A Boost in Confidence Leads to a Boost in Grades!

In my thirty years of teaching I have found one thing to be true of every single student that I have ever taught: once they understand that 'getting something 'wrong' is part of the process of 'getting it right', their fear of failure dissipates, their confidence soars and their grades improve! 

They no longer feel that struggling to understand something is the same as being 'slow' or 'stupid'. They begin to equate wrestling with an answer with developing understanding|! 

Over the years I have worked with students with special needs such as selective mutism, social anxiety, dyslexia and it has been my pleasure to watch these children and young people blossom into independent, successful learners. So whatever your concern or your child's particular learning challenge, I know that we can work it out!
