What parents say...

“Also can I just say a massive thank you too, Ellie was a bit apprehensive before her first session but when she came home last week she was absolutely buzzing, she loved her time spent there and felt so much happier even after just one session. So thank you, she has been so worried about her exams especially English.”
"Thank You."

So once again thank you for all the work you did with him.” Emily (parent) 2021

At the time of writing this testimonial, my daughter has had only 5 sessions and her confidence and ability has increased significantly!  (Now) she talks of enjoying maths and of her abilities in maths instead of her inabilities, participates more in maths lessons at school and is keen to do her maths homework, both from school and from the sessions.  As a parent I am thrilled that her confidence has grown significantly and would recommend I Love to Learn without hesitation.

Alex says ” I learned more in three months than my whole time in the maths classroom at school. I went from dreading it to feeling much better about being there.” This Summer he was overjoyed to find that he had gone from a Grade 2 in his mocks up to a Grade 4 (C) pass in his final exam.

Monica (Tomek’s mum)
I was told at school that Harrison had fallen about 2 years behind in reading, writing and spelling. Harrison took to it straight away.  He has made fantastic progress and is meeting all his targets.  He loves the points and prizes that he collects for working so he comes out buzzing after every session!

How Can TV Interfere WithYour Child’s Learning?

Does TV Help or Hinder?

Most homes nowadays have more than one TV screen. They are part of the furniture and have been for two or maybe three generations. My dad was a TV repair man, so we were never without one when I was a child!

However, at our education centre we advise parents to take the TV out of children’s rooms.  For children to develop vocabulary, expression and story telling skills they need to read and hear stories.  Our experience is that TV does not help this process.

Some researchers have found that watching television can result in delayed development, emotionally and mentally. In fact it is recommended that before the age of 2 children should not watch television at all! Let’s look at why;

  • TV replaces interactive learning experiences which are vital in the early years.
  • TV overloads the visual part of the brain, depriving other areas such as, creativity and imagination.
  • TV uses too many fast paced images, which means children find it difficult to be patient and focus for any length of time.
  • TV does not need a response, no skills are needed and so none are developed. Important skills such as planning and judging are neglected
  • TV interferes with building relationships and interacting with real people.
  • TV replaces physical activity with sedentary, leading to unhealthy lifestyle habits.

This is hard for us parents to take because as we all know TV is also the best babysitter the world has ever known! So what can we do? Well, here are some suggestions;

  • Keep under twos away from the TV!
  • Limit viewing, no more than one or two hours a day
  • Choose programmes and DVDs which you think are suitable (monitor the violence and content).
  • Absolutely no TV in any bedrooms as this has an impact on sleep.
  • Watch and discuss together, promote a critical approach to what they see.
  • Think of alternative activities.

As children grow and learn they need interactive experiences with their physical surroundings and people. A screen wastes precious time and does not provide these experiences. Children who watch television before the age of two often experience language delay and perform poorly later on at school.
