"Our
seven year old son was experiencing trouble with his reading. It wasn't
really his reading; it was the pressure that he placed on himself to
get every word right. Attempts at reading would end tears, and then he
tried to avoid reading altogether. With the coaching, Sue was able to
help him to change his attitude towards reading get the rid of the self
imposed pressure".

"Sue has been coaching my 13 year old son for over 6
months and we've
seen a great change in how he copes with challenging situations; he's
become a mature young man who is confident, perceptive and has a
positive attitude to life."

"Sue coached my nine year old daughter for about six
sessions. She was
having trouble making and keeping friends, and often spent lunch times
alone (which broke my heart). Sue taught my daughter skills such as
being aware of how she is communicating, and how to read the body
language of the other kids. The coaching has made a real difference to
the quality of my daughter's life, and her happiness at school".

"I thought rather than my comments about
the Good2gr8 coaching, it would be better to ask my son (aged 10), as
his well being was my concern and the reason I sought your classes in
the first place. His comment is "I found the
coaching fun and with friendly kids, I thought about the things I had
learned when I went back to school and I reckon it has really
helped". From my perspective...there have been no further
tears about the thought of going to school, and although I also brought
his plight to the attention of the teachers I believe that the coaching
has played an enormous role in his perceptions and reactions. Thanks
Sue"

Year Seven Students:
“I am a year 7 girl
and I have been going to Good2gr8. It has helped me with year
seven. I learnt how to control my feelings. And we tried
different things to help us in our life. All of us six year seven
girls would like to thank you for letting us have this chance”.
“Awesome”.
“I think it is AWESOME! I told my Grandma that without this
session I wouldn’t have been able to make it through this far in
high school. I would like to continue having this session to
build my confidence and please let us have more sessions”.
“I enjoyed the games the most as they were fun and helpful, but
altogether it was really FUN!”
“Good2gr8 has been fun. It wasn’t just talking, there
were games, music and even mini plays! It has really helped me a
lot. I have learnt so much with how to talk to people, and body
language, and how to keep calm when I am angry”.
“Kids who get bullied, and kids who don’t come to school
because they are afraid of being bullied should do Good2gr8”.
Year Eight Students:
“It teaches you new
things. You get to learn things you don’t learn in class
like body language and eye contact”.
“You learn about the ‘self – others’ line,
which is about how other people see you and how you see them”.
“The most important thing I learnt that I will use for the rest
of my life is how to talk to other people who you don’t
know”.
“It’s better than counselling because there is no pressure
to say things you don’t want to”.

helped me a lot with communicating better with teachers, family,
friends and other people as well”.

me improve my listening skills”.

for the future so I have really enjoyed it”.

things”.
