Let me tell you a bit about my experience and my approach to languages. I started learning foreign languages as a child and have been teaching them for more than twenty years; this has helped me see both ends of the process, as a learner and as a tutor. Over the years I experienced and witnessed those cycles of -unrealistic expectations, peaks of enthusiasm and, frequent frustration, which we all go through when learning a language. That got me thinking... Are languages too difficult? What are the learners' challenges? Is the teacher's method and approach relevant? So, after seeing people struggle, sometimes give up, and other times persevere and succeed, I decided to use my experience, i.e. what had worked in my teaching and in my learning and I founded LIVE TO LEARN LANGUAGES, where I create a space for all to harvest the emotional, cultural and intellectual rewards of learning a second language. Tutors who join our team us must all share the same passion and human qualities: dedication, patience and creativity; the latter being essential to explain grammar and develop activities that will exercise students' memory muscle enthusiastically. Together we promote not only language acquisition but also the culture where they come from, as this makes the process of learning far more engaging. We are a versatile team of teachers who work together and under the same criteria, putting in our biggest efforts to make your language learning a fulfilling and pleasurable experience.

Stone Farm Study Centre

Bridestowe

Stone Farm Study Centre is located on the edge of Dartmoor in the heart of the Devon countryside. Set in the foothills of the National Park, the site boasts 110 acres of organic park-land pasture and is an idyllic retreat for children to visit. Among 17th century listed buildings we have a traditional working farm where every morning and evening visiting groups can help with supervised farm jobs - complete with pigs, sheep, rabbits, guinea pigs, goats, alpacas, a donkey, a pony, 'Hedwig' the African eagle owl and resident sheepdog Baloo there really is something for everyone! Stone Farm also has its own onsite lake where, if lucky, the children will be able to spot local birdlife including ducks, geese, moorhen and kingfishers. When taking a nature walk in the adjoining woodland we often see deer, foxes and badgers. First established in 1992 by two former teachers, Stone Farm Study Centre has welcomed schools for 30 years and we understand the educational, physical and emotional benefits school visits offer. We have attempted to create a Study Centre which we would want to visit ourselves and an environment in which every child can flourish and grow. We work closely with every school to ensure our on-site activities, and the excursions you choose in the local area, incorporate and complement the curriculum of each year group. Set up specifically and exclusively for primary schools, we welcome KS2 groups from across the country for 3 or 4 night visits.

Bishop Stopford School

Northants

I would like to extend a warm welcome as you visit our website today. Bishop Stopford School is a vibrant, ethical place to learn. As our Outstanding SIAMS inspection report states, ‘Five deeply embedded, long-established, Christian values, which are relevant to everyone, create an ethos in which harmonious and respectful relationships enable everyone to flourish.’ (2018) Our aim therefore is simple: to provide the highest quality education for every student. We nurture to flourish and challenge to grow. Individuals are supported to fulfil their unique potential, enabling them to face the future with confidence. Our exam results certainly bear testimony to us achieving that aim - in the arts, sciences, sport, humanities and technology subjects. But a great education is about so much more than exam performance – and Our Intent details what we believe is equally important. We develop character, moral strength, emotional resilience and self-confidence, as well as engendering that sheer love of learning for its own sake. Our Intent guides teaching and learning, and an extensive extracurricular programme, where we pay significant attention to cultivating these vital attributes too. Education is, of course, a partnership. We understand that effective communication between home and school is essential, and parents are always welcome to contact us to seek advice or reassurance. I hope that you enjoy looking at our website, and I would encourage you to visit us at our ‘Open’ events to discover what makes Bishop Stopford School unique.
