GCSE
Our professional and experienced tutors use up-to-date resources in line with the UK national curriculum to build-up your child’s ability, confidence and success in Maths, English & Sciences. We cover all key-stages up to GCSE, and can also offer A-Level support on a one-to-one basis.
We provide tuition for children of all abilities from ages 6 to 16 and we also offer the Young Learners programme running for 3-to-5-year old’s! Our unique resources are all graded to match the levels your child is working on in school.
We provide quality tuition for students aiming to reach a specific goal. This may be for individual improvement and general confidence, working towards Key Stage 1 + 2, SATs, KS3 exams, GCSE, 11+ verbal reasoning and math’s for school entry exams, comprehension, essay writing and non-verbal reasoning.
We use a mixture of computer as well as paper-based work in every teaching session. Each pupil has their own individual work plan which is drawn up from information gathered at a free assessment.
Teaching sessions are timetabled with a tutor. Each session will consist of a group of 3 to 5 pupils so that all students are provided with equal attention. Your child’s success is important to us, and we work hard to ensure they achieve it.
GCSE English and Maths Assessments
We will find out the exam board for the subject and texts/poems that they are covering as part of that course to support GCSE students. GCSE students already have a structure to follow and are able to discuss the requirements they have for their work. We will work with them and help them gain the level they want to be at.
