Education

School should be an exciting opportunity to learn, make friends and have fun. However it can often be a daunting prospect especially when motivation and confidence are lacking and these are often the major factors which hold pupils back and prevent them from reaching their potential.

I work with pupils of all ages to build confidence and self-esteem and provide them with an arena in which they can explore their emotions and feelings enabling them to better understand themselves. Identifying their strengths and developing the areas they think they are struggling in can provide pupils with a sense of control which helps to enhance motivation. Understanding more about what they are thinking and feeling can give pupils a renewed self of self helping to enhance self-esteem. I operate in a pupil focussed manner ensuring all one-to-one sessions are bespoke and designed to suit the needs of the individual at a particular point in time.

Additionally I can provide group sessions on a variety of topics such as having a healthy attitude towards sport, using music to enhance performance and how to have a winning mind. Group workshops could fit into a programme during your healthy schools week, could be delivered as part of a P.E. lesson or even as an extra curricular activity. Again group workshops are designed on an individual basis to meet the requirements of a particular school. They could be focused purely on the educational side or come from a sporting angle to engage the pupils and encourage them to use what they learn from sport inside the classroom.

Furthermore I can provide specialist teaching on the psychology components of A/S and A-Level P.E. ensuring pupils receive an applied as well as a theoretical perspective on the topics.
