The Phonics Fox® - Central Cornwall

Hello! I’m Kate and I’m excited to be bringing The Phonics Fox® classes to Cornwall.

​

I am an experienced primary teacher, having taught for almost twenty years across Early Years, Key Stage 1 and Key Stage 2. I have experience of leading Early Years across a school and nursery for ten years and also spent time as phonics lead.

​

There are many things I love about working with young children: giving them the skills to be confident and independent learners, immersing ourselves in stories and being part of those lightbulb moments when children are learning to read. I feel like teaching a child to read is like giving them a gift which opens up an exciting and powerful world. 

I also love the idea of empowering parents and carers to be able to effectively support their child in their journey towards becoming a reader and a writer.

​

I am a firm believer in hands on learning and developing the whole child. I think The Phonics Fox® classes offer a brilliant balance between fun, creativity and learning, catering for a range of needs.
