ABOUT TRUDY HINDMARSH - FOUNDER OF MAGICAL CHANGE
As a student, I trained as a Samaritan - so I have had `helping people in trouble` as a fundamental desire from an early age.
"I have been a teacher for 48 years. It was all I ever wanted to be. I started my teaching career, after being trained in Primary Education. However, I ended up starting my career as a teacher in a sixth form setting, teaching English Literature `A` Level. Further appointments took me through secondary teaching, back to primary education and finally into infant teaching. Eventually, in my final appointment, I was promoted to the senior management team of a large primary school, in Cleveland, and worked as a SENCO (Special Needs Co-ordinator) there for over ten years. At that time, I devised, set up, and operated, a system of individually teaching all the children from 6 years to 11 years, in the school, who were experiencing significant reading difficulties. This one to one contact was significant in developing my approaches within the Magical Change system.
Across 20 years, I was the founder and principal of several very successful Performing Arts schools, which I opened in the NE of England in 1997. We won six awards at local, regional and national level for our work within these schools, from different awarding bodies. The move to this area of teaching came out of a passion for improving the confidence of children. Confidence is the keystone to everything a child can achieve. It has so much to do with academic and personal progress, material success in life, and the development of healthy relationships and resilience to life`s problems. Much of the content of the Magical Change concept came into existence during this part of my career." I retired from this business in 2017 to pursue Magical Change and to start teaching examination work in Speech and Drama, privately. Here I have taken a particular interest in helping children to find their own learning styles and refining methods, to help them to learn easily and with lasting effect. This has also fed into the Magical Change method. During this period I also trained as an NLP practitioner with NLP4KIDS, and have pursued a private interest in Neuroscience and in Autism to gain as much knowledge as I can about how the minds of children work.
