ith summer sadly coming to an end and autumn just around the corner, the preparations for the new school term begin. Ulster Tatler has put together a selection of essentials for helping your kids get back to school. The top things to consider before the new school term begins is buying new uniform, stationary and booking ahead for tutors and extracurricular clubs.
TUTORTOO – A FAMILY OF LEARNERS MOVING FORWARD TOGETHER The Tutortoo family has been working with students and parents across Northern Ireland since Spring 2020. They provide educational guidance to families with students at every age, stage and ability level. Post-primary teachers, Trevor and Jenine Jamison, have gathered a team of like-minded educators who share their vision for individualised teaching and learning. This team takes time to explore the nuances of a student’s learning needs, to identify personal learning styles while considering the student’s interests and passions. Matching students to the right tutor with the expertise and experience needed is the top priority, it is not about availability but rather suitability. Tutors help their students to set personal goals that ensure progression and celebrate their successes. When a student is struggling in a subject area low confidence leads to fixed mindsets that insist “I cannot do this.” Tutors acknowledge but challenge this way of thinking. When preparation, patience, practice, and praise are applied in equal measure students flourish. Pamela said; “Before my daughter began her tutoring she had very little confidence in maths and her marks were average. However through the tutor’s commitment, enthusiasm and professionalism, academically she is now excelling within this subject and has grown in confidence”.
