Founder story
Why Tiny Steps Learning was founded
Founder focus
Structured. Personal. Measurable.
Priya founded Tiny Steps Learning to make high-quality English learning more structured, personal and measurable for children.
Her academic role spans curriculum development, lesson design, teacher guidance, teaching quality and parent communication across Phonics, Reading, Grammar, Writing and Public Speaking.
The goal is not simply to help children complete lessons. It is to keep learning progress observable through reading accuracy, sentence formation, language use and increasingly independent communication.

Teacher Development

Academic Quality

Academic philosophy
Principles behind the academic work
Tiny Steps uses readiness, guided practice, cumulative review and observable learner evidence to shape progression towards greater independence.
Start from readiness and prerequisites
Child readiness and prerequisites inform the learning progression before new complexity is added.
Guide practice, review and independence
Guided practice, retrieval, cumulative review and gradual reduction of support inform how learning progresses.
Look for evidence of independent use
Progress is observed through reading accuracy, sentence formation, language use and increasingly independent communication.
