We are having a very positive experience with Kip McGrath. The tutors are knowledgeable and friendly, and the personalised approach to learning greatly is benefited my son. The structured lessons have definitely helped build his confidence, and I appreciated the regular progress updates after his sessions . Overall, a reliable resource for academic support."

We started my son's tuition at the olton centre a year and half now, and have seen him improve dramatically from the start. The centre is run by Sarah with excellent communication, and her team are very professional, well organised and make us feel very welcome. Danni, his tutor, keeps us informed with subjects covered and with excellent feedback. Feedback on any noticeable improvements in comprehension, any challenges, or next stages is explained to us at the end of every session. This helps in steering his attention to overcome any challenges. The home work he receives online is very engaging and enjoys doing them every week. The teaching style is very tailored to specific needs and they seek these needs in him very effectively. The tuition has really helped him at school, with his teacher's praising him for his improvement, and has recently received a special head teacher's mention.

Kip McGrath tutoring has been a real breakthrough for my daughter, helping her into a higher set for Maths. Friendly, professional people all the way through. And surprisingly affordable. Would completely recommend.

My son has autism and has struggled with school his whole life. Being in a mainstream school he has been left to fall behind and has large gaps in his knowledge. Now 13 years old and with the impending thought of GCSEs I was made to look for alternative help for my son before it was too late. So grateful to have found Kip McGrath! From the free assessment that they offer they were able to identify quickly where he needed most support and devised a plan to get my son learning at the appropriate pace for him. Sarah, Sheridan and Tracey have done wonders in building my sons confidence with his knowledge that even his school have made comments that they too have noticed the difference. Thanks Kip McGrath the future is looking bright. ⭐️

Key Stage Tutor is amazing. My daughter has been tutored by Nova since she was diagnosed with dyslexia in 2022, and the support and encouragement that she has been given is outstanding. Nova has taught my daughter to trust in her own abilities and has provided her with tools to use both in and outside of school to help with her dyslexia. It is evident that Nova genuinely cares for my daughter and provides her with the nurturing she needs during their sessions. I would highly recommend Key Stage Tutor. Although my main contact is with Nova, all the other tutors are friendly and helpful. My first conversation was with Tracie, and I distinctly remember thinking, while talking to her, that I hope she can fit in my daughter, as I knew I had found the right place for her. Google only allows 5 stars, but they are owed more ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Rating: 5 / 5

Having been to two other tutors I was wary. However, I could see straight away that Tracie was different. She set my daughter up with a folder and some activities to practice during the week. Within a short space of time Tracie could see what areas we needed to focus on. She was warm and encouraging throughout. My daughter enjoyed going to the sessions each week and it made a big difference to her SATs results.

Rating: 5 / 5

The team at Key Stage have been absolutely instrumental to the academic achievements of both of my children. Tracie spotted my children’s neurodiversity way ahead of me and their school, and has supported me 100% throughout my journey to diagnosis and support within and outside of the school setting. Besides that, she has ensured both of my children are filling in the gaps their school work, that they are simply not able to complete at school - due to class sizes/and more often, just general learning style. My children love going to tutoring! She has a brilliant way with both of my children, and they both feel far more confident in the classroom, than ever before. I simply couldn’t recommend Key Stage enough! Fantastic business, fantastic staff, brilliant results.

Rating: 5 / 5

Fantastic, supportive and caring tutors. I went to see Tracie as I was concerned my child had a SpLD. School repeatedly reassured me there was nothing to be concerned about, but I was not convinced. After a few sessions, Tracie echoed my concerns and helped me seek a diagnostic assessment. She has been a constant source of support and advice since, which really helped compensate for the lack of support from school. My other child also started attending sessions with Sarah, who recognised gaps in key areas of the curriculum and so addressed these. Both Tracie and Sarah are fantastic tutors who really care about the kids.

We are hugely grateful to Sharan at JS Tutoring, who is a dedicated, personable and knowledgable 11+ tutor. Sharan has built a great relationship with our daughter and ourselves over the past year, building bespoke tutoring sessions to meet the needs of our daughter. The sessions were held one-to-one and online in small groups, both very engaging and effective. Not only has our daughter gone from strength to strength, advancing in all areas of the curriculum, she has sat a number of the recent 11+ exams with confidence. We would 100% recommend JS Tutoring as an outstanding tutoring company.

Rating: 5 / 5

My only wish is that I had found JS Tutoring earlier! Absolutely fantastic tutoring with a very personable approach. Sharan gave invaluable feedback after each session and focused getting the results needed. Would 100% recommend JS Tutoring to anyone looking to cover the 11 plus curriculum!!!

