“I’m not good at this”, “I can’t do it”, “I’m dumb”. “I don’t understand.” Do any of these phrases sound familiar? Not understanding key concepts covered in class can have a massive impact on a child’s confidence and self esteem, and ultimately their attitude and progression with their learning.
The classroom is a busy and dynamic place where learning is industrious and often moves at a fast pace. Teachers aim to address the individual needs of each child within their classroom however due to the amount they need to cover and curriculum requirements, time is scarce and often children may not obtain a full understanding of the key concepts covered. As a result the foundations and building blocks required to develop skills and understanding may not be laid and therefore when that topic or concept is revisited, children cannot draw on the basics and in-turn build on and develop an understanding of new concepts.
Their attitude towards learning changes, their self belief and self esteem diminishes and they start to think that they cannot do things or experience success. So why is one-on-one tutoring so powerful and how does it build happy, smart and confident kids?
Tutoring allows children that struggle with the regular classroom setting to learn and develop the confidence to explore unfamiliar concepts at their own pace within a supportive environment where they feel safe to risk take without being worried about getting something ‘wrong’ or sharing their ideas. Focused one-on-one learning allows the child and tutor to develop a positive learning relationship and attitude towards learning and approaching new topics without worry or fear.
Tutors take the time to get to know the student’s needs and develop an individualised learning plan that focuses specifically on where they are struggling. The key to success lies in the powerful relationship between the student and their tutor; having mutual respect, knowing the child’s interests: what they like, what they don’t like and what they hope to achieve is essential.
Using the interests of the child within their session to engage them in their learning is a fun and fantastic way to explore concepts, would you believe that you can integrate music into learning maths? Taylor Swift’s “Shake it Off’ was used to explore “Odd and Even” numbers and resulted in a successful understanding of a topic in a fun way that had meaning to the student.
Tutoring is a powerful way to help any child experience success at their own level, whether that be to improve or develop skills or extend and challenge.

Hearty Health
Book Week is coming up in the Child Care Calendar and there is no better time to help encourage healthy eating habits in children than by reading a good book about it!
Here are our top 3 recommendations for Book Week in 2018 which focus on health eating:
We Are What We Eat– by Kristy Hammil- According to the description, “Your kids will start to recognize the difference between foods that are nourishing to their bodies and foods that aren’t.” Great for kids 2-10 years old.
Berenstain Bears and Too Much Junk Food by Stan and Jan Berenstain. Mama and Dr. Grizzly attempt to help their children understand the importance of nutritious foods and exercise.
Gregory the Terrible Eater by Mitchell Sharmat – Gregory is a goat that only eats fruits, vegetables, bread and butter. This disappoints his parents because they wish he would eat tires, shoelaces, tin cans, and cardboard. The kids think it’s hilarious!
Hearty Health are passionate about providing fresh seasonal meals to children in child care which are delivered directly to child care centre fridges every day.
Contact Hearty Health at

Does Gratitude really help us feel more content with life?
We hear a lot about gratitude and how it can help us feel happier and more content with life, but does it really work?
Robert A Emmons, social scientist and the author of ‘Gratitude Works’, has been studying the science of gratitude for many years. Called the ‘world expert’ on Gratitude by Berkeley University in California, Emmons has completed countless studies involving thousands of people aged between 8-80 around the benefits of gratitude and how it works to definitely increase our feelings of contentment with life, when it comes to the past, present or the future.
His Clinical Trials indicate that the practice of gratitude can have dramatic and lasting effects in a person’s life. It can lower blood pressure, improve immune function, promote happiness and well-being and incite acts of helpfulness, generosity and cooperation.
Gratitude is defined as ‘A felt sense of wonder, thankfulness, and appreciation for life’. It ‘Helps us savour our positive experiences’.
Let’s face it, as we…….. (Read more of this article here ………)
