With over 25 years of dedicated classroom teaching experience, I bring a wealth of expertise to education, having taught in Scotland, Northern Ireland and Australia.
Holding an Honours degree in Psychology and a Postgraduate Certificate in Education, my commitment to professional growth led me to specialise in gifted education. I earned a Certificate in Gifted Education from UNSW during my time in Australia. Committed to yet further understanding the needs of all my students, I now specialise in the science of reading and providing multisensory intervention using the Orton-Gillingham approach. I am passionate about this because it works, and it makes a powerful difference at a critical time in a child’s formative years.
I am a mum of two boys and have enjoyed supporting and guiding them throughout their own learning journeys.
Hindsight Learning is a specialist literacy and dyslexia support service for primary school children in Narrabeen and Sydney’s Northern Beaches. The approach is simple: understand the child, teach with intention, and create a space where it’s okay to take your time.
- Evidence-informed, explicit teaching
- Personalised programs and multisensory learning
- Clear parent communication along the way
A CLEAR PATH, TOGETHER
How it works:
three simple steps.
Free parent chat
A free, relaxed conversation about your child, your concerns and what you’re hoping for.
Learning session
An initial session with your child, aimed at exploring their current skills, strengths and areas that need extra support. This helps ensure that your child’s needs align with the services Kelly provides.
Weekly sessions
Patient, consistent teaching across four terms per year. Securing a spot requires a commitment to a minimum of one term, invoiced twice per term.
MORE THAN WORDS ON A PAGE
Confidence matters,
too.
The goals we work towards: less frustration, a willingness to have a go, and a child who feels supported. Every child’s progress is individual; outcomes aren’t guaranteed.
At Hindsight Learning, my mission is to provide a personalised and engaging educational experience. I believe in establishing a foundation of positive learning relationships and fostering a connection with each student. This approach, coupled with a focus on well-being, ensures that students not only enjoy but also successfully engage with their learning.
Recognising that the keys to learning extend beyond content mastery, Hindsight Learning's tailored approach emphasises the holistic development of students. My commitment to aligning fun behaviours with learning, building strong teacher-student connections, and creating a supportive learning environment reflects a dedication to comprehensive and impactful education.
Experience, continuous learning, and a passion for the well-being and success of every student underpin Hindsight Learning's commitment to providing the necessary support for each child to thrive academically and personally.
A FEW THINGS YOU MIGHT BE WONDERING
Let’s clear
things up.
Have another question?
That’s what the parent chat is for.
Does my child need a dyslexia diagnosis?
You can start with a parent chat whether your child has a diagnosis or you are simply concerned about reading and spelling. A learning review is not a formal dyslexia diagnosis; discuss any assessment needs with Kelly.
How is this different from tutoring?
Rather than simply helping with homework, the focus is on underlying literacy skills through explicit, step-by-step teaching, with a personalised plan and multisensory activities.
What ages do you work with?
The service is designed for primary school children. Chat with Kelly about your child’s school year and learning needs to explore whether the support is a good fit.
How often are sessions?
Weekly sessions form the usual process. The recommended frequency, session length and availability will be discussed with you before beginning.
Where do sessions take place?
Narrabeen · Sydney Northern Beaches. Suite 4, 1421 Pittwater Rd, Narrabeen NSW 2101.
How does Term & scheduling work?
Hindsight offers 4 terms per year, aligned to the NSW public school calendar, with billing arranged twice per term to keep logistics easier for everyone.
THE FIRST STEP IS JUST A CONVERSATION
You don’t need all the answers.
Let’s start together.
A free parent chat is a chance to share what you’re noticing,
ask questions, and explore the right support for your child.
