🐣Easter Greetings🐣 I may be having a few days off tutoring, but you can’t take the tutor out of me 😁! My son enjoyed an Easter egg hunt yesterday with maths word questions.

Fast food like you’ve never seen it before! Setting up some very happy fast food meal boxes for my Year 5 11+ groups.

📣Announcing the date of my mental preparation for the 11+ session 📣
So much preparation out there for the 11+ is targeted solely on the academic rigours of preparation, but so much can come down to mental attitude, focus and approach, both before and during the test. The workshop has an assortment of practical activities and games giving hints and tips to your child, equipping them with tools that could make a real difference on the day. For more information or to book, contact me

All set up and ready for my mental preparation for secondary entrance tests workshop tomorrow. The ducks form an important part of an activity 🦆 😃. I always have a choice of pen for each child to use (and keep) during these sessions and my pondering of the evening is which will prove more popular - the cat or frog pens? Current prediction is the cat pens will have it in the popularity stakes
