About Us
Mindset Focus
Our focus involves fostering a growth mindset, where children understand that their abilities and skills can be developed with effort and persistence. By emphasizing the process of learning rather than just the end result, tutors help students build resilience and a love for learning. Our activities are designed to be engaging and tailored to each child’s interests and needs, ensuring that learning is both enjoyable and effective. Encouragement and positive reinforcement play crucial roles, helping children build confidence and a belief in their capacity to grow and succeed.
Hands-on Approach
Our hands-on approach in tutoring primary school children involves engaging them in active learning that goes beyond traditional methods. This approach includes interactive activities, such as educational games and manipulatives for Maths concepts. We use literacy activities using letter tiles or magnetic letters for spelling practice, participating in reading games that encourage phonemic awareness and vocabulary building, which makes learning more dynamic and enjoyable. By directly involving students in the learning process, they can better grasp abstract concepts and retain information more effectively. This method also allows for immediate feedback and personalized instruction, catering to each child’s unique learning style and pace. Through hands-on learning, children develop critical thinking and problem-solving skills, fostering a deeper understanding and a lifelong love for learning.
