Tutoring and educational assessments - now available for 2023
Having left classroom teaching (after 20 years...oh my goodness), I am now operating full-time as 'Square Pegs Learning and Assessment Ltd' at my new private practice rooms in Avondale.
I will be:
* specialist tutoring 1-1 in person and online (over 20 years' experience - Years 3 to 13...all subject areas, and remedial Maths and reading and writing)
* offering block workshops on targeted areas like Executive Functioning Skills (planning, organisation and working memory etc,) and junior and senior NCEA curriculum subjects (English, Maths, Science and Social Studies etc)
* doing educational psychological assessments for dyslexia and other specific learning differences
* and parent/whānau upskilling webinars and blogs.
I am now opening my books for limited spaces in the above services.
References are available, and all introductory conversations are welcomed.
Please either message me here, or email me at tanyasquarepegs@gmail.com. Alternatively, you can text me on 022 308 6275.
Waiting lists in Auckland for tutoring and assessments can be up to a year long! This is the perfect time of year to set up the expert and individualised support for your child, addressing their needs, strengths and interests.
Warm regards everyone :)

Caroline Bartle, Ryman’s Dementia Care and Innovations Lead, says that using appropriate language when referring to people with Alzheimer’s and other types of dementia can foster a more inclusive society. This not only benefits those experiencing cognitive decline but also their families and the wider community.
