Hello!
Welcome to BrightKids Education
At BrightKids Education, I believe every child has the potential to excel.
My mission is to provide personalised, holistic education support that addresses both academic and emotional needs.
Empowering Every Child to Shine Bright
A qualified teacher and examiner, Claudine supports kids and young adults who need help with school refusal, school stress, dyslexia, essay writing, English writing, study skills and exam preparation.
Enabling children to feel more comfortable about learning , literacy and being able to tackle coursework and exams is her goal. Working with children with SEMH issues, ADHD and ASD has equipped her to differentiate in a deeper level for all students she works with.
Raising confidence in teens who are nervous about school and exams, especially after COVID-19 is a serious focus now and it should be for you too.

WHAT IS DYSLEXIA?
Dyslexia is something which affects hundreds of thousands of people across the UK. Having dyslexia means that you find learning the traditional way more difficult than others. It can affect memory, spatial awareness, processing, organisational skills, spelling, reading and writing.
TUTORING ARTS AND ENGLISH
The arts can have a profound impact on building confidence and encouraging collaboration and social skills. especially after coming out of a long lockdown, it's not just enough to expect kids to 'get back to normal' so quickly. They have essentially been roaming around their learning for a year now, with many vulnerable kids suffering at home. Adding the arts to the package for most of them will certainly help.
HOMESCHOOLING
It's tough, I know. During lockdown, I was teaching my own kids and other peoples. As a teacher, there was no respite but we did it because it's what we love. Helping others.
