25.01.2022 Margaret River Handyman Services working hard to give our learning space a makeover before our students return next week. We might be without carpet for a couple of weeks, but that will not stop the learning Looking forward to seeing all our families back soon. x

20.01.2022 Hi all, I have had a vacancy open up on Tuesday afternoon from 4-5pm. My afternoon student has moved to a morning session. If it has been on your mind to get a bit of extra help for your child - call me for a no obligation chat. I work with students of all ages in numeracy and literacy, and have a particular interest and experience with the mathematics disability - Dyscalculia. Thanks, cheers Michelle

18.01.2022 An older podcast, but a great listen for anyone interested in maths difficulties or dyscalculia.

15.01.2022 In this short video (3 min) by the Truama Recovery Centre, kids explain the triune model of the brain. Although this model is a highly simplified explanation of... brain activity and organisation, it provides an easy-to-understand approximation of the hierarchy of brain functions. It can be taught to parents, staff, and young people to help them understand their own responses to distress - knowledge is power. "Paul MacLean introduced the concept of a triune brain in the 1960s. This model of brain structure and function is based on three specific regions of the human brain: the 1) basal ganglia, 2) the limbic system, and 3) the neocortex. Each of these structures is thought to be responsible for a specific group of mental activities: 1) the fight-or-flight survival response and other primal activities, 2) emotions, and 3) rational thinking. MacLean suggested that these structures developed in this order through evolution. However, while the triune brain model provides us with a neat way of looking at the relationship between structure and function in the human brain, evidence has shown various regions are involved in the three groups of activities outlined above. Therefore, there is no such neat division; instead, primal, emotional and rational mental activities are the product of neural activity in more than one of the three regions addressed in MacLean's model, and their collective energy creates human experience.

15.01.2022 What an inspirational woman!

08.01.2022 This is the child. The one we say is too loud, too quiet, too distracted, too active, too shy, too stubborn, too immature, too disruptive, too slow...just, too ...difficult. The one we label a problem. The one we try to change. But I can assure you this child doesn’t want to be a problem. And I can assure you he lies awake at night wondering how to make that change happen. See, it’s not that this child doesn’t understand what is expected of him. He really does. It’s that he finds the path that leads to meeting those expectations suffocating to the point of being impassable. We’ve set a single standard for what every child should learn, where and how they should learn it, when they should have it learned by, and how they need to go about proving that they have. This standard is non-negotiable and unrelenting for more than a decade of their formative years. How they perform against it becomes central to their life narrative, laying a permanent lens over how they see themselves among family, friends and their community. It becomes a key part of how other people describe them. It almost defines their self-confidence and mental health as it weaves its way into the fabric of their lives. And this child...this is the one who day after day, week after week, year after year has to find a way to make things work in an environment that is completely at odds with the way his brain was wired before he was even born. This child is not a problem. This child, just like the millions of others like him, does not need to change. What we expect of him, however, does.

03.01.2022 Raising awareness about a little known learning disability - Dyscalculia. It's not just being 'bad at maths'. It is so much more. Check out the facts!

03.01.2022 Thank you to all my students who have chosen to come back to tutoring this term. I am looking forward to working with you all again. I currently have one session left in my after school timetable. Bring on the love of learning in 2020.
