Frances works with children from 3 years old to adolescents of 19 years of age. Her fun, light-hearted way of working with young people makes her highly popular with children and parents.
About Frances:
- I studied Education and Drama at Honours and Post Graduate level at Exeter University, England (where JK Rowling trained!).
- I studied under the prestigious and legendry Ted Wragg.
- I have taught in schools in England and New Zealand.
- I have been a visiting lecturer in Education at - Auckland University, AUT, MIT and Unitec.
- I have lectured in the Arts and Multiple Intelligences.
- For years I was an Adviser in schools, teaching the teachers in Arts and Multiple Intelligences.
- I have written eight resources/books for teachers with eight more coming up - with Essential Resources. (Please note the resources are under my maiden name of Reed)
- I have written children’s chapters books (eight) - 7 of which have Joy Cowley as my Chief Editor. (See Books section).
- I am trained in Narrative therapy - under the prestigious David Epston (who is my supervisor).
- I am passionate about a coaching/guiding style of parenting which works so successfully with gifted, dyslexic, creative and tricky children.
- I have four children - Coco, Jasmine, Toby and Paris. Coco, Toby and Paris struggled to read (dyslexia) - now all read chapter books and are doing exceptionally well!
- My passions are: writing, dance, drama, children’s imaginations, playing the piano, walking my dog and watching movies. I am lucky enough to have a fabulous (if a little ‘out of the box’) family and friends.
