Could be a sticking thermostat , check engine coolant fan is kicking in when temp rises . Worse case scenario if still having problems , carry out a block test for cyl . head gasket problems

I have given you possible causes which need checking by someone qualified or more knowledgeable . You might be better getting a workshop manual if you intend to do any work yourself or perhaps get a garage / mechanic to look and check it out if you are not mechanically inclined .
