"My daughter, Charlotte’s reading and spelling has been hugely helped by Miranda and the Hands On Teaching Programme. She enjoys her weekly session and looks forward to them. The Programme is well designed, the exercises are well explained and easy to follow. I am sure Charlotte would not have made the progress she has without the help of Miranda and the Hands On Teaching Programme."

"When I first took my son to see Mandy at Hands on Teaching he thought he was "stupid", he was very low on confidence and was reluctant to read. He came out of his first session full of smiles and told me "It's alright that I struggle with spelling, Mandy is showing me how to do it and she's got really cool coloured pens to help too" He is now on his second Hands On Teaching booklet produced by Mandy and has learnt to break words down and use her methods in the class room too. He is now a much more confident 9 year old who no longer sees his spelling difficulty as a barrier to learning. Mandy has a lovely relaxed manner with children and I have since recommended her to others."
