Our twice-weekly sessions help take the stress away from Kent Test (11+) preparation.
With each group led by a dedicated, fully-qualified primary school teacher, you can be safe in the knowledge that your child is receiving expert tuition as well as relevant test-style questioning. Our bespoke curriculum is designed to cover English, maths and reasoning, guaranteeing complete coverage that gives your child all the familiarisation they need before test day.
An authentic & collaborative learning environment
Using the video conferencing app ‘Zoom’, we share our screen so that our top-quality lesson slides can be streamed directly to your child’s device. Our tutors have access to additional hardware, such as graphics tablets, in order to deliver visually superb teaching and clear modelling of questions. A fully authentic online learning environment, direct to your own home!
We teach a maximum of 8 children per group, with each child having direct access to a private chat box with their tutor at all times. This ensures that your child receives quality, personal feedback, whilst benefitting from collaborative learning opportunities. We offer feedback to parents with every session via a dedicated WhatsApp group.
Cover all of the essentials
Each week consists of two 1-hour sessions. The first covers English and verbal reasoning, with the second including maths and non-verbal/spatial reasoning. We have developed detailed lesson resources that ensure all key topics are covered within each subject. Through years of experience, we know exactly what must be taught in order to give each child the best chance of success.
Frequent lessons ensure consolidation of previous learning and allow for sequences of sessions that build on from one another. Working in term time, children get into a routine that suits them, with adequate time for rest during half-term breaks. Tutors and children quickly build up strong working relationships that ensure progress in a fun, safe and engaging learning environment.
We cover all of the 11+ essentials, which include English, maths, verbal reasoning, non-verbal reasoning and spatial reasoning. The first hour-long session of the week consists of English and verbal reasoning. The second session of the week consists of maths and non-verbal/spatial reasoning.
Yes. Each week, your child will have access to four homework tasks covering the four different subjects taught that week (English, maths, verbal and non-verbal/spatial reasoning). The tasks are specific to the learning in that session. They come complete with answers for self-marking as well as helpful video walkthroughs from Dylan and Hayden.
Tutors will provide individual feedback to each child in-session based on your child’s input. Your tutor will also provide whole group feedback after each session via a WhatsApp group. Pupils attending our ‘Tutoring Sessions’ also receive free access to our mock test papers (three across the year) which come complete with detailed attainment reports that outline their strengths and next steps. Additionally, you can regularly assess your child when they complete their weekly homework tasks by using the answer sheets provided.
Our groups operate at a maximum capacity of 8 children per group.