Rating: 5 / 5

Excellent experience with Sharan. Her 11+ book Understanding and applying: Mathematical reasoning, verbal reasoning and language inference is a great resource and really helped me to explain Essential topics to my daughter. She passed the Kent test with great scores. Thanks Sharan for being a part of our 11+ journey.

Rating: 5 / 5

Sharan is very experienced and knowledgeable. She keeps her lesson effective, engaging and fun. My son is able to stay focus and he was always happy to attend the lesson We definitely recommend to another Mum. Thanku once again Sharon Binu

My son has just achieved a 5 in his GCSE maths (which is the highest in his foundation level) after being a 3 in his mocks. We used Joanne from advantage tuition on a 1-2-1 basis for an hour every week from mocks to GCSE and my son actually said he didn’t mind maths at the end when he did not like it all all previously. We would highly recommend

Rating: 5 / 5

I chose Advantage Tuition for my child who was preparing for the 11 plus exam. I am so glad I did. She passed the 11 plus with top scores and we couldn't be happier. She really enjoyed the classes which are always fun and engaging and she made some lovely friends at the centre too. I would 100% recommend Advantage Tuition!

Rating: 5 / 5

My daughter prepared her 11+ with Advantage Tuition, attended the Saturday classes and really enjoyed them. They were very organised, covered all the topics during the year, organised the homework and tests to practice at home, had mini assessments every term to evaluate their progression and they offered parent consultations. During the summer they also offered revion days and mock exams. All these really helped my daughter, and she ultimately performed well in the 11+ with a good result. Totally recommend Advantage Tuition

Rating: 5 / 5

My daughter had learning support for the 11+ exam and she got good results. I recommend this Tution centre for anyone. The teachers are very supportive and professional

My Son attended RTC for 11+ tuition and passed both the Medway and Kent tests with flying colours! The teachers are amazing and so supportive. They give you regularly feedback and are very friendly. I would 100% recommend RTC Rochester.

Rating: 5 / 5

Both of our children have now passed their 11+ thanks for the help of The Right Tuition Company. Getting children to do extra studying is never easy but the tutors make it easier because they are friendly, they really do care and they seem to just have what it takes to get the information into the children. They definitely learnt things that school just doesn’t have time to teach. They were taught techniques that their friends at school didn’t know that really helped cement their learning. I loved the additional classes they put on in the school holidays and I recommend the extra sessions they put on as summaries for each subject before the 11+. I cannot recommend The Right Tuition Company enough!!!

Rating: 5 / 5

My daughter and son attend the Rochester Tuition Centre. The teachers are all amazing, and helpful. Always giving constant feedback. Each session is enjoyable and educational would highly recommend. My daughter has made great progress recently in her practice exams for her 11+ and my son is in year 3 and has steadily grew in confidence. Many thanks to the team and the Manager Marina for her ongoing support and always going above and beyond :)

My two sons have made such amazing progress while taking Maths GCSE lessons at RTC. They both have gained in coʻnfidence and always come out telling me they enjoy the lessons and as an example i was told, "for the first time I understand trigonometry...ask me any question!" Highly recommend this tuition centre 👌 I can't thank them enough

Rating: 5 / 5

Excellent and professional service from the outset. After a free assessment, their highly experienced team put together a plan to prepare my daughter for her 11 plus under immense time pressure - she was offered her first choice. We looked at many different providers but felt Tuition Tree were able to offer the most individualised service for my daughter’s needs. As an added bonus their facilities are safe, clean and state of the art.

Tuition Tree has been a godsend for my family. My son has always struggled with maths but since he started attending classes at Tuition Tree, he has made remarkable progress. The tutors are fantastic - they are patient, friendly, and always willing to go the extra mile to help my son understand difficult concepts. The small class sizes are perfect for him - he gets the individual attention he needs to succeed. The staff are amazing too - they always greet us with a smile and are happy to answer any questions we have. I cannot thank Tuition Tree enough for the positive impact they have had on my son's education. He is now more confident and motivated than ever before. I highly recommend Tuition Tree to anyone looking for a top-notch tutoring service!

My daughter has had a few lessons with Mr Kumar so far. Mr Kumar, the head of Tuition Tree, has high expectations and shows a commitment to raising my daughter’s educational achievements during every lesson. We feel very blessed to have found Tuition Tree and to have lessons with Mr Kumar. He treats my daughter with respect and consideration and clearly shows concern for her development as a learner on her 11+ journey. Mr Kumar has tremendous knowledge of the 11+ which instils our faith in his lesson delivery during every session. Lessons are fun, interactive and creative whilst remaining challenging and inspiring. My daughters confidence in her maths ability has already started to strength which has been a pleasure to see. The classroom is spacious, smart and warm(!) with a calm relaxed colour scheme decorated with educational visual aids, all very conducive to focussed teaching and learning, my daughter loves it. We couldn’t be more grateful to have found Tuition Tree. Time and money is extremely well spent here, every lesson is a wonderful delight! I couldn’t recommend Tuition Tree enough. If you want your child to have the best chance of passing the 11+ I wouldn’t hesitate to choose Tuition Tree! Thank you for your time and encouragement towards my daughter so far, Mr Kumar! It’s very much appreciated. 👍🏻

