Cambridge

Stage 1: Hayley Poppleton, a qualified teacher from Cambridge University studied the impacts of tuition on student engagement and performance. Her dissertation found small-group tuition, delivered in-person, develops students' critical thinking and analytical skills far beyond one-to-one learning. The small-group environment creates a positive, competitive space, for the 'best learning' to be shared amongst students meaning each child hears the 'best response', the 'best answer' or the 'best method' from their peers. This practice increases the working grades of the group, who subsequently out-performed students receiving one-to-one tuition. Stage 2: Hayley further investigated how specific learning techniques in the small-groups could progress students further. Hayley found when tuition was delivered in a fun, engaging and hands-on way, making resources tangible and memorable students were significantly more engaged, remembered the learnt materials for longer periods and performed better than students who learnt from online resources. Her dissertation and findings received a distinction and an honoury message from the Dean at Cambridge University's Education Faculty. Stage 3: Other parents started to notice the improvement in their child from Hayley's small-group tuition method which led to Elite Tuition Cambridge. Today, we have helped over 115 students in Cambridgeshire by getting them to love the learning experience and progress beyond their targets.
