FAQs
What if my child feels nervous about starting at the Colchester centre?
Don’t worry! Our compassionate team have helped hundreds of children settle in. We take time to make sure your child feels welcome and supported from day one. Book a free trial to get a feel for our centre and meet our team to see if our tuition is right for you and your family.
Is your curriculum the same as in school?
Yes – our private tuition is mapped to the National Curriculum, but we tailor the pace and content to your child’s individual needs. Many of our tutors have taught students from The Gilberd School, St Thomas More’s Catholic Primary School, and Hamilton Primary School in the area.
Whilst we don’t help with specific school projects or homework in our sessions, our support strengthens your child’s ability to tackle tasks independently.
Can I rearrange my sessions?
Yes! We aim to be as flexible as possible, allowing you to fit your sessions around busy schedules. Our Colchester centre is open Tuesdays to Saturdays to give you the best chance of finding a time that works for you and your family.
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 all done on computers?
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.
