About Bridget
Please check out my tutoring website Holistic Tutoring.
After completing a BA(Hons) and practical teaching placement in New Zealand, Bridget Simes moved to Sydney in 2010 to train with Jim Hooson of Learning Creations, which was formed to holistically assist children, teenagers and adults experiencing difficulties with all aspects of learning, attention and behaviour, including dyslexia, dyspraxia, ADD, ADHD, dyscalculia, giftedness, twice exceptional abilities, selective mutism, Aspergers and autism. She was mentored by Jim and his close network of kinesiologists, behavioural optometrists, breathing specialists, as well as published New York author Laurie Spigel. During this time she also studied with the North American Montessori Centre (Infant/Toddler) and ran small baby stretching/activity classes.
Bridget soon began running her own holistic assessments and 5 day programs with children and adults, as well as independent consulting, teaching Special Education teachers the Learning Creations activities, and training tutors. She found her greatest enjoyment in full-time tutoring and homeschooling work with dyslexic and gifted children and teenagers.
Bridget now provides holistic assessments, a written report, recommendations and follow up tutoring or activity programs
