GOING THE EXTRA MILE! ๐ซ
At Fly High Tutors, our success rate is not dependent on our students’ starting points. We never refuse a child because it might be a challenge to get them to a certain goal which sadly is very prominent in our industry.โจ
The love and care that we feel for each child is all we need to help them to reach their full potential because we will put our all into these kiddos.
We know that you want your children to be successful, and we're here to make sure it happens!๐โ

Here is one of our Fly High Superstars, Rae, taking part in an interactive game in just her second 30min lesson.
This just shows the fantastic progress that Rae has made over such short time and the confidence she gained! She was starting Reception with no Nursery or playgroup experience.
We're all so proud of how this little one has grown during her very short time here!

Anti-bullying week is a time of reflection and action.
This year, we're focusing on "Reach Out" as a theme. Reach out to friends, family, and anyone that you think you can lend a hand to or want to take some time to share your own hardships with.
๐ If you feel like you need support, have any questions, or just need a well-being chat at any point, our door is always open for children and parents likewise.
We hope you have a lovely week and don't forget to check up on your little ones! :)

To feel confident accessing trickier topics, we can work on fluency & speed. ๐
This can be done in fun and competitive ways...
We have a fun game called Beat The Timer! How many times tables can you do in 3 minutes? How many adjectives can you get down in 3 minutes? Just a couple of the many topics we use for Beat The Timer!
We have some favourited sand-timers - our students go crazy for them - check them out on our shop! https://www.flyhightutors.co.uk/store/

Why Fly High Tutors was born... ๐ก
๐ Located in Ealing, West London...
We believe that all children should have access to high quality tutoring, that's why our tutors are fully qualified primary school teachers. ๐
At school, we found it very difficult, as we lacked the authority & ability to go the extra-mile for each child, with the emphasis being on the number of students in a class. It still blows our minds that our education system has brought us to this. ๐คฏ
Now we get to ensure that every student gets the time and attention they need to fully succeed! ๐
A safe and nurturing environment is at the forefront of our aim, the emotional and social development of our students through collaborative learning and building meaningful and trustworthy relationships. ๐ค
#FlyHigh #Tutoring #Education #London
MIGHT YOUR CHILD NEED A LITTLE EXTRA TUITION THIS SCHOOL YEAR? ๐
We'd love nothing more than to help more children meet their full potential using our carefully thought through methods of support:
โญ Face-to-face classes
โญ Online zoom classes
โญ Our very own textbooks and learning resources... ๐
๐To find out more please visit https://www.flyhightutors.co.uk/ ๐

How many times in a day have you heard your little one say ‘I can’t!’ โ
The power of yet shows our little ones that although something may seem difficult and frustrating at first, we all have the power to improve and persevere! ๐ช
๐ฏA good way to integrate the power of yet is to identify where your child is using the word ‘can’t’. All you need to do is add the word ‘yet’ on the end and you’re there!
I can’t ride a bike…yet!
I can’t do subtraction…yet!
I’m not good at this…yet!
Teaching your little ones how powerful this tiny word can be will go a long way to moulding the superheroes you want to send out to the world! ๐ฆธโ๏ธ
So start adding ‘yet’ to your ‘can’t’ and watch the magic unfold! ๐

Parents are always coming to us with concerns that the goals they have for their child are too big. Be it 11+, SATs or even learning how to ride a bike, no goal is impossible for a child to achieve! ๐
Here are some simple ways you can make big goals more achievable!
๐ฅ
Let your child identify what the goal is. What do your children like to do? What do they see as their next step? Pushing them to achieve goals that they are not interested in themselves can put stress on them as well as yourself.
โ๏ธBreak the goal down into achievable chunks so that they can take small steps day by day. If they want to improve on their reading, let them read a pre-determined and agreed amount of pages or chapters ๐ (instead of giving them the whole book to finish!)
๐จ๐ฉ๐ง๐ฆTell them stories about how you achieved certain goals; maybe when you were their age you spent all summer โ๏ธ learning how to do a backflip and you didn't give up, and that moment was so worth it!! This will motivate them and help them recognise what happens when they try! Encourage the fact that it’s not easy and non-competitive between your experiences and their own.
๐Celebrate the little wins!!! When a goal is achieved, make a big deal about it. Go spend some quality time with your child - go out to park or see the newest Disney movie! Celebrating a child’s accomplishments can help them feel that they have done something worthwhile. We get our little superstars ๐ to choose a prize from the prize box if they’ve reached their goal purely off of effort! ๐

