One of the most frustrating things a parent can face is watching their child struggle in school.
Yet many children hit speed bumps during their early school years. For some children it’s trying to master math. For others it could be tackling spelling and grammar – or reading.
What seems like something that should be easy to achieve ends up being a source of daily angst for both the students – and their families.
For most parents and teachers the advice is to push the child to try harder … to spend more time on homework … or to start paying attention in class.
But if there was a different approach?
One that not only was more effective in helping your child to learn – but that they also enjoyed. Something that made learning fun and helped build a strong bond between parents and their school age children?
Today we are joined by Dawn Strachan, the founder of the massively successful Clara James Tutoring Method and author of ‘Square Pegs, Round Holes’ a book that offers innovative ways to help primary school children master even the most challenging subjects.
