Helping Children Grow

I offer specialised tutoring for children who have specific learning difficulties such as Dyslexia, ADHD, ASD and generalised developmental delays.

Did you know 1 in 3 children struggle to learn basic literacy and numeracy skills in a classroom which is designed for the average learner? This brings much distress and anxiety to children who are unable to keep up with their peers and low self-esteem follows, which impacts the whole of their future lives.

In the past it was not understood that specific learning difficulties exist, such as dyslexia, auditory processing difficulties etc. Even today, most main-stream teachers are not equipped with the understanding required to teach and support these students.

I have worked with many students with learning difficulties who have struggled to read or write or understand mathematics. From my training at SPELD NSW, I gained an understanding of these learning differences and was given techniques and programmes to enhance learning.

From my work in Waldorf schools, I deepened this understanding to include the underlying hindrances to learning, such as incarnational difficulties, movement imbalances and other special qualities. I provide individualised, multi-sensory lessons to support language, literacy and numeracy skills.

As a therapist, I can offer additional support to students with Flower essences, Chirophonetic therapy, and movement exercises. I have a deep empathy with my students and am passionate about helping to alleviate their anxiety and low self-esteem. From this base of compassionate understanding, they can begin to move forward into a more positive learning experience and growth.
