I’ve had a few questions and enquiries recently about group tuition, so I thought I’d explain a little more about what I can offer. 😊

Small-group sessions can be a really lovely option for children who would benefit from some extra support, but may feel more comfortable learning alongside others. This can be part of after school tutoring or home education.

✅ Targeted support while still keeping sessions fun and engaging
✅ Activities can still be adapted to the children within the group
✅ Opportunities to learn from, encourage and support each other
✅ A relaxed group environment where some children may feel less pressure or nervous
✅ Different pricing to 1:1 sessions, reflecting the small-group setting

If group tuition is something you’ve been considering, feel free to send me a message and we can have a chat about what might work best for your child.

Does you child struggle with times table facts?

💡 Try get them to use the facts that they DO know to work out the answer:
Instead of simply asking “What’s 6 × 8?”

🗣️Ask - What do you already know that could help you work it out? Is there a near fact that you know (5 x 8 )? Do you know the reverse table (8 x6)? Can you split it and do 3 x 8 and 3 x 8?

Times tables can take time to become automatic. Celebrate the thinking, not just the correct answer and the connections they can make. 💙

Would you rather….?

I used these cards on a reluctant writer and he absolutely loved it. We both came up with an idea and wrote it on a special blue card. We could talk about how to spell ‘would’ and also question marks.

What else could you do with these cards?

✨ In one of yesterday’s sessions, we focused on a few different things — all with confidence building as a focus.

✅We played a game to practise fast recall of doubles. This helps to strengthen times tables and other operations.
💭 We brainstormed ideas about a mysterious castle.
✏️ Finally, we started writing a description including focusing on adding in details.

It’s great to see children become more confident, even in just one session. Those little steps in confidence can make such a big difference and they can hopefully use this in school too!

If your child could benefit from a little extra support or a confidence boost with their learning, feel free to get in touch to find out more about my tutoring sessions. 😊

Fantastic first session with a Year 4 student last night. We were building confidence with times tables using UNO cards. We looked at some place value knowledge too.
In writing, I did a baseline assessment and I taught her a silly way to spell and remember because!
We do 30 mins maths and 30 mins writing which worked really well. 📝 ➕

People ask me why I wanted to teach and presume it’s for the holidays or the money!

From being 6 years old I wanted to be a teacher and it was everything I wanted for a long time and I loved it. Unfortunately over the years the job changed and it wasn’t what it used to be. So in June I made the decision to walk away from having a class of my own for the first time in 17 years to try something different.
