Why Our Approach Works

What We Can Do for You and Your Child

The best way to secure a bright future for your child is through learning and education. Your child's early years are crucial to their learning.

Most parents are unaware of many fun learning opportunities, tips and tricks that can transform their children into excellent learners.

If you have a child aged under 12, you can use our strategies to help them -

• Master Numeracy and Literacy skills,
• Master the process of 'learning' itself,
• Become enthusiastic about learning and
• Become a 'self sufficient learner'.

It won't feel like work, we'll show your how to achieve this through fun playful activities you do together at home.

EasyStreetLearning can help avoid or reduce the need for expensive private tuition services when your child is older. We also have a major advantage over private tuition... rather than use private tuition if your child falls behind, our aim is that your child does not fall behind in the first place.

Becoming dependent on a home tutor, or parent, for success has real disadvantages. At some point your child will have to work by themselves and this when problems can occur. A 'self sufficient learner' has strategies they use to help themselves master new skills, they are less dependant on others. That's why learning 'how to learn' is one of our main goals for your child.

Why it Works

There is something very important all parents should be aware of, something teachers know from classroom experience and research has proved.

A UNESCO report on 'Parents and Learning' puts it like this -
"Children do best in school when parents provide learning experiences as a regular part of family life"

We talk to parents a lot. We found that something was going wrong with this vital link in our children's learning. Many parents were trying to help their children but with limited success... some didn't know where to start, many had given up after several failed attempts.

However some parents clearly were succeeding - what were they doing and why were their children were doing so well ?

We also collected strategies used in schools by experienced teachers that were suitable for parents to use at home.

Parents told us that they found supporting their child's learning was like solving a maze.

The smart thing to do is to use a guide, this makes the journey a lot easier and saves you the trouble of getting lost.

Let us be your guide to help your child succeed in learning and help you avoid common pitfalls.

We've created easy to use 'Learning Tracks' made up of steps which tell you exactly how to best support your child's learning in ways that compliment what they do in school.

Each step describes fun 'hands-on' activities and games you do together. You progress step by step at your child's pace, using just a few minutes each day. Your child's skill levels will steadily improve.

Too good to be true? Well, you do need to make your child's learning a family priority but if you can do that for your child they will make real progress.

Our Learning Tracks are designed so you don't need to be great at Numeracy or Literacy to help your child, we'll show you exactly what to do.

Step by step, by following our carefully designed Learning Tracks you will help develop your child's confident skills not only in Numeracy and Literacy but also in 'how to learn'.

"Smart Learning"... Help Your Child Learn Through Play

The huge advantage parental support has over school is that parents can easily give their children opportunities to learn through play.

We've worked out ways you can help your child learn the Numeracy and Literacy skills they need through play and fun activities.

Learning through play has some natural advantages - it builds enthusiasm, social skills, concentration, discovery, understanding and confidence.

Play is also the perfect way to get essential practice in new skills.

Lastly, another major advantage of learning through play is that it avoids stress and a smile is never far away!

National Curriculum Coverage for Numeracy and Literacy

We have mapped out fun activities covering the National Curriculum for Numeracy and Literacy.

They don't require expensive props and with our Learning Tracks you certainly don't need to be a teacher (or a tutor) to help your child.

Don't Make This Mistake Preparing for Tests:

SATs, 11+ and Competitive Entrance Exams

If they can afford the expense, they may pay for private tuition to improve their child's Numeracy and Literacy skill levels so they can obtain a high enough score to get into the school of their choice.

Making learning a priority so late on is a big gamble - there may not be enough time to make the necessary improvements. It's also hugely stressful on the young child and parents. Rushed learning is less effective for building skills for the long term, it will not be enjoyable for the child - this won't build enthusiasm for future learning, and it's also very expensive.

We Have a Better Way to Prepare for Tests:

SATs, 11+ and Competitive Entrance Exams

This is our approach...

Make your child's learning a high family priority early on using our Learning Tracks to guide what you do with your child. Progress at your child's pace - only moving to the next step once they are confident with the last.

This ensures a steady progress so your child won't fall behind.

You will also build enthusiasm, concentration, memory, understanding and confidence.

For specific tests, use our TestBuster Guides to focus on the tests skills, including our TestBuster Essential Test Technique Guide.

Bringing Fun Active Learning into Your Home

Is the Key to Unlocking Your Child's Ability

Learning is as natural an activity as eating or drinking. Think of all the complex skills your child has mastered such as walking and talking.

As their parent you have the unique opportunity to guide your child's learning 'instinct' to master Numeracy and Literacy skills.

When you think about it, it makes a lot of sense... by making learning an fun normal part of your child's home life, naturally they will become better learners.

Help Your Child Become A Confident Learner

We go beyond the National Curriculum to show you how to nurture these key qualities in your child that will give them a positive learning attitude for life -

• Enthusiasm,
• Confidence,
• Being brave - children can be worried about failing and this can stop them learning,
• Deep understanding,
• Determination,
• Learning self-sufficiency,
• Memory skills,
• Exploit strategies for learning,
• Understand the relevance of what they learn,

We encourage use of their learning in practical day-to-day activities.

Learn from Others: Successes, Failures (and Solutions!)

We've spoken to a lot of people about childrens' learning. It took four years of talking to parents and teachers to build our Learning Tracks.

We've heard some amazing success stories from parents who have helped their children succeed and how the did it. We've included the best strategies in our Learning Tracks.

We also heard from some parents how their attempts to support their children's learning failed. All too often, it was because it would turn into a battle between parent and child. Please read our article on 'Practical Discipline Strategies That Work' (click here).

With EasyStreetLearning, you'll learn from the successes of other parents, learn how to avoid pitfalls along the way and when your encounter a problem you'll have several solutions to try.

We Show You How To Nurture Learning Self-Sufficiency

'Prevention is better than the cure' is a familiar saying which we all know to be true - the idea behind EasyStreetLearning is exactly the same. With EasyStreetLearning you'll help prevent your child falling behind in their learning in the first place. Be Smart Now And Avoid Stress for You And Your Child

We all want our children to have a bright future. Helping your child make the most of their education is the best way to achieve this.

We call it 'Smart Learning'... it ensures learning is done with a smile, good concentration and regular practice.

'Little And Often' is Better For Learning

With EasyStreetLearning we'll show you playful learning activities that you can do to make waiting for the bus fun.

You'll be able to slip the learning activities easily into your busy day.

Show The Practical Use What They Learn

Showing the practical use of what your child is learning can help them gain a deeper understanding.

It can really help with boosting their motivation for learning too.

Consider if in learning to drive you just sat in a classroom and just did theory of driving. It would be dull and in the back of your mind you would be rightly saying "but what's the point?" and quite rightly your brain would shut-off.

Our Learning Tracks Build Up Skills In Small Steps

With our 'Learning Tracks' you'll build up your child's skills in small steps.

For each step things are broken down into easy to understand chunks. This way your child's confidence grows steadily.

You can spend the time your child needs on each step.
