I help learners overcome barriers to success. I specialise in working with students to identify ways in which they find it easiest to learn, so that they can achieve better results and develop a more positive approach to learning.

Many people go through life without ever taking two steps which can transform the way they learn: identifying the inner and external factors which are obstacles to their success and then learning the strategies that will help them surmount them.

I work with individuals, but I am also available to run Performance Coaching seminars for teachers as well as for groups of learners of all ages. I’m also happy to work one-to-one with parents and teachers who are exploring ways in which they can make learning more accessible to children as well as to adult learners.

I have run Study Skills sessions for many years but I’m now offering more than you might expect, if you think you’ve been there, had that. I have long had an interest in positive psychology and in how we can build positive emotion in a learning environment. Based on my study of positive psychology and on what I have learnt about learning, I have developed resources to help learners reflect on and review their learning more successfully. Currently I’m applying Visible Thinking in my work with adult learners, and developing resources to help them to make their thinking ‘visible’.

I also welcome opportunities to support employers, who are seeking advice on making ‘reasonable adjustments’.

It's never too late to 'turn the tables' – you'll be impressed at how soon you can master new learning strategies and approach learning with confidence!
