Primary Geography
The benefits of studying Primary Geography
Our Primary Geography homeschooling course aims to inspire your child with a curiosity and fascination about the world and its people that will remain with them for the rest of their lives.
This course covers the requirements of the UK Key Stage 2 English National Curriculum over 4 years and aims for children to:
- Develop knowledge of the location of globally significant places, as well as their defining physical and human characteristics.
- Understand the processes that give rise to the key physical and human geographical features of the world, and how these vary over space and time.
- Become competent in a wide range of geographical skills.
Once completed, our Primary Geography homeschooling course lays the foundations for children to transition smoothly to our Secondary Geography course.

I find working one to one with students is extremely rewarding as study can be tailored to both support and challenge. It is wonderful to help children make progress as independent learners.

I’m fascinated by how people learn. Nothing is better than really getting to know each student. I enjoy talking with students about their greatest successes and how they deal with their failures.

Ignacio Estrada said, “If a child can’t learn the way we teach, maybe we should teach the way they learn.” This sums up what I have enjoyed most about teaching and what motivates me.

Geography is such an important subject: it teaches us what the world we live in is like now, how it came to be this way and what it may look like in the future. I hope you too will love Geography.

I cannot praise Geography enough: such a fantastic course, so clever and challenging in a positive way! Natalia found it the hardest but also absorbing, especially the topic on population. Thank you again for this year. I don’t think there is a better way to educate a child.
