Welcome to Get Ahead Educational games. Choose from a range of Maths, Reading and Spelling games designed for use by parents and tutors of 3 to 11 year olds. Home learning made fun!
These games for 2 players are quick and easy to set up on any available table in the home and play time is just 15 minutes or less! they are also a very useful resource for home tutors.
They’re self-checking. You or anyone else can play on an equal footing. Winning depends on aspects such as forward thinking, a steady hand, a little luck and so on - not on the Maths or Language skill being learned.
They’re National Curriculum compatible so no need to worry about confusing your child. And, of course, they’re fun!
About Me...
I first set up Get Ahead as a tutoring business about ten years ago.
Having previously been a teacher, it was an obvious choice of home business for me, of course. It was only later that the games element was added.
The tutoring will always be an important part of my work as that is where the games are conceived and developed - for ‘real’ children in ‘real’ one-to-one learning situations. And children, being born critics of course, enjoy testing my latest designs and letting me know what works and what doesn’t! Their comments definitely influence the final results.