Thinking of getting a tutor for your child but not sure if it’s worth the time, money and effort?
To be really honest and frank, it’s not always the best step. โ Sometimes, it’s a complete waste. However, I genuinely think that’s only the case with really traditional methods of tuition, where children have concepts drilled into them like robots, which is all superficial knowledge ๐ค and are forced into boring settings that put them off of the idea of learning altogether! ๐คข
With that being said, from experience and what I would actually want for my own child, if the boxes below are ticked, I can confidently say it is worth it and can have massive effects on a child’s confidence, progress and even overall sense of self-worth!
I recommend tuition wholeheartedly if:
๐ It is with somebody the child feels safe and comfortable with
๐ The focus is on effort and understanding, not memorisation and ability to recall facts that they don’t understand
๐ Children are given the chance to develop other learning skills like problem-solving through play
๐คช It is fun and engaging, not repetitive worksheets
๐ฃ You are included and made aware of your child’s progress rather than having to guess at what/how your child is being taught
๐ Your child enjoys themselves and develops a love for learning!!
๐โ๏ธ We pride ourselves on the fact we ACTUALLY help our students of all ages- even as little as 3 year olds!! ๐ฉ๐ป๐ซ

This is a question we get a lot and our answer may surprise you! ๐ฎ
It seems counterproductive- but the truth is that the more proficient your child is in their mother tongue, the easier it will be for them to speak English!
Research has shown that bilingualism supports children’s literacy, numeracy and critical thinking skills! ๐ง
This is why, when students and parents are making language choices, wherever possible, we encourage them to choose their mother tongue!
To support your child’s language development, you can:
๐ฃ Talk to them in your first language at home and encourage your little ones to do the same.
๐ Try getting books in your mother tongue and read to them!
๐ถ Have fun singing traditional songs and poems and try teaching your little ones these nursery rhymes in their home language too!
Please DM us if you have any suggestions or questions and we’ll be happy to help! ๐

๐จBRAIN BREAK! ๐ง
๐ญImagine this scenario: you’re working with your child and they’re slumped in their chair, complaining that they are tired and lacking motivation! ๐ค
Well we’ve been there and one way to combat this is a brain break!
Short brain breaks have been shown to helps kids focus and become less frustrated.
Here are some things to remember:
โณMake sure that you have clearly set how long the break is going to last for and your child understands that when the break is over, it’s learning time! โ๏ธ
โฑIt needs to be short, snappy and include a lot of movement! ๐โ๏ธ
๐บMake sure it’s centred around what your little one likes! It could be running on the spot, jumping jacks etc. Our Fly High Superstars love Just Dance! ๐ถ
Now, get up and boogie!!!๐
#teachersofinstagram#learning#tuition#teachers#brainbreak#dancing#mentalhealth
Take a look at our new tutor! ๐
We love to encourage our children to ‘teach’ the class.
This is so beneficial in building confidence, deepening their understanding and fostering that love for learning. โค๏ธ
We love that Max is using important vocabulary such as place value to help model to his classmates how to work out a sum! Fantastic job!!! โญ๏ธ
Have a go with your little ones! Get them to teach you a topic and let us know in the comments how much you’ve learnt from them.๐
#learning#tuition#ealing #teachersofinstagram #school
“How could they not know the answer to that question….?”, “We have practised this so many times…?” Or “How could they forget to punctuate their sentences…?” ๐คจ
These are all valid questions that our parents have come to us with! So, how can you help your child reduce careless mistakes? ๐คท๐ฝโ๏ธ
1. Go over/edit work together before it is formally checked. โ
We like our little ones to think of editing as the final checkpoint before work is marked.
In many cases, children are not aware of how to independently look over their work so this is a good opportunity to show them how to do so and make it a routine activity. We have a writing checklist available on our website to help with this systematic step-by-step- routine.
2. If they continue making the same mistake, then it might be a case of them not fully understanding a task or topic. Of course they’ll muddle things up if they’re trying to be a robot and follow steps with no understanding! ๐ค Try to take some time to re-explain these concepts they struggle with. ๐ง
3. Praise and reward them when they show good effort as this will encourage pride in their learning and stop only worrying about getting the right answers. They should be more concentrated on putting in the best effort to develop confidence and a deeper understanding. ๐
Let us know if these were helpful and please check out our website for resources and teaching vids to help you! ๐

