My online classes are suitable for most children. I do ask that an adult monitors their child while they are online. Sessions are 1.5 hours long, so are suitable for children who are able to concentrate for long periods. I am happy to discuss your individual needs and support you and your child to access my classes. Please feel free to get in touch.
A few days before the start date you will be sent a Zoom link and links to any resources.
