Coaching V Tutoring

We are not a tutoring service.

In most cases tutoring involves formulaic, subject specific, content delivery - information is ‘poured’ into students and success is defined by the passing of a test.

By contrast, I work alongside each student as a cognitive ‘coach’.

Academic success = the ability to effectively take in, encode, manipulate, and fluently retrieve information. These processes are underpinned by clarity of thought.

I work with students to teach them how to organise their thinking and to understand how the brain learns.

This process includes understanding the role of motivation, self efficacy, and focused attention. Equipped with these tools, students are enabled to realise their true potential.