Who said learning was boring?๐
This is such a simple and effective way of learning conjunctions! ๐
All you need to do is:
- Make a cube net
- Write different conjunctions on each side and go through how to use them.
- Start playing! โถ๏ธ
Simply start the sentence off and then throw the dice! Whatever conjunction it lands on, your little one finishes the sentence using that conjunction!
The sillier the sentence, the better! ๐คก
Give it a go and comment how your child found it!

We know our kids can spend 2 hours playing Roblox, but 2 seconds doing their homework! ๐
So why not combine the two? Games can be a powerful tool in motivating and engaging children as well as developing key learning skills! ๐ฎ
Here are some easy, simple ways you can turn turning everyday learning into fun games:
Tic-Tac-Toe โ๏ธ
Everyone loves this game! The twist is that students have to answer a question correctly/use the strategy you’d like them to grasp in order to place their mark on the board! Make it more interesting by having each player choose the symbol they draw, e.g a lion.
Roll A Dice ๐ฒ
Rolling dice is the easiest way to turn learning into a game! Roll a dice and answer a question. Each player keeps track of the points they roll. Simple, but trying to collect the most points is motivating and sneaks in some more maths practise too! ๐
Have fun with this and let us know any ways you make learning fun for your little ones! ๐ฏ

As it was recently our birthday ๐, we just wanted to take the time to reflect on all the goals we’ve been able to reach this year! ๐ซ
We’re proud to share a few of our pillars as we think this is what makes us that little bit more unique and helps us get those fantastic results like the 100% 7* and 11+ success rate! โบ๏ธ
The three key pillars that build the foundation of our centre are:
๐
Enrichment, ๐ nurture and ๐ง understanding.
Here’s how we make sure to embed these pillars to help develop children’s learning and overall wellbeing:
Enrichment
๐
Parties to celebrate different festivals and special days
๐
Our Summer magical makers club where children were able to apply their work creatively
๐
Dance breaks so children are less overwhelmed and ready to learn
๐
Extra curricular links
๐
Discuss world celebration and events
๐
writing and maths competitions
๐
Outdoor learning which allows children to see concepts in different contexts
Nurture
๐ Prizes to reward good effort over correct answers
๐ We care about our children and make sure they know through our discussions about their lives
๐ Displays that reflect children’s interest and centring lessons around this
๐ Lessons are differentiated to meet each child’s individual needs so that the learning is less overwhelming
๐ We focus hugely on children’s self esteem and self confidence!
Understanding
๐ง Summer booster clubs
๐ง Range of resources to support children’s learning
๐ง Problem solving and reasoning in every lesson to deepen children’s understanding
๐ง Revisiting and revising concepts so children are always building on their learning
๐ง Emphasis on the understanding rather than memorisation of topics
We’re passionate about your children’s learning and believe that any child can achieve anything they set their mind to! They just need to be believed in. ๐งก
Please get in touch with any questions you may have and we will be happy to help! ๐
#teachersofinstagram #ealing #birthday #anniversary #tuition #learning #tutors
To all those people that keep telling us to go home earlier and get a life! ๐๐คช
(We do understand why this is a common question by the way).
but...
This is our passion!! ๐ฅฐ
We genuinely have nothing but love for the children that we get the chance to work with and want to do all we can to help them succeed and feel joy while doing so.
Of course, we also loved our students at school. Unfortunately, it was just too heartbreaking to want to do it all for a child but not having the authority or told that we couldn’t afford to since the numbers are the important part. Still blows my mind that our education system has brought us to this. ๐คฏ
Now, we get to give our all and make sure every child knows and feels their worth- and the numbers come naturally with it! ๐คฉ
Just look at the smiles on our page- we get to be greeted with this daily.
๐ BEST. JOB. EVER. ๐ฅณ
Nobody can convince me otherwise. ๐