Rating: 5 / 5

So far so good! My experience with Mr Kumar has been very positive. He has always explained clearly what the expectations are for the session as well aa advised on the longer term direction which I have found enlightening. My son enjoys his sessions and has engaged so well. I usually find it difficult to get my son to settle with a new teacher, however it has become quite a success in a short space of time. Me and the family look forward to Adam learning more and maybe teaching us a thing or two 😊. The sessions are at an advanced level beyond his year group and is giving him quite a challenge that he is embracing and very excited about learning more.

Rita has helped our daughter to achieve her GCSE with care and compassion and patience. In the 6 months she was tutoring our daughter she believed in her. Our daughter felt comfortable and build a rapport up with Rita. We would highly recommend her. Thank you Rita.

Vicky has been a fantastic tutor for my daughter for 8 years right up to her GCSE exams. She tailored her lessons to my daughter's needs boosting her confidence. Vicky also greatly helped my son by providing a couple of adhoc lessons to assist him with understanding some very difficult equations on his electrical course. As a result both passed their exams. I highly recommend and wish Vicky all the best.

Rating: 5 / 5

Vicky is such a talented tutor, my daughter had an English teacher at school that was focusing too much on the negative. She and my son had had lessons with Vicky before (in yr6) so I felt confident she’d be the perfect person to give my daughter (yr10) the boost she needed. She had weekly lessons with Vicky up until going through her GCSEs and the change in her attitude towards learning and also her confidence in her own abilities has been seriously dramatic in the last few months. Now she’s actually really looking forward to getting her GCSE results!! I’ve already put my son on Vicky’s list to give him a boost as he starts yr11. I’ll be forever grateful and can’t recommend Vicky enough, education is so important and Vicky teaches in a patient and empowering way!

Rating: 5 / 5

Rita is such a lovely tutor, she took the time out of her day to make sure my daughter has the right work to complete and to ensure that she is getting the right tasks in order to do well in her gcses. With Rita my daughter was able to jump 2 whole grades which is a massive improvement. I could not recommend Rita enough, she is very good at what she does!

I highly recommend Neil Arnold for maths tutoring. My son was doing A level maths and was struggling a bit. Neil’s knowledge, enthusiasm, and skills to teach maths gave my son the confidence to get his grade up over 2 years and ended up with a fantastic result. I’m very grateful for the support you gave my son.

Rating: 5 / 5

Neil was incredibly helpful in preparing my child for his exams. His patience, expertise and high-impact teaching style made a significant difference in my son's confidence and understanding of the material. I would highly recommend The Pass Masters to any parent looking for a dedicated and effective tutor.

Rating: 5 / 5

My son had a great experience with online learning thanks to Neil's professionalism and accuracy and how he delivers the programme made my son to think out of the box, use his imagination, brainstorm and enjoy the group lessons despite the challenge. I would definitely recommend Neil to my friends and I already did😃

Rating: 5 / 5

Having known and worked with Neil for many years I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him. I have Watched kids excel in maths under his teaching. He is genuinely interested in maths and the importance if this at school, in careers and in everyday life. His passion for his subject is remarkable. Having been in the special needs sector I've seen my students improve and find a new appreciation for Maths. I wouldn't hesitate to have Neil tutor my own children

Thank you for being a great teacher and with your help my son has passed the 11plus exam. Even after the results were published he was still available to discuss the school options with us. I would highly recommend Feraz to anyone planning to sit the exam.

Rating: 5 / 5

We used this tuition centre for our daughter to prepare for her 11+ exams and had a really positive experience. We liked the fact that there were small class sizes of 5-6 children which allowed the tutor to focus his attention on each child individually, in particular their strengths and weaknesses, as well as building up a good rapport with ourselves and our child. One of the main differences we found with A+ Tuition (compared to some larger well known centres) was that the tutor actually took the time to get to know our child from the outset, for example by asking us questions about her SATS results and school reports- we didn’t get this from any of the other centres we enquired at, they only told us the class times and cost. Thanks to the tutor’s support and guidance our daughter passed the 11+ and secured a place in our preferred grammar school.

Rating: 5 / 5

Good tuition centre. Thanks to teacher for his efforts, time to time advices and tips. Mock tests also helped my son to prepare for his 11+.

Rating: 5 / 5

The tutoring has been great, boosting my A level maths grade even when close to exams. Feraz gave me confidence with tougher questions and broke down the content well. Def recommend!
