In everything we do we believe in our client's ability.

We believe in their ability to challenge their status quo.

We believe in doing things differently.

Have you ever wondered why some children, when reading,

miss out or change the short words such as

should, would, could, in. on, the, but, and, so, what, where how, when, why etc?

You might enjoy watching this . . .

Do you know someone . . .

who has difficulty with reading?
who has difficulty remembering their spellings a week later?
or who has difficulty getting their thoughts down on paper?
whose challenges are stopping their promotion at work?

or, who when they read, can change, swap or completely miss out the short words - “in, on, the, but, and , so, what, where, when, why, who, how, if, should, would, could . . “ Telling you the story rather than reading it?
who if they have a task involving 5 steps will have difficulty ?
who goes up stairs and then forgets what they went up for?
or to whom you are always asking “why did you do that?” and they reply “I don’t know really” ?
always being told “you just don't think"- “think before you act”?
who believes they'll never be good at times tables or maths?
who struggles with English but is fine a second language?
who finds it hard to focus their attention . . .

. . . until watching TV or a computer game?

And how can we take control of these?

What is the interdependence of emotions, beliefs and behaviours?

How can we master processes run consciously and sub-consciously?

What part does 'neuroplasticity' play in all of this?

Just try this out for interest

Do you know children who learn their spellings but a week later they have forgotten them - test you children now on last week's spellings.
Or ask them to spell

remember, February, Wednesday,
here (as in 'in here'), there (as in 'out there'), where (as in 'where are we going'), their (as in their ball') and they're (as in they are coming for dinner'),
thorough, excitement, encyclopedia
now try to spell these words in reverse & ask adults too

Ask them some maths

8 x 7 = , 6 divided by 3 = , 9 divided by 9 =

Try some reading

see if they skip out or swap the short words (almost like they are telling rather than reading the story),
or they might change the endings of the words so kicked becomes kicking for instance
or put the subtitles on the TV for their favourite film or tv programme and see if they can keep up.

Do you know individuals who find it hard to stay focussed on the task in hand or literally to sit still?

For individuals of all ages who have faced a difficult early life, their emotional scars have prevented them being who they truly can be. An above average number have literacy and numeracy challenges - you can help them realise their dream.

50% of individuals entering the armed forces have a literacy and numeracy level below an 11 year old. What happens when they retire from active service and would you like to be able to support our heroes?

Could I earn a living?

In short - yes. Both financially and emotionally rewarding.

9 million adults and 3 million children in the UK face challenges.

And the national strategy for literacy and numeracy in schools is scrapped from this January 2011 and they are free to invest locally in you.

If you wish to work with Private clients typically you will meet for 2 appointments - and they will be so impressed they become a walking advertisement for you and your business - telling friends, colleagues, family and their children's school about you. 1 in 5 people in the UK currently face challenges.

Some of you will be interested in how to confidently run training programmes in schools and businesses. Since publishing the book 'Seeing Spells Achieving' Andrew has gone on to research the neuroplasticity and emotions / beliefs and behaviours and design a training programme which can be delivered in schools for teachers, pupils and parents. Not just on the content but how best to deliver it in practise, to stage it. You can now do this 1-to-1 and with groups - click here for more

In business the demand has never been greater and business leaders are asking why they have a mounting workforce who they are required to train - click here for more

And in your training you have the option of designing your business plan and learning how you can collaborate with us.

Can you think of a more rewarding way to invest your time?

School Programmes

Read here the feedback from Anne Heywood, the Head Teacher

from a school who recently invested in the program.

"After one week, all but six children achieved full marks in their

spelling test. The remaining six children scored 8 or 9 out of ten.

Four children had never before achieved full marks in a spelling

test in their whole school career. This was a truly remarkable

change.

Then in the second week, ALL children achieved 100% in their

spelling test."

"The positive attitude emanating from this classroom is palpable!"

"The impact of your methods speaks for itself and your knowledge

and professionalism are truly inspiring to pupils and parents."

"Introducing your learning methods has led to the most rapid

improvement in attitude (and spelling accuracy!) that I have ever

seen."
