Due to COVID-19, all lessons are now online.
Janet aims to give the child confidence, a belief in their own ability and prepare them for English in the school environment. She prepares students so that they are able to produce an interesting, well punctuated piece of written work. After assessing your child during an initial meeting, Janet then prepares a course of lessons to suit their requirements. She works through the topics ensuring students understand each stage before moving on. Homework is set on the topics covered in the lesson to reinforce what has been taught in the lesson.