It was Internet Safety Day on Tuesday and that’s exactly what we’ve been discussing this week! ๐ป๐ฌ
๐คDo you know what your children do when they’re using the internet?
๐งDo they know the rules of interacting with strangers on the internet?
๐ญDo you think they’re spending too much time on their devices?
These are all really important conversations to be having with your little ones since we all know there are massive benefits in using our devices in the right way. ๐ค What we’ve noticed is, sometimes they know the rules but haven’t really considered how to apply this to the games they’re playing etc.
Nevertheless, we have been super impressed with how our students have began thinking responsibly and even started creating their own sets of rules! ๐

๐ฅณ Reading Week continues! ๐
A lot of the parents we work with tell us that their children don’t engage with books and just hate reading time! ๐คฏ
As teachers, this is one of the saddest things to hear since we get SO much out of reading, without even realising.
What we tend to hear is that reading time is stressful, testing your patience and just not benefitting the child. In fact, they’ve grown to dislike books or throw a tantrum at the idea of giving it a go themselves! Does this sound like reading time with your little one? ๐
Here’s a few things to remember:
Reading is such a vital skill that is even known to help skill development in other areas of the curriculum, including maths! ๐งฎ So, we want to make this a time that children are drawn towards or are waiting desperately for.
๐Once they start to find a love for reading, it’s also an escape place: a break from everything else they may be worried or tired of in their daily routines.
It’s important that we adults don’t forget that children also stress and feel anxiety or pressure in the things they do. ๐ง Pressure to read, making it exhausting and boring through choice of books or through losing your patience can just make them associate that negative, stressful feeling with texts and affect their mental health in the worst way.
We’ll be doing a post soon with tips on how to create this safe space around reading so stay tuned. ๐
๐ Is there anything that you find particularly challenging/helpful at home? Let us know so that we can share/ help! ๐๐

๐ We’re so proud to share some of the exciting things these children had been getting up to over our summer mornings! ๐บ๐ท๐ข

Hope our Fly High family had a lovely half term! ๐โ๏ธ
We’re back and getting practical in the classroom! Check out our intense line hunt and colourful creations all during maths! ๐
A lot of the maths curriculum requires for you to learn the vocab involved and it can be a challenge when there’s so many new words involved! ๐ฌ
e.g. Just to describe *lines* in year 3, they’ve got to understand and use the new words:
โ๏ธ vertical
↔๏ธ horizontal
๐ค parallel
๐จ perpendicular
and that’s a very small fraction of the geometry vocab! ๐คฏ
So, we like to explicitly teach and then... practise in context! It’s fun, it’s memorable and they get to really challenge their understanding of some terms- try it out!
How many vertical and horizontal lines can you find in the room you’re sat in? ๐ต๐ฝ
๐
Can you create any picture you like through using 4 horizontal lines and 3 vertical lines as your starting point? ๐จ
Let us know how you get on!

Never stop being curious! ๐ง
One thing that I love about teaching is the random questions that children ask at the most odd times. The “Why do dogs eat almost anything?” to the “Did people make Paw Patrol?” to “Are you married?” ๐๐ฝโ๏ธ๐๐ผโ๏ธ
These questions are usually really entertaining but are also so easy to brush off as unimportant! Especially when you’re learning about something completely different- balance is key. ๐
Something that I definitely learnt while teaching at school is that every โจspark of curiosity โจ leads to new (relevant) learning and you never know what passion that might ignite within the child who’s asked or that has listened in to the conversation!
Plus, the ridiculousness of some of these questions are great for a bit of a laugh and stress relief! ๐
What are the weirdest things you’ve been asked by a child?
๐งฎ Arrays!
Look at this little genius using arrays to help him work out missing number problems! ๐คฉ
I love love love using arrays for teaching the relationship between multiplication and division! โ๏ธโ
What’s important for me is to make sure that children really understand:
๐ต What an array is ๐ค
๐ด Which groups can be found within an array and how this relates to โ๏ธand โ
e.g. 6 x 5 = 6 groups of 5, which leads me onto...
๐ฃ๐ฌ Vocab to show that they understand what each number in a problem represents!! So important for when they start to tackle word problems and application of their times tables and divisions!
You can take a look at how this helps Carlos work out his missing number problem! ๐
๐ง Using this technique has helped our little ones really grasp: the inverse relationship, missing number problems, fluency in their times tables (as they now know how to work them out when they get stuck), development in their vocabulary and overall understanding of the concept (needed for word problems) and CONFIDENCE in multiplication and division!! ๐
๐ค So proud of how everyone at Fly High is getting on and congratulations again to this superstar for bringing me a new Gold Slip from school to each of our lessons!! ๐ฅณโญ๏ธ
Let us know if there’s any particular concepts you’d like some guidance with teaching! ๐๐ฉ๐ป๐ซ

