Clients

 

Traditionally, our clients come from a variety of backgrounds and with different needs. Some are simply unhappy with their child’s learning environment, which may be too demanding or not demanding enough. Others, while happy in their current school, need more intensive coaching to enable their child to meet certain entry test requirements or attain scholarships. A significant number arrive at Tuesday Tutors with unspecified difficulties: these may resolve in a 1:1 situation, or they may prompt further investigation.

While we do coach very young children for pre-prep entry, the majority of our clients require support with 10+/11+ entry for state and private schools.  As preparation for such entry tests may need to be extensive, it is suggested that the initial assessment is arranged at an early date.

Our students include children at highly regarded private schools, both day and boarding, as well as those in the more average London state school.   While children in lower achieving schools may need substantially longer preparation time, we expect all our students to do well. A smaller number of clients ask for ongoing support in school: this includes dyslexic support, remedial Maths , English as a second language, GCSE/A-Level English. Next year should also provide higher level Maths support.

Tuesday Tutors aims to encourage learning in a series of structured one-to-one sessions. Group sessions are held at key times of the year. Learners are assessed initially to determine their level and learning style, with the option of brief or in-depth reports and follow up.

Advice sessions/private consultations are offered for school selection and entry procedure. Family coaching, an optional family pack and book-buying service are also available.
