I hope this is the correct place to post this. I just wanted to thank Johnnies Cafe, Lordship Lane for delivering food four times a week to my vulnerable 89 year old mother during these difficult times. Always happy to spend time when delivering and listen to her. Not only giving her food she enjoys but cheering her up and breaking the monotony of her day. I am so grateful. Thank you.

Hi, There are still 2 places left on the course next week 21/10 - 24/10. It will be held at Goodrich School, Dunstans Road, SE22. If you would like more information you can contact me on 07736400658.

Hi, I am Gill and have been running Up-a-Level Tutor Club since 1997. I will be running an 11 plus intensive course from 21st - 24th October for year 6 children looking to take 11 plus entrance exams in January. Previous children have received offers, won full and partial scholarships to many independent schools within the Dulwich area. More information can be found www.up-a-level.co.uk. If you are interested and would like more information please send me a private message or email me on [email protected]

Hello, I run Up-a-Level Tutor Club and will have a space in my year 5 group on Mondays from 9th September.

Following requests I will now be available for lessons each Monday and Saturday throughout July and August. If you would like me to help your primary aged child with maths, English, VR, NVR or preparation for 11+ tests I would be happy to help.

I will be running an 11 plus intensive summer course 29th July - 1st August. I have been providing specialised preparatory tutoring for year 5 children looking to take the 11 plus exam to gain a place at either a grammar or independent school for many years. Previous children have received offers from Kent and Sutton grammar schools, won full and partial scholarships to many schools within the Dulwich area.

I have been asked to run an 11+ course in the October half term preparing for the private school entrance exams in January. I am just putting out feelers to see if anyone is interested in their year 6 children attending.

Thanks

But I am entering "11+ Course" should I have put "course 11+" ?

I have posted an ad re an 11+ course I will be running in October and it does not appear when '11+ course' is entered into search. Have I done something wrong?

How awful, thank you for posting this warning. Let's hope it is a one off

I have been asked to run an 11+ course in the holidays for children taking exams in September and January. Is anyone interested?

Thank you very much - just wanted to check.

Does anyone know the rules and regulations regarding garden fences? If so which way round should the fence panel go?

I don't think it is as it is half term

How do they leave their children (the most precious things they will ever have) with someone they are not happy with?

Thank you for your suggestions - I will be holding them in the Cadet Hut next to JAPS

I am considering running 11+ mock exams on the 2nd January which we will be marked and then on the 3rd January I will work through them with the children discussing the problems and exam technique. This is slightly different to my previous courses due to lack of classroom availability over the Christmas period. Would this be of interest to anyone? Any thoughts/ideas welcome.

I hear that Rebecca at Monkey Music is very good.

I have tutored quite a few boys who have made the journey. At first I had concerns as the Autumn term is long and it gets dark early but they soon made friends with other boys of all ages and thoroughly enjoyed the journey.

I tutor from home and feel that it can be detrimental for children to have extra lessons if they are not eager. Everyone has stages where they are really interested in something then lose interest. If you son is a high achiever (even if he was an average achiever) he can enjoy maths in an informal setting, it is not necessary for him to have extra lessons. There are many maths concepts that children can gain through playing. Make it a game - in the garden if each flower has ten petals how many petals do you think there could be on 4 flowers? When going up or down stairs count is 2's, 5's 10's , every now and again say '25 so how many steps do you think we have come up?' How far do you think it is to the end of the garden? Let's measure it together. Make sure you guess with him and obviously get some right but get some wrong and laugh about it. It is important that you are relaxed and make it fun. Just every so often ask a question if he is keen then a little later ask another but do not over do it. Children learn best when they are having fun, keep him wanting more. Good luck

Thank you grish and Dun it is very nice of you to recommend me. My e mail has changed it is now [email protected]
