Help For Children and Parents

More and more children are struggling with anxiety, worries and stress.  Whether it’s about school, friendships, social media, exams or a range of other things.

Tom was fantastic with our 9 year old daughter: he put her at her ease and his experience as a teacher meant that he could explain and use visual aids which she would identify with. He went above and beyond our expectations to give her methods to work on, and recordings which she could take away and use.

Thankfully there’s a growing body of evidence to show the ways children can be supported to be happier and more confident. Get in touch to find out how.

As a Teacher and Assistant Headteacher I’ve worked with children and their parents to help them become happy and successful. It’s been a passion of mine that’s continued.

I originally trained as an EFL (English Foreign Language) Teacher in Prague, teaching young children and teenagers both in the UK and abroad.  Later I trained as a Primary School Teacher and taught in schools for many years.  I absolutely loved helping children to learn, not just academically but also in terms of their social and emotional development.

Having seen first-hand the worries, challenges and anxieties that children can have, both in and out of school, I am committed to helping them overcome these and become happy, resilient and confident in who they are and what they are capable of.

With younger children the involvement of parents/carers is vital.

I help children (and their parents) with:

• Social anxiety
• Confidence
• Shyness
• Fitting in
• Worries about SATS/Tests/Exams
• Friendships
• Difficulties in certain lessons/subjects
• Starting school
• Moving up a year
• Changing school
• Developing a ‘Growth Mindset’ (ask me how this can make a huge difference to your child!)
• Social media:  how they portray themselves, how others see them, their reaction to being on there and seeing others on there, negative feedback from others
