About
Meet Deborah, your Goldleaf tutor
Deborah teaches one child at a time, building every session around play, songs and stories, and following one clear reading path from first sounds to first books.
Why Goldleaf
Goldleaf Learning has one idea at its centre: children read best when every adult around them teaches the same sounds in the same order. Tutoring, books and a home curriculum all follow one phonics path, so nothing your child learns has to be unlearned.
Tutoring is the first part to open. Decodable phonics readers and a home learning programme for ages 2, 3 and 4 are on the way.
Goldleaf is a Christian-run business. Sessions are faith-neutral by default. If you would like it, an optional faith package of prayers, Bible stories and worship songs is available to use at home.
Safe hands
How sessions run safely
- At home, a parent or carer stays in the house for the whole session.
- At church, children are signed in and out, and only go home with named adults. The door stays open or the room stays visible.
- You can stay for the session or drop off. Your child's routine, naps and mealtimes come first.
- A short chat at handover keeps you in the loop on what your child tried and enjoyed.
