Do you do face-to-face lessons

Where do the lessons take place?

If you had asked me that prior to lockdown I would have stated that every lessons takes place in your home. If your child is in an environment where they feel relaxed and comfortable, they will be in a better position to concentrate and retain the information.

When I first started the business, I was very opinionated on the belief that if a child was in an environment where they were surrounded by familiar objects and people they would feel more confident and in a better state of mind to learn.

However, Covid changed that.

It suddenly became apparent that I changed my attitude, or I lost my business... I changed my attitude and it actually worked quite well.

We now offer lessons either in your home or online. Either way, lessons are still always one-to-one and tailored to your specific needs.

Now several years later, most people are returning to face-to-face but for many families online works better. So, now we are able to offer whichever works better for you.

We are also considering introducing small groups of no more than 3 people for online lessons.

If you have any questions or would like to get in touch, email me at [email protected]

For the past 20+ years I have been a firm believer that learning should be an enjoyable experience. I appreciate that traditionally education has revolved around worksheets, textbooks, listening to teachers. But a grounding in early years and working with children who had a variety of learning styles from I learned that it is an individual activity that is personal to all of us. We don’t all learn in the same way. Our influences, our experiences, our capabilities all influence how we retain information. But through it all, I believe that if we can make it enjoyable and engaging, they will want to participate. With participation comes practice which in turn boosts skill and confidence. With an increase in skill and confidence comes a willingness to have a go. This in turn leads to more practice which leads to a positive spiral of success. The moral, we need to make learning fun, engaging, use a range of techniques.
