About
'The Learning Supportive Initiative' (tLSI) offers a wide range of learning and academic services tailored
for both individuals, groups and organisations: deliveredface-to-face and
online by distance learning.The tLSI approach is based on creating learning program(s) around your needs through a simple needs analysis discussion / form that is the foundation of your personalised program.
We offer an initial free discussion to see how we can meet your needs and work together to see how best we can help.
The philosophy we take isbased on helping you reach your goals through empathy, patience and professionalism as we offer a high level of experience and qualifications and a personable
friendly approach.tLSI is owned and operated by Anntain (Tain) who has a long history of working in education delivery
and development.
I hold both an Hons Degree and a Masters Degree in Education from the University of York, UK; I have certification in Teaching English as a Second Language, certification in Mental Health Awareness, and I am a Fellow with
AfL (now SET, UK).
With over 30 years’ experience in Teaching and Learning for a range of Universities, Vocational PTE’s, Corporate Learning and (Language) Schools across multiple countries,
I have worked with early years to adults; developing and delivering educational programs in a wide range of subject areas face-to-face
and online.
I have published research into assessment in learning and the importance of cultural identity in teaching practice, and my key interests are in bridging the gap of skills between the transitions from High school to University studies, as well as supporting inclusive education with learners with
special learning needs.
With that all in mind, I’m still learning! and my kids teach me new things all the time! I love to learn.., and I love helping others reach their learning potential.
