Hi, I'm Sandra.
With over 20 years of classroom teaching experience across both primary and secondary education, I bring a rare blend of compassion, depth, and versatility to every student I teach.
My strength lies in transforming complex scientific concepts into engaging, digestible lessons while building positive rapport with students and parents alike. I am not just a teacher—I am a mentor, a motivator, and a lifelong learner.
As the founder of JumpSpark Academy, I channel my decades of experience and passion for education into helping students unlock their potential and thrive—no matter their starting point.
I’ve taught in classrooms with no resources and in well provisioned science labs, but what matters most is connection—the spark that makes a student believe they can.
That’s what JumpSpark Academy is about: igniting potential and nurturing excellence.
Biology shouldn’t be confusing. We teach students the simplest way to understand complex topics using visual breakdowns, memory tricks, and real exam practice so they can ace their exams without endless memorisation.
Discover personalised lessons that combine mindset coaching and hands-on strategies, perfect for students who struggle to stay motivated or have a Special Educational Need (SEN)
We don’t just teach; we continuously test and assess, ensuring that students can accurately apply what they’ve learned in real exam conditions, helping them refine their skills and perform at their very best.
