About the store
10 years working with complex children and families - I've taught, I've tutored, I've worked in specialist assistance roles to traumatised and neurodivergent learners. My teaching and tutoring has primarily been grades 5-10 level English and literacy, maths, and SEL - all my resources have been tried and tested by students! I primarily work in specialist trauma-informed education contexts, and with neurodivergent learners, so many of my resources are designed to support safety, inclusion, emotional regulation, executive functioning, memory, and independent work with just a little extra support such as scaffolding or visual sequencing.
