From Bright to Brilliant

Do these scenarios sound familiar?

• Your child is capable but lacks the writing strategies to score highly. 
• You’re worried your child’s potential is drowning in a crowded classroom, progress is stagnant and the clock is ticking!
• You’re not entirely sure how to help your child overcome their frustrations with writing and it’s breaking your heart.
• Your child has become hyper sensitive about the hard time they’re having with their writing and you sense their reluctance to share what they’re doing with you. 

If so, firstly, you’re by no means alone – many parents feel the same way, and secondly, it’s no wonder this is a familiar experience for so many families! 

I mean, let’s face it, unless you’re specifically trained in exam level English vocabulary and Creative Writing, how else are you supposed to know exactly how to support your child with their creative writing? 

It’s a minefield fraught with frustration and uncertainty! 

Well, just imagine…the end results….

• Receiving offer letters from your top-choice schools.
• Accepting an offer from your favourite school.
• Seeing the culmination of a valuable investment in your child’s education.
• Feeling a sense of joy and pride, knowing your child will have the opportunity to attend a school that aligns with your values and
• The self-assurance to continue their success in their academic journey.

It’s entirely possible, and it can happen without the tears and stress!

Now, you may be thinking ‘what if my child is just not a naturally creative writer?’ Perhaps your child is gifted in maths and the sciences and you might wonder if they’re just more ‘left brain’ orientated…Rather than ‘right brain’ creative…

The truth is, every single child has a natural gift for storytelling.  It’s inbuilt within all of us!! 

The real problem that your child is struggling has nothing to do with their abilities as a creative writer, and everything to do with the widespread, outdated teaching and tutoring methods.

All schools face the same limitations in the learning environment: time constraints in class, peer pressure, a lack of resources for individual growth and too little time to think and develop ideas.

Children can be lost in such environments they’re offered challenges in class but then lack the time to think, and develop their ideas, which knocks their confidence and stunts their creativity.

However, if you’re like most parents I know,  you have careers and multiple commitments to juggle (not to mention the fact that your left eye is still twitching from the whole stressful homeschooling taster experience you had during the Covid-19 lock-down!)

Which is where I come in. 

Hi, my name is Clare Lloyd, The founder of Creative Hare, and my seminal Bright to Brilliant™ Programme for 10+ and 11+ exam success.

After teaching in some of London’s top independent schools, I became a full time private English tutor, helping children to grow a love of creative writing and storytelling.

I support ambitious, forward-thinking parents to help their child achieve wild creative writing confidence for exam success. Unlocking your child’s highest potential by empowering their creative expression, confidence and joy!
