Parents in Kendal often come to us after feeling that school support isn't enough. Perhaps your child has an EHCP but still needs extra help outside school, or they've been identified as needing support but the school's resources are stretched. Our SEN tutors bridge that gap with consistent, specialist one-to-one sessions.
Working With EHCPs and School Support
If your child in Kendal has an Education, Health and Care Plan (EHCP), our tutors can work towards the outcomes specified in it. For children on SEN Support without a plan, we can still target the specific areas flagged by the school's SENCO. Our tutors provide regular progress updates that you can share with school or other professionals involved in your child's education.
Dyscalculia and Maths Difficulties
Children with dyscalculia in Kendal often struggle with number sense, place value, and the mental manipulation of numbers. Our tutors use concrete materials — number lines, Cuisenaire rods, base-ten blocks — to build understanding from the ground up. The goal is genuine comprehension, not memorised procedures that fall apart under pressure.
ADHD and Focus
Students with ADHD in Kendal often benefit from shorter, more varied sessions with built-in movement breaks and frequent task switching. Our tutors know how to structure a session that keeps a child engaged without overwhelming them, using timers, checklists, and immediate feedback to maintain momentum.
Dyslexia Support
Dyslexia affects reading, spelling, and sometimes writing speed. Our tutors in Kendal use structured, multi-sensory approaches — such as Orton-Gillingham based methods — that break language down into manageable steps. Sessions focus on building phonological awareness, decoding skills, and reading fluency at a pace that allows your child to succeed.
If your child in Kendal has a learning difference and you're looking for a tutor who truly understands, we can help. Contact us with a bit of background about your child — their diagnosis, what's working, what isn't — and we'll suggest the right next step.
