We offer a FREE educational assessment. We assess your child’s ability, so that we may provide you with honest feedback about strengths as well as areas of concern. During feedback, we will also explain our tuition methods to you. This is a great opportunity for you and your child to meet us, see how much we also love to learn, and ask any questions before deciding whether to enrol your child.
Our tutoring consists of one-to-one tuition in a small group with a qualified teacher. They will explain the work to your child (and not just plough through worksheets). They will give your child some work that they can do to help their confidence grow.
In addition, we provide dyslexia tuition which aims to support children struggling with reading and spelling. We also understand that the Common Entrance exam process can be daunting for learners and their parents alike. Information about your child’s current attainment, gleaned from the assessment process, is used to design a programme that will improve your child’s exam success. We want to assure you of our excellent record in this area. Please contact us today for a free assessment.
