Lesley Manley Tutoring

Unfortunately, the flooding last night reached us in Wakefield's Yard.
We are thankful that it wasn't as bad as it could have been but it is going to take a while to deep clean, and to get everything dried out.
With that in mind, all tuition for the remainder of this week is cancelled. Sincere apologies - hopefully we'll be back to normal next week! 😊

It's time to wish everyone a wonderful summer holiday!
It's been another busy academic year. As always, I feel very privileged to be able to support such lovely students; I am so proud of you all! 😊

Availability update:
I have limited spaces available, commencing in early October, for the new academic year.
If your child (in school Years 3 - 6) would like some support with their maths or English, I can help. Alternatively, if your child will be starting Year 5 in September, and would like to work towards their 11+ entrance exams, I offer both 1:1 and small group sessions.
Please don't hesitate to contact me, for further information, or to make a booking.
Wishing everyone a wonderful Easter time. 😊

It's been a busy couple of weeks!
I have had some wonderful feedback from students who have recently started at their new secondary schools; I'm delighted to hear how well you're settling in.
Today was a big day for my 11+ students - test day! I'm immensely proud of you all, and I'm sure that you will be enjoying your post test day celebrations!
Finally, I am on the move again! When we recommence lessons next month, we'll be back in my teaching room in Wakefield's Yard, Bovey Tracey. 😊

Whilst visiting Cardiff at the weekend, I bumped into Roald Dahl's Enormous Crocodile! 🐊
I'm taking a break until January 8th, when I'll look forward to seeing returning students. Sending Christmas wishes to you all.🎄☃️🎅

I say it often but I'll say it again! I'm beyond lucky to do the work that I do, and to work with such amazing children and families.
Thank you very much for all of the wonderful gifts, and I'm looking forward to hearing from you all on 11+ guidance letter day. ❤
