A programme designed to help children who:

  • Have trouble sounding out words

  • Confuse letters that look similar (p, q and b, d)

  • Are not reading many whole words by sight

  • Struggle with spelling

  • Are reluctant to write

  • Find it difficult to concentrate to learn

Price: £240

This 6 week programme is delivered by me, via Zoom and is for both you and your child. Each session is 50 minutes long. In our sessions together, I will show you simple skills that are easy to learn and will complement your child's unique way of learning. Practicing these skills for just a few minutes a day will give your child the tools to become independent and resilient learners in the classroom.

 
 

 
 

What will I learn?

Topics for the programme will include:

  • Getting Ready to Learn 

Essential tools that will show children how to get their brains to focus when they are learning.

  • Thinking and Learning in Pictures

How to use mental imagery in the learning process

  • Multi-Sensory Word Skills

Using visual, auditory and kinaesthetic learning to help with reading and writing words.  

  • Reading and Remembering

Practising control over mental images to help remember and imagine when reading.

  • Mind Maps for Story Telling and Writing

Creating Mind Maps for telling stories and writing simple sentences. 

  • The 4 Stages of Vocabulary

Intentionally learning new words to improve listening, speaking, reading and writing. 

These 6 topics will give you a thorough understanding of how to support your child at home so they master reading and writing with ease and enjoyment.

 
 

 
 

What additional support will I receive?

After each session I will send you support materials so you can practise the topic for that week. There is no need to buy anything additional, I will supply everything you need. The last 15-20 minutes of each session will be dedicated to YOU and is an opportunity to ask questions that arise from the programme or discuss your child’s learning in general.

“I started seeing results within two weeks with his ability to remember spellings, and new confidence in writing. His new skills in visualisation means that he can now write down on paper what is in his mind. My son's confidence in comprehension and writing is now fantastic.”
