First Class Private Tutoring
From Early Years to university, we offer tutoring to support your child at every stage of their development.

(4-13)
Prep School Age
Before age 4, children learn best through play — we don’t recommend formal tutoring this early. Instead, an Early Years specialist can run playful sessions that build the curiosity, communication and teamwork skills to prepare children for the 4+ exam. We track Early Years progress using Arc Pathway milestones.
From prep school onward, qualified primary teachers consolidate what your child is learning in class using interactive tools and positive reinforcement to build confidence in the classroom and beyond.
Common Entrance Exams
Every year, we prepare students for 7+, 8+ and 11+ entrance exams — drawing on first-hand experience and school-specific resources. Each child is matched with a tutor based on their academic background and teaching experience, learning style, and teaching approach, because that rapport is what drives results.
Common Entrance teachers go through a rigorous selection process. Many lead scholarship clubs or help to design entrance exams at competitive schools themselves. We start with an initial assessment and send weekly progress updates, plus guidance on school short lists, applications, interviews, and group assessments.
(13-18)
Senior School Age – Grammar & Secondary Schools
Ages 13–18 bring the most intense testing of a child’s education — whether that’s 13+ exams, GCSEs, A-Levels or the IB. To support children with multiple subjects, we build a co-ordinated “tutor team” around them.
We offer qualified teachers, including Heads of Department, SENDCos, and examiners, and match students with the right subject specialist — someone who can identify knowledge gaps, develop revision and exam skills, and build a lasting love for learning.
Tell us more about your child’s ability, learning style, and recent school exams, and we’ll recommend a tailored plan from there.
University Admissions
We help students secure places at the world’s top universities — from Oxbridge to the Ivy League. For international families, we advise on the right A Level, IB or Pre-U choices for both UK and US ambitions, and go beyond the curriculum with reading and podcast lists that build real intellectual curiosity.
Support runs from 3 months to a year, starting with a strong UCAS application or personal essay. Experienced teachers then prepare students for admissions tests — BMAT/UCAT, LNAT, TSA, MAT, SAT and ACT — and in the 6 months before interviews, we run mock interviews to build communication, independent thinking and problem-solving skills.
Online Tutoring
Elite British Educators, Anywhere In The World
One-to-one lessons with fully qualified teachers — live, interactive, and built around your family’s schedule.
Whether your child boards, splits time between homes, or lives abroad, online tutoring connects them with the best UK-qualified teachers from anywhere in the world. We offer fully online or blended (online and in-person) lessons, so they can build a real relationship with one regular tutor.
Five years ago, our first fully-online student achieved top A Level grades — she’s now at Cambridge. Since then we’ve built a dedicated online team who all meet the same high standards as our in-person tutors, and support hundreds of students a year.
The Benefits of Online Tuition
Access to the best teachers
In-person tuition limits you to local teachers. Online opens up the whole of the UK — ideal if you need 11+ school-specific expertise, or a specialist in a shortage subject like Chemistry, Physics or Economics.
Convenience and flexibility
No travel time means more flexibility on scheduling. Lessons can continue through holidays, at boarding school, or across two homes — wherever your child is.
Creative ways of learning
Online lessons can be just as interactive as in-person ones — often more so. Teachers use online flashcards, gamified quizzes, and digital mind mapping, together with visually engaging slides and worksheets. Shared Google docs enable collaborative working and Google Drive folders ensure every note is saved and easy to find at revision time.
Our Locations
Teachers are located in London, Manchester, Bristol, Oxford and Cambridge.
London
In-person lessons across Zones 1–6 and commutable areas (travel charges may apply further out). Outside central London, we recommend online, half/full-day, or blended tutoring.
The Rest Of The UK
For the rest of the UK, we offer residential tuition — immersive, intensive placements from several days to several weeks, run hundreds of times over the years.
