Excellent guidance for parents for online tutoring. I tutor face-to-face but there is still relevant, helpful advice here. I am always happy to show my certificates when meeting families - please just ask. If you use other tutors who are online, please do follow the guidance below.
Here is the 'ladder of reading' created by today's Book Clubbers. Children aged 8 and 9 worked together to agree the pecking order of some of their favourite books. No surprises to see Harry Potter at the top! Weekly book club for KS2 children who love to read from September - find out more here. I use this website's resources quite a bit to make learning visual and interactive. Their games and tools are fantastic for all learners so their name is a bit misleading, I feel! It's worth a browse if you are looking for little things to help at home. https://www.thedyslexiashop.co.uk/
If you would like any advice about which products would be most helpful for your child, feel free to ask me. If you're looking to challenge your child in maths through the summer, check out the NRICH daily interactive game or puzzle at https://nrich.maths.org/14283 from 18th July. Grab a £10 discount off my summer workshops for 6-11 year olds - Chocolate Workshop or Tiger Art. Find out all about these fun half-day sessions and how to claim your discount here.
There are many excellent websites with helpful 11+ information but I think these two pages from Bond are useful for parents to look at and understand a bit more of the process, as well as free opportunities for your child to practise questions online.

To celebrate the launch of my new weekly classes in September, I am offering a free class on Tuesday 9th August 10-11am. Only 8 spaces are available (for children who will be in Years 4 - 6 from September) - so please get in touch to book a place. Book Club and Creative Writing This is an ideal club for children in Y4-6 who enjoy reading and would like to develop their writing skills. Children discuss and discover books alongside developing a broad range of creative writing techniques. Other weekly classes I offer: Homework, Science, 11+ & SATs boosters and English & Maths. |
