A long chat with my daughter at bedtime about all her teachers has led me to wonder what pupils have shared with their parents about me over the years. I’m sure that a few thought I was a bit nuts! I just hope that they felt safe, included and valued in my classes.

Often parents wait until nearer prelim time to look for a tutor, but this can often cause pupils a lot of stress and last minute panic.

If pupils work on technique and improve their knowledge and understanding from earlier in the academic year, they are much more confident by prelim time and therefore have a much better chance of achieving the grade of which they are capable.

Pupils can find it difficult to make the jump to the standard required for success at National 5 or Higher level, but the right intervention and support can make a huge difference.

I have limited sessions available in person in Strathaven or online.
