FAQs

What if my child feels nervous about starting at the London Finchley centre? 

Starting somewhere new can feel daunting, but our warm, welcoming team specialises in helping children settle in and feel at home from day one. We take time to understand how your child learns best, so they can progress at their own pace in a supportive environment. Book a free trial to experience our approach and meet the team who'll be supporting your child's journey.

Is your curriculum the same as in school? 

Absolutely – everything we teach is carefully aligned with the school curriculum to support and enhance what children are learning in class. Rather than focusing on specific homework tasks, we develop the skills and confidence that help children tackle any challenge independently.

Our tutors regularly work with students from Wren Academy Finchley, Moss Hall Junior School and Christ's College Finchley, as well as other schools in the local area.

Can I rearrange my sessions? 

Of course! We understand that life gets busy, so we've built flexibility into everything we do. Our London Finchley tuition centre operates Tuesday through Saturday with multiple time slots available, so you can easily reschedule to fit around your family's needs.

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.
