The ability to read is one of the most crucial skills a child learns at an early age.
When I was just 7 years old, my grandparents sat me down in the backroom of their house, flipping through our local newspaper. They were on a mission to find a tuition company that could help me catch up in both English and maths. That’s when they saw Kip McGrath Halifax. Little did I know that this decision would shape my educational journey for the next 11 years.
I vividly remember my first assessment at Kip McGrath. The tutors were warm and welcoming, and they quickly identified my areas of struggle. From that moment, I became a regular attendee, attending weekly lessons that would change my life.
As the years went by, I not only caught up but excelled. Here’s what Kip McGrath helped me achieve:
But Kip McGrath wasn’t just about academics. It instilled in me a belief in my abilities. The tutors genuinely cared about my progress, fostering an environment where I felt supported and motivated.
Inspired by my positive experiences, I pursued a degree in Primary Education (5-11) leading to Qualified Teacher Status (QTS). I wanted to make a difference. To provide children with the same opportunities that Kip McGrath had given me.
After university, I worked in primary schools, but my journey came full circle. I rejoined Kip McGrath, this time as a full-time team member. Now, I’m passionate about empowering children through education, just as I was empowered all those years ago.
