What parents say...

She says “I Love to Learn Now!”

Mariana brought her daughter to us as she was having a few problems with maths at school.  She liked it so much that now she comes for English as well!  Mariana says that now “She is more confident with math now and she’s coming to I Love to Learn for pleasure.  She is very happy with her teacher, she says she is very kind and patient.”

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.

Thank you so much for helping me with my maths!  I have come along much more in maths lessons at school! Hopefully, depending on whether I need help when I go to Secondary School I might come back again. (I hope so)  Thank you again. Madison.

We are so pleased that Mahera has got a FULL BURSARY for the local girl’s high school in Portsmouth.  She has been to your centre before for tuition but we came back in November so she could get ready for the exams.   She has worked so hard and Linda has really encouraged her in her writing!  Thanks so much!
Mahera's Mum
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.

Albie
Albie had been diagnosed with mild dyslexia and his reading age was around 2 years behind!  The standard in private school is often higher, so we were worried about the Entrance Exams.  Soon after he enrolled he started making rapid progress.  The school say he is now Level  5 in literacy and the teacher can see a lot of difference.  His reading age has shot up and the gaps in maths have been filled in and he has caught up amazingly quickly. It has definitely, definitely made a difference and I have recommended the centre to my friends.
Jilly (Albie’s Mum)
Thank you both so much for all the support you have give our Darcey.  she really has grown in her confidence with her maths and you have defo given her the foundations to grow.  She is very excited about starting senior school in September and I am sure we will be back in the future for more support for her or her younger sister.  Big, big hugs.

“We also had a parent’s meeting at his school earlier this week.  I am pleased to say that his maths teacher was very impressed with not only his work, but also his attitude toward it.  I can only say that this is because of the wonderful service you and your colleagues have given.  Thank you so much for this.  Ellis is really enjoying his time with you and also seeing how well he is doing and this has resulted in a positive attitude towards learning.” James (parent) 2021

Fun Spelling Rules

Making Spelling Fun

One of the ways we can help students with their English is by having some fun with some commonly misspelt words. In many exams marks are allocated for spelling, it also builds confidence to know that you have spelt a word correctly without resorting to spellchecker.

I had a rather eccentric school English teacher who believed that if you could spell ACCOMMODATION (two C’s and two M’s) you would pass your O level and he made the whole class recite it most lessons.

spellingAlternatively you could just test each other over a meal or on the way to school, we all love a challenge and the rules mean ‘no phones’.

Here are a few you might want to test each other on:

SEPARATE is a tricky word, two A’s separated by a P.

Big Elephants Are Usually BEAUtiful.

I before E except after C applies to BELIEVE, FRIEND and RECEIVE.

You can DEFINITELY find the word with FINITE in it.

Do you go Really Red And Smile Shyly when EMBARRASSed?

You certainly do if you are caught short with DIARRHOEA, you need to Dash In A Real Rush, Hurry Or Else Accident.

You can even put some words to music as RHYTHM Helps You To Hear Music.

Give it a go, no need for a special OCCASION (although if it is you’ll need to travel over two seas (C’s) to get to it.

To enhance students’ spelling, incorporate fun practices with tricky words, as exam scores often include spelling accuracy, boosting confidence without spellcheck reliance. An eccentric English teacher swore mastery of “ACCOMMODATION” ensured exam success. Engage in spelling challenges during meals or commutes without phones. Practice words like “SEPARATE,” with mnemonic aids like “Big Elephants Are Usually BEAUtiful” for “BEAUTIFUL,” and the rule “I before E except after C” for words like “BELIEVE.” Reminder mnemonics for “EMBARRASSED” and “DIARRHOEA” can assist recall, as can setting words like “RHYTHM” to music. Use these techniques anytime, not just for special occasions.
