If this is your first class on outschool, sign up using my referral code ellygb0C to get $20 off! In today's competitive academic landscape, achieving high scores on entrance exams is crucial, especially with top schools demanding more from their students. In these personalised tutoring sessions, once the specific school or exam system is identified, I conduct an initial assessment to pinpoint areas of improvement. This assessment serves as a home learning activity to be independently completed. Subsequently, my sessions are designed to address these knowledge gaps. This includes various approaches such as: - Engaging in practice questions - Revisiting foundational concepts to identify and rectify misconceptions - Incorporating hands-on activities to enhance retention - Applying learned knowledge to diverse scenarios to foster adaptability I also infuse fun games and activities strategically to maintain an enjoyable learning environment. Some examples of the types of things that I can work out with your learner are: - English Comprehension - Essay Writing - Narrative Writing - Maths - Verbal Reasoning - Non-Verbal Reasoning Here are testimonials from satisfied clients: "We were initially anxious about Rosie's progress, but with tutoring, she astonishingly scored over 95% on all tests! It's truly the best investment we've made!" - Sharon P "Mrs. New played a pivotal role in securing placements for both my sons in one of the country's top schools! Her support extended beyond tutoring by providing invaluable advice for us as parents. Thank you, Mrs. New!" - David H

Supply List
If children are able to type, the lessons work best using Google Docs, so that I can see what they are writing and edit it with them in live time. Please make sure that you have an account set up and logged on for the lesson. If children cannot or do not want to type we can easily use pen and paper, but please make sure that it is a dark pen that I will be able to see on camera. There will also be exam questions to edit in on screen so the lesson works best if children are using hardware that allows them to annotate. Some printed resources may be required, but I will give due notice of these.
External Resources
Learners will not need to use any apps or websites beyond the standard Outschool tools.
