Learning support for families

Helping children feel proud of how their brains work.

Hi, I'm Becky. If learning seems harder for your child than it looks for everyone else, I understand - I've been there myself. I offer practical resources for home and in-person literacy and numeracy tutoring for families in Peregian Springs and surrounding areas.

About me

Why I started Confident Brains

I started Confident Brains because I know how it feels when learning is harder than it seems to be for everyone else.

Being dyslexic myself, I had to discover strategies that worked for me - tools I began developing in secondary school and still use today.

Through my own experience and my work as a teacher, I wanted to help children recognise their strengths, find ways to approach challenges and grow in confidence.

Confident Brains brings that together: practical support for children and parents, with the goal of helping each child become a more independent learner who feels proud of how their brain works.

In-person tutoring

Literacy and numeracy, one child at a time.

I see children in person in Peregian Springs, supporting families in Peregian Springs and surrounding areas with literacy and numeracy. If you're feeling unsure about your child's reading, spelling or maths, you're not alone. I'll take the time to understand your child's needs and talk through next steps honestly.

How it works

Supporting your child from initial concerns to growing confidence in literacy and numeracy.

Initial consultation

A 30-minute conversation to understand your child's needs.

Tell me about your child - what you've noticed, any previous assessments, and your goals. This is a relaxed, no-pressure conversation to see how I can support you.

Understanding your child's starting point

Together, we identify where your child needs support with literacy or numeracy.

For literacy, I assess phonological awareness, phonics, reading accuracy, fluency, and spelling. I'll talk with you about your child's strengths, challenges and learning goals so we know where to begin.

Personalised tutoring

Literacy and numeracy support tailored to your child.

Sessions focus on your child's learning needs, with structured literacy methods for reading and spelling support. Sessions are 55 minutes, delivered weekly or twice weekly, in-person.
