As a former Head Girl and Deputy Head of a prestigious private school, I have firsthand experience with the 4+, 7+, 11+, and 13+ entrance exams. Having successfully navigated these challenges myself and secured a place at Bancroft’s School, where I studied for seven years, I understand the journey from both a personal and academic perspective.

My track record over the past few years has been exceptional, with over 72 students gaining entry into top private and grammar schools, including:

• Bancroft’s
• Brentwood
• Chelmsford
• Chigwell
• City of London Boys
• City of London Girls
• Godolphin and Latymer
• Haberdashers
• Ilford County
• King Edward’s
• Queenswood
• Latymer
• North London Collegiate
• St Paul's Boys
• St Paul's Girls
• Westcliff
• Westminster
• Woodford County

One of the most rewarding aspects of tutoring for me is the opportunity to shape the future of young students, giving them a strong start and the tools they need to achieve their dreams.

Tutoring Experience

With over 6 years of experience in tutoring Maths, English, Verbal Reasoning, and Non-Verbal Reasoning for students ranging from age 3 to GCSE, I bring a wealth of knowledge and expertise to my teaching.

I tutor international students from Hong Kong, Singapore and China with a China-based tuition agency, alongside students from Italy with an Italy-based tuition agency. Tutoring for these students is predominantly for entrance exams to prestigious British schools.

Tutoring Approach

Dear Parents,

I’m a friendly and approachable tutor dedicated to helping your child excel. My first step is to assess their unique strengths and areas for growth, allowing me to craft a personalized teaching plan designed to unlock their full potential. I’m proud to say that many parents have thanked me for the positive impact I’ve had on their children’s progress.

I create a warm and engaging learning environment while maintaining clear expectations for focus and homework completion. My lessons are enjoyable and effective, ensuring that students are motivated and on track to achieve their best.

Please note that if you would like me to travel to your home, there is an additional fee of £50. Most lessons are held online or at my location, but I do offer home visits upon request. This fee remains the same regardless of whether you have more than one child needing tutoring on the same evening.

I have found that tutoring has the profound ability to transform a student's confidence and life by providing personalised support and encouragement. Through targeted instruction and positive reinforcement, students often experience a boost in self-esteem as they master challenging concepts and see tangible progress. This newfound confidence extends beyond academics, fostering a growth mindset and resilience that impacts all areas of their lives. By equipping students with the skills and assurance they need to overcome obstacles, tutoring empowers them to pursue their goals with greater determination and optimism, setting them on a path to success and fulfillment.

Best wishes,
Sarah
