OUR THOUGHTS ON HONOR
HONOR’S THOUGHTS ON TUTORING
“I create spaces where your child will feel safe, nurtured and be happy to engage in learning with me. The support will be designed to encourage your loved one to fully embrace themselves in their learning process. Every learning journey is unique; it can by its nature present learners with challenges. These challenges can bring with them anxiety, fear and eventual disengagement. However, when supported and navigated positively said challenges provide incredible opportunities for growth.”
As with all our tutors, Honor is fully DBS certified.
