I’ve had lots and lots of emails about summer courses (and even some bookings which does seem crazy being 10 weeks in advance, but they do sell out so I guess it makes sense!) so here is the first glimpse of this year’s offerings.

There’s a mix of skills and fun and KS2 up to KS4… lots to get you ready for back to school or autumn learning. (Can’t believe I said the phrase ‘back to school’ in the first week of June!)

They’ll be bookable on Eventbrite by Monday but I am taking bookings directly if you want to secure a place.

For any questions or bookings, please email [email protected] 🌟

This time of year, lots of home-educating parents ask me which English Language iGCSE is best. The truth is, no spec is better, but there may well be one that is better for your child.

It can be a bit confusing, but this quick quiz could help you decide!

My live, online classes cover both Edexcel Specs, so if you’re unsure of which to enrol in (or if you just want to know which would work best for your child), take a look!

I’ve made a little leaver’s book for children finishing primary school this year.

Inside, there’s pages of prompts for children to fill out by themselves and with friends, as well as spaces for teachers to record meaningful memories quickly and easily. A great way for Year 6 children to make their own little keepsake. 😊

If you have a school leaver in your life, take a look at the ‘look inside’ pages online for more information: https://englishelephant.co.uk/buy-me/

The ‘Best Bits Leaver’s Journal’ is available to buy on Amazon: https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B0CX14H3W9

Our story

I have had a keen interest in the learning and development of babies, children and young students, since 2008. My relentless research into educational approaches and resources was largely fueled by the needs and development of my own children – who have been a constant reminder of how individual a child can be.

Our first-born is an extremely confident social-butterfly, with an aptitude for learning that demands a challenging schedule, and still she will stay up late reading several books simultaneously. Our son is an over-thinker, with worries and anxieties, and yet he is extremely imaginative and naturally agile, whilst possessing a bold personality to keep us all on our toes! Both children excel academically; however, they learn in quite different ways.

Our daughter began her early years in a Montessori setting, and, after a recommendation from MENSA, we ensured that she gained a full-time place in a local primary school with a reputable gifted-and-talented provision. However, when she was 6 years old (in 2015), we took the decision to home educate as it proposed a more flexible curriculum suited to her interests and abilities. In contrast, our summer-born son attended the same Montessori setting, but he never really settled. And, after the success of home educating his older sister, we never even registered him at a school. In fact, home education suits our son even more than it does our daughter - who would enjoy certain aspects of a school setting, but doe prefer the freedom of being home-schooled.

As a family, we only ever envisaged home educating throughout the primary years; therefore, I prepared our daughter for entrance exams at reputable grammar and independent schools. She repeatedly passed exams, assessments and induction days - receiving offers of a place at the private junior and high schools, as well as at a very selective grammar school. However, having begun to embrace online distance-learning options from the age of 10; she chose to remain home educated with online courses in Math, English, Geography, Physics and Business Studies - facilitated at home by myself – thus, allowing her to space out IGCSE exams, taking a couple each year from age 11.