In the spirit of World Book Day, we have celebrated... Book Week! ๐๐ฅณ
Our little ones have really impressed us with their fab comprehension skills and we’ve had a blast reading books that have helped us with our writing and- of course- inspire a love for reading! ๐
Which books have you read this week? Any to recommend? ๐
Check out the new page on our website! ๐คฉ
www.flyhightutors.co.uk/RecommendedReading
Loads of our parents have been asking for book recommendations and we thought: why not share this with everybody else? ๐
Have a browse through the page (we will be updating it frequently with more books and more year groups) and let us know if you’d like us to check out any other texts!
These are some of our favourites, split into 4 categories for your ease:
๐ Love for learning!
โ๏ธ Fiction texts
๐ช Non-fiction texts
โ๏ธ Challenging reads
Let us know if you’d like any other support or guidance and let us know if you check any of these out! ๐
Stay tuned for our next post, celebrating book week, where some of these texts were enjoyed by our little ones! ๐คฉ
โ๏ธ Times Table Tennis ๐พ
Some of you may have seen our previous post about Ninja Maths โ๏ธ being a fun way for children to gain some fluency in their times tables. Here is another gem! ๐
๐ธ Times table tennis can help with building fluency and confidence in so many other areas, as well as times tables.
โ e.g. I use this as a starter for teaching children to add and subtract through partitioning! (Adding 10s from numbers like 6 - 6, 16, 26... and back!) โ
We’re always using methods of teaching that help break up written learning time- these can re-engage your child and get them back on task, while actually acting as a really useful method of learning!
๐ Let us know if you use this for your little ones! ๐
Have fun and good luck to all of the kiddos going back to school next week! โ๏ธ
Any parents of gamer-children, here? ๐ฎ
We get asked a lot about how to get children to focus on their learning, when all they’re interested in are their games! There are obviously many factors to this but usually, the problem tends to be that the student finds their learning boring and they’d much rather avoid anything to do with the topic.
๐ก TOP TIP: don’t be afraid to base your child’s learning around their interests! ๐
It seems so basic but honestly, makes a huge difference! Whether that means their learning is based around the theme or they have a picture/code breaker, which may be related to their hobbies.
Ideas for Roblox fans:
๐ท Money- Work in Robux currency.
Geometry- Sort the Roblox items into a Carroll Diagram. ๐ต๐บ๐ธ
โ Division- Themed problems e.g. The area of Bloxburg is 24m squared but has to be shared equally between 5 characters. How much space will each character be able to use?
๐ Diary Entries- Write about your best day in role of a Roblox character. e.g. Which themed room did you visit? How did you feel in that moment?
Creative Writing ๐จ๐ฝ๐จ- Create your own Roblox adventure e.g. Somebody has been sucked into the game and needs to find their way out! ๐๐ฟ
There are countless ways to do it and this can be done for any hobby- it works and will inspire children to put more effort into their learning (since it seems relevant, now!) ๐
โ๏ธ
Have you tried any of these tricks?
๐ Let us know if you’d like any examples or inspiration for engaging your little ones!
๐คฉ So excited for our creative writing lesson (£3) for a small year 6 group- still some spaces!! Book your space and let your friends know! ๐
What make us constantly go above and beyond?
๐ Our students
๐ฉ๐ป๐ซ Our passion for teaching
๐ Parents that are SO supportive
๐ช All of the progress that each of our little ones make from day to day!
Hope everyone had a lovely half term and can’t wait to get back to it, tomorrow! ๐ฅณ
**There are still spaces for our £3 Lessons**
Don’t forget to book your place and share with a friend! ๐คฉ
