FAQs
What if my child feels nervous about starting at the Shirley Solihull centre?
That’s completely normal. Our Shirley team is warm, welcoming and experienced in helping children settle in quickly. We’ll make sure they feel supported from day one. A free trial is a great way to meet our team.
Is your curriculum the same as in school?
Yes, our tuition is aligned to the school curriculum. We don’t cover school or homework - instead, our tutors focus on giving children the skills, knowledge and confidence they need to thrive on their own. We’ve supported children from nearby schools such as Woodlands Infant School, Light Hall School, Tudor Grange Academy and more!
Can I rearrange my sessions?
Of course. With our Shirley centre open Tuesday to Saturday, families can choose times that fit around school, clubs and weekend plans with ease.
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.
