Every teacher who has taught an anxious child will know the challenges all too well;

  • Fear of ‘failure’ outweighs the excitement of trying new things.

  • Certain situations are so challenging, the child is forced to avoid them altogether.

  • Avoidance of challenging and overwhelming situations.

Instead of exploring a world of possibilities, children can be left struggling in a land of limbo and closed doors.  I wanted to share this fantastic resource with fellow educators: 5 Ways to Build Confidence written by Tom Sherrington & David Goodwin.  

Parents, we think that you can adapt some of these techniques as well.

 

 

Our Results

An effective reading program needs to be backed by strong results.  Literacy for Boys was independently tested in one of the largest State Primary schools in Qld.  Students in Years 3 to 6 improved their reading, spelling and comprehension ages by an average of 12 months after only 18 weeks on our program!  Click here for the full report.
