Hi all

Just wanted to recommend our tutor Betsy Rowland as I know I found it hard to get the right kind of help for our 6 year old.

Our son increasingly struggled at school through year 1; we had lots of worrying and unhelpful intervention from the SENCo and by the end of the year we were really apprehensive how he was going to cope with year 2. In addition we were very concerned with his self esteem and dislike of school in general, and decided to find help over the summer holidays - more than anything else, to boost his flagging confidence rather than his academic ability.

The transformation has been astounding; everyone has been commenting on his increased confidence, communication and vocabulary. Just a blossoming of personality really. He is actually keen to count and add things in every day life and almost shows off his ability to count in twos, fours etc. And above all his handwriting - which was the biggest red flag for the SENCo - has improved beyond recognition within a very short space of time. Im attaching a before and after from our 6th session.

I feel more in touch with how my son is learning stuff in school and am armed with techniques to help him. But above all we just have peace of mind that his innate intelligence can be tapped when the school was making us feel otherwise. Worth every penny. You can find out more on http://www.dulwich-tutor.co.uk/ and I am happy to be contacted through here to provide any other information.

    • Today we are seeing the impact of increased taxes (employers NI) with tje UK unemployment rate rising  https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cdxrp7znkdlo Unfortunately, to increase tax burdens will see the economy stall or a recession, as Angelina says, cutting spending, whilst painful short term, is a good way to bring down government borrowing.  True, we don't want to see cuts to services but there are other areas of government spending that can be reduced and with AI impacting all jobs across all businesses, maybe it will also reduce overall staffing costs. 
    • or cut costs.  The cost of debt is a huge burden, it cannot be increased.
    • Yes, they should clearly have been more honest on taxes before the election and not backed themselves into a corner. After 14 years of mismanagement and decline, they have to invest and at the same time start to bring borrowing down (otherwise they continues to be at the mercy of the bond markets). Continued cuts / degrading of public services is counter productive (a successful economy and society needs good infrastructure, education and health care).  The single biggest thing they could do to immediately improve growth would be to rejoin the single market, but I appreciate that is difficult politically.  So if you can't significantly boost growth short term, can't cut too much further, and need to raise money without borrowing, that only really leaves taxation.    Of course, where best to target those taxes - that's the real question.
