Small things over the holidays can help children feel confident returning to school in January, such as reading together, spotting sounds in everyday words, or simply chatting about stories.

No worksheets required!

Myth: “Group sessions aren’t good for building confidence.”

Truth: For many children, groups are exactly what builds confidence.
Seeing peers try, make mistakes and succeed helps children feel brave enough to have a go themselves, often faster than in 1-1 settings.

We’d love to help your child feel school-ready, confident and excited to learn!

The 90/90/90 Sitting Position - Why It Matters!

A great writing posture starts with one simple rule: 90/90/90

✨ 90° at the hips – Bottom back in the chair, sitting upright�
✨ 90° at the knees – Knees bent comfortably�
✨ 90° at the ankles – Feet flat on the floor for stability

Extra tip: Tilt the paper slightly; this matches natural hand movement and makes letter formation smoother and easier.

This position helps children stay focused, write more neatly, and feel comfortable during learning, especially during phonics, handwriting and longer tasks.

At Glow Worm Primary Tuition, we teach little learners how small habits like this make a big difference in confidence and stamina.
