The Phonics Fox® - Ashby-de-la-Zouch

Hi, my name is Heather!

​

I am delighted to be part of The Phonics Fox® team and bring classes to Ashby-de-La-Zouch from October 2022. I will be introducing new classes into the Ibstock and Loughborough areas in the near future.

 

I am an experienced Primary School teacher and have spent 15 years teaching in schools. The majority of this time I worked in Reception class and I absolutely love being part of early years teaching.

 

I have a great passion for teaching early reading and phonics skills, and my teaching experience in early years has showed me the importance of encouraging a real love for reading and enjoyment of books in these early years of a child’s life. 

 

Reading is so important from an early age, making up a fundamental part of language development in early childhood. Reading also plays a crucial role for speech development.

 

Through The Phonics Fox® classes, I will endeavour to nurture your child’s love of reading. Drawing on the early years principles of learning through play, in my classes I hope to spark your child’s imagination, encourage their creativity and promote good communication skills.
