Neuro-affirming Tutoring
Learning support that celebrates your brain, not fights against it.
Why Neuro-affirming Tutoring?
Conventional tutoring often overlooks the unique ways neurodivergent learners process, focus, and thrive.
Neuroaffirming tutoring recognises and builds on strengths of neurodivergent brains such as creativity, monotropism, hyperfocus, and non-linear thinking, while also supporting you to develop stategies to manage challenges like executive dysfunction, task paralysis, burnout, and study overwhelm.
How it works
When people hear “tutoring,” they often think subject-specific support.
This isn’t that kind of tutoring.
Neuroaffirming tutoring is about learning HOW to learn in ways that actually work for your brain.
Each session is flexible, collaborative, and tailored to you.
