FAQs

What if my child feels nervous about starting at the Birmingham Handsworth centre? 

That’s completely normal. Our friendly team will take the time to make sure your child feels welcome and supported from the moment they arrive. A free trial is a great way to meet our tutors and get a feel for the centre before your child starts.

Is your curriculum the same as in school? 

Yes, our tuition follows the school curriculum, but we adapt the pace and content to suit your child’s needs. Many of our tutors have taught students from St Augustine’s Catholic Primary School, Holy Trinity CE Primary School, Westminster Primary School, and Broadway Academy, among others in the area.

Our tutors don’t assist with school projects or homework in our sessions; they focus on developing lasting skills and techniques so children can thrive independently. 

Can I rearrange my sessions? 

Yes! Our Birmingham Handsworth centre offers flexible sessions from Wednesday to Saturday, so you can easily find a time that fits around your busy family life.

Do you support children with SEN? 

Absolutely! Whilst we are not SEN specialists, our individual approach and inclusive environment have proved highly successful with children with SEN such as autism, ADHD, dyslexia and more. 

We’ll discuss during your first visit how we can best support your child’s needs. It’s important to us to get SEN tuition right for every child.

Do you set homework? 

No, but your child will have unlimited access to our smart learning tool for extra practice at home whenever they like.

Is your tuition entirely computer-based? 

We combine the best of both worlds, utilising smart edtech alongside personalised support from real tutors. Your child will use a computer to answer tailored questions based on their abilities, whilst receiving instant help when they need it from our expert tutors.
