About
Written from the classroom, with a counsellor's eye.
Chalk & Compass exists to make high-quality, detailed learning resources and practical guidance accessible to every parent and teacher, with personal support when it is needed.
Who is behind it
I am Kerem, a primary class teacher and qualified counsellor. I work as a Special Educational Needs Coordinator in a British international school, and I support families with questions about learning, attention and focus.
That combination shapes everything here. Psychology helps us understand why a child finds something hard. Classroom experience shows what actually helps on an ordinary day. I try to keep both in view.
What we believe
A world where every child's learning needs are understood early is possible, if parents and teachers can easily reach clear, practical guidance. Our work is digital resources and online consultancy, kept simple, honest and kind.
Chalk & Compass offers guidance and support. We do not diagnose, and we never publish anything that identifies a real child.
