Primary Times Hertfordshire
First Class Learning
in their own words...
“Learning works well when it is fun. At
First Class Learning we have found
that the three main ingredients for
successful learning are excellent
materials, a nurturing environment
and sharing in the pleasure of our
students’ achievements. Emma
Slinger, from Stevenage, is a great
example of someone with an infectious
enthusiasm for learning. Emma
started cautiously, but has gone from
strength to strength with her number
manipulation. Emma always wants
to get things right and is learning see
mistakes and making corrections as
learning opportunities. Get in touch
with your local First Class Learning
Centre and find out how your child
can become confident in Maths and
English.”

the brain. This is based on years of
research in neuroscience and the way
the brain learns.
