Episode Synopsis

The Realities of Tutoring — Triumphs, Challenges & Unexpected LessonsIn this episode, I’m sharing a deeply personal collection of stories from my years as a tutor — the lessons learned, the battles fought, and the beautiful breakthroughs that make it all worthwhile. From the lad who initially refused help and went on to achieve top grades, to the young girl who locked herself in the loo rather than have a lesson — these moments shaped my journey in ways I never expected.There’s laughter, frustration, and the occasional chewed-up Doc Marten, but above all, there’s the reminder that behind every child is a unique story waiting to be understood.Whether you're a tutor, a parent, or someone simply curious about the world of one-to-one education, this episode offers a warm and honest glimpse into the rollercoaster that is tutoring.An honest, funny, and at times emotional reflection on what it means to truly support children who learn differently.
