I was so chuffed when I heard that Maddie was launching her own website. Forever she would endorse the work of others which was a bit frustrating for us teachers who have long admired her own brilliant work.

Maddie’s courses were a Godsend as an NQT. Reading and writing were always a bit daunting as a trainee, but Maddie’s courses were always so inspiring. I’d always come away excited – buzzing with new ideas and ways to improve my teaching.

As my career has progressed, I’ve been really lucky to attend more courses with Maddie and time and again, I come away with something new to try in the classroom. Without a doubt – Maddie has improved my teaching enormously which is always reflected in the success of the children.

I am now much more confident in planning reading and writing – whatsmore, I absolutely love teaching them thanks to Maddie and all her wonderful ideas, tips, hints and recommendations that are now firmly in the bank and inform my daily teaching.

Maddie really is an inspiration. She’s passionate about what she does and she knows her stuff. She’s been in the classroom and knows what it’s all about. This is why her work is so meaningful and absolutely essential for teachers.

I’m delighted that Maddie is launching this website so that her work can be enjoyed by a much wider audience – inspiring many more as she has me.</br></br>
