Pure Imagination Tuition

Spelling Tic Tac Toe!

I love getting the children to play this game. Select some words from your spellings for that week and get the children to compete against each other. Works exactly the same as tic tac toe but they must spell the word correctly each time to be able to win.

Summer holidays are creeping up and so is another end to the academic year ☀️

It’s always lovely to hear how well my students are doing, especially when it comes to confidence and independence with their learning.

Thank you for your kind words 🙏

“I’m not very good at this” “I can’t do it” “we did this at school but I didn’t get it”

These are just a few of the quotes I hear from my students when they first start tuition and it shocks me every time. What/who made them feel like they were not good at something? Who are they comparing themselves to? At what point did they accept they just couldn’t do it?

Parents/carers will tell me the different areas of learning their children need support with when they first start. When working 1 to 1 with these students, you realise that most of the time, it is confidence in their own abilities that prevents them from moving forward and progressing.

Games, activities, building positive relationships, questions, personalised lessons and targeted interventions are just some of the techniques I use to inspire my students. After a few sessions, you start to see something inside them change. Determination begins to grow. Enjoyment. Self Belief.

There is no greater feeling than when you hear a student finally say “I can do this”.

Wishing all my wonderful students a happy and healthy new year full of new opportunities! 💫 🎉

Lest we forget 🙏

All things are difficult before they are easy.

I always tell children the key to success is believing in yourself and not to be afraid to make a few mistakes along the way, it’s how we learn.

Positive mindset is key 🔑

I love seeing children find the confidence within themselves to take risks and make mistakes yet smile whilst doing so! 😊

When I decided to leave my teaching role in the summer, I was left with a mixture of emotions.

I had a vision in my head of what I wanted to create. But whether it would work was something I doubted every day. I decided to take the risk anyway.

I am so grateful to my family and friends who backed my idea and supported my vision from day one. I’m happy to say that it has worked, I am having the best time positively impacting children on a daily basis. I love seeing children smiling because their confidence is growing and they are starting to believe in their abilities.

Always stand up for what you believe in. The education system is broken but as teachers we have the skills and ability to make a change to children’s lives. I’ll take that risk every single day to make that change!

October tomorrow 🍁 one of my favourite months 🎃

Excited for more lessons and learning. Another month of success 😃

Who’s ready for October?

Always lovely to get nice feedback like this 😊

As long as there is a love for learning there, that’s the most important thing.

“When little people are overwhelmed by emotions, it’s our job to share our calm, not join their chaos.”

Talking to our children about emotions and feelings is a necessity but sometimes it can be difficult to start the conversation. Here are a selection of my favourite children’s books about different emotions.
