‘Thank You’ notes from pupils that warmed our hearts in spring term
We can think of thousands of reasons why working with children brings us joy, purpose, and fulfilment. But what’s even more heart warming is when the children you support recognise your impact on their lives and share inspiring thank-you notes of appreciation. Thank you, tutors!
Despite the odd challenge of managing children during sessions, their boundless energy, honesty and humour keep us all going.
Watching pupils grow in subject knowledge and confidence is even more motivating for our volunteers who spend an hour each week to help them improve their English and maths skills.
With summer term just beginning, let’s throwback to some of the remarkable words and notes of gratitude some pupils shared with our volunteers and programme team in schools last term.
1. Being a child’s favourite grey-haired person is indeed a compliment!
2. Sometimes, playing is learning and learning is playing. Finding the best approach for every child is essential.
3. Appreciation in poetry
4. Group high-5 for Brenda
5. World’s best!
6. The best tutor award goes to…
7. Is there anything like positive anger?
8. Tutoring goes beyond knowledge. Changes behaviours and attitudes too.
9. Levelling up
10. Certainly a good use of time!
Why we do what we do
These words of appreciation and witnessing a pupil grow from strength to strength are why we do what we do.
Why not join us and shape a child’s future by volunteering an hour a week to help them improve their academic performance in English or maths?
