Frequently Asked Questions
What services does This Child Can offer?
I offer three main services: one-to-one private tuition, specialist SEND tuition, and SEND family support. Each service is tailored to meet your child’s needs: whether that’s academic progress, personalised SEND support or guidance for you as a parent.
How do I know which service is right for my child?
If you’re unsure, I can help you decide. During a free consultation, we’ll talk through your child’s needs and your concerns, and I’ll recommend the most appropriate type of support.
Do you work with children outside the UK?
Yes. I work with families all over the world. My teaching is aligned with the British curriculum, but I adapt sessions to suit each child’s educational context and goals.
Do you only support children with SEND?
No. I work with children of all abilities. Some families come for general academic support, while others are looking for specialist SEND expertise. Both are fully supported within my services.
What ages do you work with?
I typically support primary and lower secondary-aged children, though depending on your child’s development level, I sometimes teach children outside of this range. If you are unsure whether my service is suitable for your child, feel free to get in touch and I will advise.
What happens in a free consultation?
The consultation is a relaxed, no-pressure conversation where we discuss your child, your goals and any concerns you may have. It’s an opportunity to ask questions and explore how I can help before making any commitment.
How does online tutoring work?
All sessions are delivered live, one to one, usually via Microsoft Teams or Zoom. This allows me to provide focused, personalised support in a familiar environment, wherever you are in the world.
What makes This Child Can different?
My approach combines over 20 years of teaching experience, SEND expertise and a strong focus on the whole child. I prioritise not just academic progress, but also confidence, wellbeing and a positive relationship with learning.
Is my child safe during online sessions?
With This Child Can, yes. I use secure, professional platforms and follow strict safeguarding practices. I am also criminal records checked and happy to provide documentation on request.
How do I get started?
The best first step is to book a free consultation. From there, we can put a clear, personalised plan in place to support your child.
