In my sessions, I incorporate a wide variety of multi-sensory tools, these tactile and visual materials help reinforce key concepts in reading and writing, allowing the child to learn through multiple senses.
My tutoring sessions are designed using a structured, multi-sensory approach to support children with dyslexia. This approach is systematic and personalized, focusing on identifying any gaps in the child’s prior knowledge and addressing them in ways that align with how the child learns best. By tapping into their strengths and interests, I ensure that each session is engaging and motivating, creating a learning environment where children feel confident to move forward at their own pace.

Having worked in mainstream education, specialist speech and language provisions, and special needs schools, I’ve had the opportunity to develop and refine my methods for teaching children with a range of learning needs. This background has provided me with the experience to adapt lessons to fit each child’s unique learning style. I don’t just focus on traditional teaching techniques; I create dynamic, engaging sessions that include activities indoors and outdoors, incorporating movement, play, and creativity. This ensures that children stay motivated and are able to connect with the material in ways that make sense to them.
Through these personalised, multi-sensory sessions, I am able to support children with dyslexia by not only addressing their academic needs but also building their confidence and helping them develop essential skills that will enable them to become independent, successful learners.

Does my child need to be diagnosed with dyslexia to use your tutoring service?
No, your child does not need a formal dyslexia diagnosis to access my tutoring services. I provide support for children who experience difficulties with literacy, whether or not they have been officially diagnosed with dyslexia. Each session is personalized to address their specific challenges and help them improve their skills.
What areas do you support my child with during tutoring sessions?
I provide support in various areas of literacy, including reading, writing, spelling, and comprehension. Sessions focus on phonics, vocabulary development, grammar, and fluency, all tailored to your child's specific needs. Additionally, I help with building study skills, boosting self-confidence, and developing strategies to manage the challenges associated with dyslexia.
Where does your tutoring take place?
Tutoring sessions can take place at your child's school, in your home, or at my home office. I offer flexible options to ensure a comfortable and convenient learning environment that best suits your child's needs.

Thanks to her, we finally have answers and a plan to help him with his reading and writing. I would highly recommend Claire’s services to any parent with concerns about their child’s learning."
