Fantastic, thank you so much! I'm sure my grandma used to knit dishrags with me too now you mention it! She taught me to knit a little bit when I was small. I will have to let you know how it goes! 😊🌻

Oooh. Knitting is lovely - I've not practiced enough to be much good yet though 😆 do you have any tips for a beginner? 🤔

Weekend vibes! ✨ It’s been a great day of maths - lots of averages, algebra and problem-solving! Now it’s time to recharge (my voice was definitely disappearing by my last class… oops!) Hoping for a little rest - and maybe a swim too! What’s your favourite way to rest and reset? Have fun! 😊🌈

Early finish today, so I'm outside with Cherry, planning lessons in the sunshine! Definitely beats sitting at a desk 😆 Anyone else making the most of the good weather? ☀️

Happy Easter everyone! I've been doing maths on the go, on my bank holiday weekend outing 😁🌻 I'll be sharing more soon! 🤩 Can you guess where I am? What are you up to this weekend? 🐰

Feeling far too amused that this face mask is “supercharged with probiotic fractions” - 2 million of them, apparently! 😆 Off to do some colouring while I imagine a flock of numerators and denominators working together to give me glowing, healthy skin. Now that’s maths magic 🪄

My pleasure! 🤣 my cats have the run of the place (except my office - I couldn't deal with them climbing all over me while I'm trying to teach 😅). They even have a "cat castle" outside one of the living room windows - it's just a homemade wooden 3 storey "catio" but I call it their castle 😆🎉

Wow! Thank you for sharing such interesting facts! 😊🌈 I love ginger and getting to know new people too, and your home sounds fascinating! 4 cats! 🎉 🤩 I have 3, so I can use this as justification to get another 🤣 Although I've just done the calculations and my tiny house is much smaller! 🐱🐱🐱🐾

Three Things You (Probably) Didn’t Know About Me! 1. I have a fluffy cat who loves licking my ears. 2. My favourite number is 4 - sometimes I even do things in 4s without thinking! 3. I have loads of cuddly toys. And yes, I cuddle them! 😆 What's your favourite fun fact about you or your pets? 🐾

✨ Maths done, weekend mode on! ☕ Time for tea (chocolate & vanilla—what a find!), cats, blankets & relaxed colouring. Might even add some extra colour to my hair—always helps me feel brighter! 🌈 How’s your week been? Resting or keeping the momentum going? 😊 #FriYAY #SelfCareTime #HomeEducation

Today's free maths class is cancelled - apologies! I'm listening to my own advice and taking a rest! Sometimes, the best thing we can do is recognise when we need a break, particularly as neurodivergent people. Thanks for understanding! My other classes are still running as usual 🌈

Oooh! That sounds brilliant - I need to find yunnan gold! I've heard good things about lapsang souchong too - I've definitely seen it in teabags from the Twinings brand in the UK. Teabags are so much more convenient, but sometimes I think you don't quite get the same flavour 🤔

Chilling with tea this weekend - turmeric & ginger for warmth and lavender at night (which my cats love!) 🐱 I always leave the teabag in & sometimes top up the water a few times - yes, it's weak, but still tasty! 😆 Any tea recommendations? Bonus points if they smell nice enough to attract a cat! ☕🐾

A breakthrough moment: If I can do maths, what else can I do? 🤯 One student went from exam anxiety to aiming for A-level maths - proving to themselves they’re capable of more than they ever thought! Maths is about confidence, and thinking differently. 🧮 I'd love to help your learner too! 🌈

It’s #ChildrensMentalHealthWeek and this year’s theme #KnowYourselfGrowYourself got me reflecting. As a child, I struggled with anxiety. I didn’t know I was neurodivergent - or that school isn’t the best place for every learner. 💬 What advice would you give your younger self?

All the best people have a soft toy support system! 🧸 I know I do - plus three very snuggly cats who take their support duties very seriously! 🐱🐱🐱 What about you? Do you have a favourite comfort item, support system or self-care ritual? Let’s celebrate the little things that help us to recharge! 🌈

✨Self-Care Saturday 💜✨ I've been tackling my tax return – no maths anxiety here, but definitely "admin anxiety"! 😅 Reminder: we all have different strengths, and it's okay to pause. Taking a breather with my swirly coffee ☕ (galaxy in a cup 🌌). How are you being kind to yourself today? 🌈

At the airport on Monday I felt a tickle in my throat - a sign since my recent flu that I need to rest 😔 Sure enough, after the journey then a busy day of classes on Tuesday, I woke up today feeling drained and with a sore throat. Sometimes I even get mouth ulcers when I need to slow down! 😬
