James

Primary Maths & Literacy

How BEST helped:

I began working with James during August 2023, these lessons were once a week to support his learning around numeracy and literacy. Lessons are hour long and broken into 4 activities each, a numeracy activity, a reading activity, a spelling activity and a grammar/writing activity. Occasionally we added in other lessons from the curriculum tied in with numeracy and literacy too, and supported any homework given by the school.The work we completed was coordinated with what work he needs most support on when in the classroom to replicate that in our lessons. James has improved his skills and abilities significantly over the last year. During this time I also began tutoring James’ older sister Lacey. These lessons were once a week to support his learning around numeracy and literacy. Lessons are hour long and broken into 2 activities each, a numeracy activity, and a grammar, writing or comprehension activity. Lacey’s comprehension most notably improved vastly and has left her in a great position to start secondary school.

Client Testimonial

My son loves the lesson and always asks when the next one is. The lesson covers reading, comprehension and numeracy skills. Becca finds solutions to meet his learning needs and she is very patient. The hour seems to go quickly and the lesson keeps his attention. I would highly recommend Becca’s tutoring services which are tailored to suit your child’s needs with good feedback to the parents.
