Inspired minds learning has truly changed the way my daughter veiws phonics! Not only has she learnt so much in the last few weeks but shes honestly made a massive improvement in recognising words and actually reading full sentences! She read a whole book few weeks ago and I was just super happy, before she would struggle to even say once sentence without sounding out each and every sound. Shes become more confident and happy to read! Thanks so much Charlotte and Erika for making it so fun for Maryam, im so sad itll be ending soon but thank you for you hard work in helping her love reading and getting so much better at it everyday!

Thank you inspired minds.

I am a mother of 5 year old son. I’m truly grateful to join in inspired mind for reading class for my son. The way they are focusing to keep children interactive and motivated is amazing. There is a good progress with my son’s blending sounds as I wanted. He loves to attend the classes and within one month noticed he has improved.
Thank you inspired minds and happy for the decision we got to join and hoping to continue as my son is really interested .

Trinity's Journey

When we first enrolled Trinity in Charlotte’s programme at Inspired Minds Learning, our daughter faced profound challenges. Blending sounds felt insurmountable to her, and her shyness made even the simplest participation daunting. She would retreat at the first sign of difficulty, avoiding learning altogether. Yet, in just five weeks of Charlotte’s sessions—part of a 12-week journey—we have seen her transform from a hesitant learner to someone who faces challenges with determination. Her successes, marked by earning a red badge, stand as evidence of her improved confidence and active contributions in class.

Charlotte’s teaching style, infused with creativity and warmth, has been pivotal. The introduction of “Dojo points” turned learning into a playful adventure. Trinity now eagerly anticipates these gamified lessons, where activities such as “Sound Treasure Hunts” reward her efforts. This approach has spilled into our home life, too, transforming what once felt like a struggle into a source of joy.

Thank you, Charlotte, for guiding Trinity with such dedication and care.

Thank you so much for your beautiful message—it truly means the world. Watching Trinity blossom over the past few weeks has been such a joy. Her journey from quietly retreating to stepping forward with confidence has been incredible to witness, and I’m so proud of how far she’s come already.

It’s wonderful to hear how the Dojo points and treasure hunts have brought joy to her learning—and even more special that it’s spilled over into your home life too.

Thank you for trusting me to be part of Trinity’s journey. I can’t wait to see what she achieves next!

Thank You!

My 7 year old daughter has been working with Inspired Minds Learning in their online, small group sessions for just over 6 months.

The difference in her confidence and fluency has been immeasurable- well this is not strictly true.

Poppy has always been reported as ‘working towards age related expectations’. Today at her parents evening it was reported that she had achieved her first ever ‘working at’ score in her most recent reading assessment.

We are beyond proud of Poppy and extremely grateful to Charlotte.

Poppy has transformed from avoiding all reading and it being a constant battle to complete homework, to looking forward to sessions and independently completing homework tasks. Poppy even chose to join in sessions from our holiday!!

Thank you 🩷

It's so lovely to hear that she’s gone from avoiding reading to independently completing homework – and even choosing to join sessions on holiday! Her achievement of ‘working at’ in her reading assessment is a testament to her hard work. I’m beyond proud of her and so grateful to have been part of her journey. Well done, Poppy!

My son has been with the Inspired Minds…

My son has been with the Inspired Minds team for three months and I cannot express enough how much of a difference this has made to my son’s progression in phonics/comprehension. My son lacked confidence in reading and it was starting to affect his self esteem in a classroom setting. Fast forward 12 weeks, even his teachers are starting to see a change in his attitude and progression in phonics/reading in general. I cannot thank Charlotte enough for building a lovely relationship with my sob and being his biggest ‘cheerleader’ on this journey. Thank you so much!

Thank you so much for your kind words—it honestly means the world! It’s been such a joy to watch your son grow in confidence and start believing in himself again. The progress he’s made in just 12 weeks has been incredible, and I’m so glad it’s being noticed beyond our sessions too.

It’s always my goal to make every child feel supported, celebrated, and capable—and it’s been a pleasure to be his ‘cheerleader’ on this journey. I’m so proud of him.

Thank you again for your lovely review and for trusting us to be a part of his learning journey.

Confident reader

My son has developed new love for reading. In the past two months (2 sessions per week) his blending skills have improved significantly and spellings too with tricky words. His class teacher also mentioned he is much faster in reading and attempts to read complex words at school. Charlotte keeps the class fun for the kids so it really helps. We are happy with the progress so far and looking forward to continuing our sessions with advance phonics classes.

Thank you so much for your lovely review! It’s been such a joy to see your son develop a real love for reading and make so much progress in such a short time. I’m thrilled to hear his blending skills and confidence with tricky words are showing both in our sessions and at school—that’s exactly what we aim for!

