing her passion for teaching. With her husband John and their children, they have fun walking, swimming and camping. She also loves cooking, gardening and looking after her hens! Clare is a board member of her local nursery committee and enjoys being involved in fund-raising.

Clare has a growing register of conscientious and empathetic tutors, who strive to nurture each pupil's individual ability. Many of her clients continue with their tutors over a number of years and recommend Home-School to their friends.

She finds it so rewarding when families give feedback and tell her of personal successes and achievements and the help that individual tuition has been. Clare will be delighted to help you.

Each Home-School Tutoring Area seeks experienced, qualified teachers and graduates who can be available as tutors. Enjoy seeing your pupils develop confidence and make progress.

We particularly need more primary school teachers for special educational needs and basic numeracy and literacy and more teachers of Mathematics, English and Sciences at GCSE and Advanced Level but ALL tutors are welcome. Do join us!
