Reading instruction in New Zealand has shifted to structured literacy, now embedded in the refreshed NZ Curriculum. At Thinking2Morrow, our tutoring programmes are fully aligned with this evidence-based approach. Structured literacy is explicit and systematic, teaching children how words work through phonics, spelling, and writing. Research shows that with high-quality instruction, up to 95% of children can learn to read successfully. After more than 18 months of implementation, we are seeing our students read more fluently, spell more accurately, and write with greater confidence.

Set your child up for life
The quote on the left is from beloved children’s author Dr Suess, who more than anyone understood how vital communication is to success in life.
With our engaging and stimulating English and communications programmes, small classes with one-on-one tuition and self-paced learning, is your child’s success 98 and 3/4% guaranteed?
Yes indeed, yes indeed!
“Reading teaches me something new or helps me see things differently.”
“I hate reading.”
- Bill Gates, Billionaire and Keen Reader
Are these the saddest words in the English language? Despite the advent of social media, YouTube and podcasts, reading remains a foundation of the way we communicate, learn and think.
Which makes it doubly sad that many Kiwi kids are now growing up without the ability to read for meaning, let alone enjoyment.
We at Thinking2morrow are doing our best to address that with specialised programmes and tutoring that help children not only to master early reading with tried-and-true methods such as phonics but also to read for pleasure.

“I don’t know what to write!”
How many parents and teachers have heard those words?
Our integrated approach to teaching written expression encourages children to explore their ideas by:
- talking them through with their tutor
- learning better writing skills from their reading
- using T2M’s mind-mapping techniques to facilitate structured writing
- understanding how to structure their written expression in a clear and logical way
- building their confidence and creativity
Communication skills are vital in today’s world
Communication is the key to success—at school, at work, in relationships and in all other aspects of life. That’s why we at T2M go further to help your child to develop both oral and written language skills as well as critical and creative thinking.
It all begins with a free Assessment of your child’s needs. We then craft individual programmes around those needs. Will your child find value in our approach? Only he or she can decide that, so we offer a free Trial Lesson to enable you to try before you buy.
There’s nothing to lose so why not book now?