I’m so pleased he’s enjoying the sessions and finding them fun—it makes such a difference when children are excited to learn. I can’t wait to continue working with him as we move on to more advanced phonics skills and see his confidence grow even further.

Thank you again for your kind words and trust in the programme!

Great improvement with reading

My daughter has been doing the classes for just 4 weeks and already she has excelled with her reading. Her school teacher has really noticed a difference and she has moved up a reading book band recently. She enjoys all of the games and looks forward to her 2 evenings a week for her online lessons. It’s so interactive and engaging and always brings fun ways for her to learn.

A massive improvement and confidence in phonics/reading

Inspired Minds learning has been a wonderful experience for my son Azaan. He was struggling with his phonics which made him fall behind his reading compaired to others children his age. This had a massive impact on his confidence and he would shy away and not speak out for task. Otherwise his a well spoken confident young boy. English is the foundation to everything for the rest of our lives. I wanted Azaan to again his confidence back and be able to read with confidence and catch up.
I came across Charlotte's advert on Instagram, and I am so glad I did. She has been teaching my son online since October, his confidence in phonics and reading has improved massively. His practising speed reading and his improving day by day. He looks forward to his phonic sessions and confident enough to shout out the answers and take part in task's. Charlotte starts of each session with a recap of previous session to see how much he remembers. Azaan answers with confidence and looks for to his sessions and learns new phonics phases everytime. I'm grateful I found Charlotte to help my son as she caters for his requirement and has boosted his confidence and helped him with his learning. If any parents have children who struggling with phonics and reading, please do consider Inpired Mind Learning, you will not be disappointed.

Thank you so much for your kind words and for sharing Azaan's journey with Inspired Minds Learning! 🌟 It’s been an absolute pleasure teaching him and watching his confidence grow session by session. Seeing him go from shying away to confidently shouting out answers and engaging in tasks is exactly why I do what I do.

You’re absolutely right—English truly is the foundation for so much in life, and it’s wonderful to see Azaan embracing his learning and progressing day by day. His dedication and excitement during sessions are a joy to witness, and it’s so rewarding to know he’s feeling more confident not just in phonics but in himself.

Thank you for trusting me to be part of his learning journey. Your words mean the world, and I’m so grateful to be able to support Azaan’s growth.

Charlotte has been great in inspiring Aliza to reach new heights. The Lessons are great and so joyful. My daughter has moved leaps and bounds since being taught by Charlotte. She has developed her speaking and listening most importantly her pronunciation of words and letters. Look no further if you want your child to move further get in touch with Charlotte.

Thank you so much for your kind words and thoughtful review! It's been an absolute pleasure working with Aliza and seeing her grow in confidence and ability. Even though she had just started Year R when we began, she can now recognise so many sounds and is already confidently blending to read words—such an amazing achievement! Thank you for trusting me to support her learning journey.

Our sons confidence is growing

We reached out to Charlotte when our son’s year 3 teacher told us his reading was quite far behind from his peers and his confidence to read was very low. William has joined Charlottes session and quickly started to recognise those sounds needed to decode and blend words. The sessions are joyful and engaging, they don’t feel like a chore to take part of. Williams confidence is really growing. Thank you Charlotte.

Amazing progress

My daughter has been working with Charlotte for a few months now, and the progress has been incredible! She’s always been confident, but I wanted to make sure she had a strong foundation in phonics before starting school. Charlotte’s lessons are so engaging and fun that my daughter is always excited for her next session. She’s already recognising so many sounds and is well on her way to reading words. I’m amazed at how quickly she’s picking things up, and I’m really happy we found Charlotte to guide her through this important stage.

Amazing

My daughter is absolutely loving her sessions with Charlotte! She’s just started learning phonics and honestly, I’ve noticed such a difference already with how she’s picking up sounds and letters. The lessons are really fun, and Charlotte knows exactly how to keep them engaged (which is no easy task!). It’s made learning so much easier for her. Charlotte really seems to care about each child, and you can tell she’s passionate about what she does. So glad we found this, it’s been a great start for my little one!

My son started school in September as one of the youngest in his class, and I was worried about how he'd keep up with reading. Charlotte has been amazing with him, making each session fun and engaging. Even though we've only just started, he's already learned so many sounds and is so close to reading words on his own! His confidence is growing, and he actually looks forward to her classes. I couldn't be happier with the progress he's making!

Great tutor

My daughter has been with Charlotte for a few months now, and the progress she’s made is incredible! At just 4 years old, she’s recognising sounds with confidence and can already blend them to read simple words. Charlotte’s sessions are always fun and engaging, which has really kept her excited about learning. It’s amazing to see how much her reading skills have grown, and I can’t recommend Charlotte’s tutoring enough!
