Mistakes help students improve
Students who feel able to try, without worrying about being right first time, make steadier progress.
Many students hold back because they are afraid of getting an answer wrong. I build confidence into every lesson, and encourage students to have a go and use mistakes to deepen their understanding.
I am also a certified coach with a background in psychology, which underpins my interest in helping young people develop both as learners and personally.
